IF this is true, and not planted as election boost: Were these supplied by United States in 1980's, when Hussein was USA's bed partner?
Is this the same WMD's as a warehouse of beans, Nigerian Aluminum tubes, Hydrogen Gas Truck for balloons, 45 minute WMD lauch, model airplane drones, or 20 year old shell found two months ago.

Chemical Munitions Found by Polish Soldiers in Iraq Date Back to 1980s
By Monika Scislowska Associated Press Writer
Published: Jul 2, 2004
WARSAW, Poland (AP) - Warheads believed to contain the deadly nerve agent cyclosarin that were found by Polish troops in Iraq date back to Saddam Hussein's war with Iran in the 1980s, authorities said Friday.
"Beyond any doubt, the warheads date back to 1980-88 and were used against the Kurds and in the Iraqi-Iranian war," said a statement from the Polish command.
Last month, Polish troops in south-central Iraq recovered 17 rockets for a Soviet-era launcher and two mortar rounds filled with chemical substances, said Lt. Col. Robert Strzelecki, a spokesman for the Polish-led force, in a telephone interview from Iraq.
"Laboratory tests showed the presence in them of cyclosarin, a very toxic gas, five times stronger than sarin and five times more durable," multinational force commander Gen. Mieczyslaw Bieniek told Poland's TVN24 at the force's Camp Babylon headquarters.
"If these warheads, which were still usable, were used on a military base like Camp Babylon, they would have caused unforeseeable damage," Bieniek said.
The tests were done by American experts in the United States and Iraq and are still ongoing.
The munitions were found in a bunker in the Polish sector.
In May, an artillery shell apparently filled with the sarin nerve agent was discovered at the side of the road in Baghdad by U.S. forces. Officials at the time stopped short of claiming the munition was definite evidence of a large weapons stockpile in prewar Iraq or evidence of recent production by Saddam's regime

>17 rockets...2 morter rounds...one artillery shell...from Iran Iraq war...<
Relics from a past war as proof positive?
The US military has 'misplaced' hundreds of times that amount of WMD materials.
The Bush Administration knew where large stockpiles were,
or so they said.
Remember-
Powell showed 'known locations' on maps at the UN.
Or was he talking through his(ahem)Colin?
Use my above link to propaganda central.(RNC)
To read the "news" before the media "report"/repeat it:
"...say"it"in your own words..."
to we the sheeple.
