Iraq may have used Sarin nerve agents on British forces.
Evidence of Iraq's weapons of mass destruction was finally found yesterday as the inquest into the death of British soldiers used as guinea pigs by the Ministry of Defence in their Porton Down laboratories got under way.
As evidence was given revealing that MOD officials knowingly tested Sarin nerve agents on British citizens in the 1950's, and that many deaths may have resulted, Tony Blair declared himself "thrilled" that evidence of WMD has finally been found.
"This is more than a smoking gun..." He told reporters outside Downing Street. "What we have here is real evidence that real British soldiers have been killed by toxic nerve agents...
Now I don't want to be accused of spin here, but it seems quite obvious that testing nerve agents is not something that Brits are likely to do to Brits... While I'm not saying anything official at this point, it seems fairly easy to deduce that not only were those applying the Sarin gas probably heavily bearded Arab-types but also that the idea that they may have been Iraqi intelligence infiltrators within the MOD is not beyond the bounds of possibility."
