Document Details WMD Recovered

Sen. Rick Santorum (R-Pa.) and Rep. Peter Hoekstra (R-Mich.) announced Wednesday the finding of over 500 munitions or weapons of mass destruction, specifically "sarin- and mustard-filled projectiles," in Iraq.

Reading from unclassified portions of a document developed by the U.S. intelligence community, Santorum said, "Since 2003, coalition forces have recovered approximately 500 weapons munitions which contain degraded mustard or sarin nerve agent. Despite many efforts to locate and destroy Iraq's pre-Gulf War chemical munitions, filled and unfilled pre-Gulf War chemical munitions are assessed to still exist."

I'm sure you won't be hearing about this on the evening news. I am also sure that some people will claim that this isn't enough to qualify as a rebuttal to the often spoken lie that "No WMD's were ever found" because that might just justify the war in their minds. They will also claim that this is a right wing news site, as though that makes the news somehow less worthy. Read and decide for yourself.
