BAGHDAD, Iraq - Insurgents exploded a truck carrying chlorine gas canisters Wednesday — the second such "dirty" chemical attack in two days — while a U.S. official said ground fire apparently forced the downing of a Black Hawk helicopter. All nine aboard the aircraft were rescued....

Weapons of Mass Destruction, a term used to describe munitions with the capacity to indiscriminately kill large numbers of human beings

The original WMD's are in Syria.
We went into Iraq to enforce the Gulf War cease fire. We had to because the UN refused to enforce the 17 resolutions.

Of course there are, it is a documented fact that there were WMD. Where they went is the question. Does anyone actually believe Saddam destroyed them out of the goodness of his heart? Oh well, doesn't matter anymore now, we need to find a way for Iraqis to WANT democracy, if they don't want it, we'll never succeed.

Bush was looking under the curtains for them in the Oval Office.
There were no WMD in Iraq when Saddam was the President, by now there maybe. But Bush said he knew right where they were, he could put his hand on them, another one of his lies. Where is Laura, did she finally get smart and leave his old drunk a**

You aren't very smart are you? The insurgents had regular bombs and they placed them under a truck that was transporting chlorine canisters. The bombs that are produced by insurgents themselves aren't dirty, but it is what they are blowing up that can be.

Oh my God. I didn't know that Chlorine gas was a weapon of mass destruction. My god they could have flown that tanker truck over to los angeles and detonated in the middle of los angeles.
My God we spent a TRILLION dollars and didn't find the truck loaded with chlorine gas. My god if I had now that there was chlorine gas in Iraq I would have supported nuking them.

We just answered this question barely an hour ago. A regular bomb strapped to a chlorine truck isn't a WMD.

Too bad these people just don't get it. Maybe they should all watch this video. CN8 in New Jersey interviewed 3 former terrorists who are 'now practicing tolerance'. They give the answers and it's gonna knock your socks off. For certain you'll say..'to hell with political correctness.' Guaranteed...

I don't think this would qualify... since they didn't really make the clorine, they just blew it up...
while it may be a chemical attack, they aren't making them... so it's not really the conventional WMD that is discussed when the WMD issues is discussed
