WMD's in Iraq
A most interesting story has broken today; it seems the Defense Department has been sitting for months on the information that we found 500 chemical weapons shells in Iraq. Captain's Quarters has extensive coverage (subject link); Power Line has more.
The information was made public thanks to the persistence of Senator Rick Santorum and Congressman Peter Hoekstra. I don't understand why this information wasn't made public long before now; at minimum, regardless of how old the weapons were, it shows that Saddam definitely intended to deceive the U.N. weapons inspectors.
Apparently there is quite a bit of info not yet declassified by the DoD, so there may be more to this story coming down the road.
