[usa320]

BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- Iraqi soldiers have discovered chemical materials in a Falluja lab, while a top aide of wanted terrorist Abu Musab al-Zarqawi has been arrested in Mosul, Iraq's interim national security adviser said Thursday.

The reports came as U.S. and Iraqi forces conducted anti-insurgency operations in Falluja, Mosul and south of Baghdad in the province of Babil.

Iraq's interim National Security Adviser Kasim Dawood announced discovery of the lab with chemical materials which he said was "manufacturing death, intoxication and assassination."

"We have also discovered in this laboratory a pamphlet and instructions showing how to manufacture explosives and toxins," Dawood said. "And they also talk about the production of anthrax."

Most likely operated by former regime scientists

I had to take a second look too. I was almost cheering! Still it's a few steps ahead.

I'd read they found some sort of IED factory

should be interesting if they do find chemical labs because the administration has basically said 'woops our bad, atleast we got saddam'

Just because they found it now, doesn't mean that it was Saddam's. This could also be from the rebels.

How strange a chemical weapons lab and no chemical weapons apart from those dodgy old shells from the Iran Iraq war that were rigged as IED's. Anyone with any chemicals experience will tell you it only takes a couple hours and a few easily obtained chemicals and hey presto you have a very effective Chemical IED.

Saddam's WMDs used to justify war.

No WMDs found.

Chemical weapons plant operated under the noses of US forces.

All together now: The world has become a safer place. The world has become a safer place. The world has become a safer place.

Well, that sucks that he didnt arrested, I was wondering that did rebels used any chemical weapons on coalitions while they were on a mass operations in Falluja?? I am pretty sure that they did since they are seeking a better weapons as long as coalitions are destroying their weapon caches.

"Iraq's interim National Security Adviser Kasim Dawood announced..."

Iraq's interim National Security Advisor is hardly qualified to make any announcements about the purpose of the lab :)

People wouldnt believe there were WMD in Iraq even if thousands of people died in a gas attack. They would still doubt it.

Actually if insurgents were going to use chemical weapons it would be much smarter to put them in mortars because more people would exposed then if it was released from the ground.
