U.S. Unloading WMD in Iraq
TEHRAN (Mehr News Agency) - Over the past few days, in the wake of the
bombings in Karbala and the ideological disputes that delayed the
signing of Iraq's interim constitution, there have been reports that
U.S. forces have unloaded a large cargo of parts for constructing
long-range missiles and weapons of mass destruction (WMD) in the
southern ports of Iraq.
A reliable source from the Iraqi Governing Council, speaking on
condition of anonymity, told the Mehr News Agency that U.S. forces,
with the help of British forces stationed in southern Iraq, had made
extensive efforts to conceal their actions.
He added that the cargo was unloaded during the night as attention was
still focused on the aftermath of the deadly bombings in Karbala and
the signing of Iraq's interim constitution.
The source said that in order to avoid suspicion, ordinary cargo ships
were used to download the cargo, which consisted of weapons produced
in the 1980s and 1990s.
He mentioned the fact that the United States had facilitated Iraq's
WMD program during the 1980-1988 Iran-Iraq and said that some of the
weapons being downloaded are similar to those weapons, although
international inspectors had announced Saddam Hussein's Baath regime
had destroyed all its WMD.
The source went on to say that the rest of the weapons were probably
transferred in vans to an unknown location somewhere in the vicinity
of Basra overnight.
"Most of these weapons are of Eastern European origin and some parts
are from the former Soviet Union and the Eastern Bloc. The U.S.
obtained them through confiscations during sales of banned arms over
the past two decades," he said.
This action comes as certain U.S. and Western officials have been
pointing out the fact that no weapons of mass destruction have been
discovered in Iraq and the issue of Saddam's trial begins to take
center stage.
In addition, former chief UN weapons inspector Hans Blix has
emphasized that the U.S. and British intelligence agencies issued
false reports on Iraq leading to the U.S. attack.
Meanwhile, the suspicious death of weapons inspector David Kelly is
also an unresolved issue in Britain.
------Occupation Forces Official Claims to Have No Information About
Transfer of WMD to Iraq -------
A security official for the coalition forces in Iraq said that he has
not received any information about the unloading of weapons of mass
destruction in ports in southern Iraq.
Shane Wolf told the Mehr News Agency that the occupation forces have
received no reports on such events, but said he hoped that the
coalition forces would find the Iraqi weapons of mass destruction one
day.
Coalition forces and inspectors have so far been unable to find any
Iraqi weapons of mass destruction. The U.S. invaded Iraq under the
pretext that Iraq possessed a stockpile of weapons of mass
destruction.

 U.S. Unloading WMD in Iraq
Namib la cosa mi puzza molto per due ragioni:
1. Agenzie iraniane negli ultimi tempi hano diffuso notizie poi 
regolarmente smentite come, ultimo esempio, lacattura di Bin Laden.
2. Volendo portare WMD in IRaq la cosa piu' semplice da fare di nascosto 
non e' portare missili balistici, che sono difficilmente occultabili, 
bensi' agenti chimici e/o i loro precursori. Nella massa di traffico 
logistico tra gli USA, le basi USA in europa e le forze stazionate in 
Iraq puoi far passare bidoni e bidoni senza che nessuno ne abbia il 
minimo sospetto.

Io penso che sia impossibile per gli usa fabbricare e portare in Iraq una
quantità credibili di armi di quel tipo. Tutta l'infrastruttura per produrre
gas nervini è stata smantellata e quelle per agenti biologici sono decenni
che non è più attiva senza contare che i servizi di paesi non propriamente
compiacenti sulla questione (Francia Russia Germani Cina ecc) avranno preso
le loro precauzioni. Senza poi contare le possibili fughe di notizie da
parte dei servizi usa... Insomma impossibile o quasi e se possibile troppo
rischioso visto che nel caso venga scoperto l'inghippo il partito
Repubblicano si sognerebbe la presidenza per i prossimi 20 anni.
