ITEMS IN THE NEWS

Could someone explain these things? Why did the European Union find
Iraqi WMDs? Why did they watch as Syria tested them in Sudan during the
summer of 2004? Why did Libya admit to many tons of WMDs materials in
2004 and allow UN / EU inspections? Can you explain why the Bulletin of
the Atomic Scientists mentioned Saddam's atomic program in 1998? Most
of these articles are archived and may require a registration, which is
not malicious, but allows you to access their web sites.
