Oh, THOSE Weapons of Mass Destruction
I think that we have a clue as to what happened to some of the WMD's that the U.N. inspectors said were not in Iraq. They were certainly right about these not being there.
(Reuters) Aug 30, 2007 - United Nations officials found vials of dangerous chemicals, which had been removed from Iraq a decade ago, in a U.N. building in New York.... The material was phosgene, a chemical warfare agent.... The Iraqi weapons inspectors came across the material as they were closing their offices, which are housed in a building near the U.N. headquarters in Manhattan....
Oops. I bet that these guys were just as surprised as Hillary Clinton was when someone found the Rose Law Firm billing records in the private living area of the White House. Maybe Hussein or the U.N. thought to have Sandy Berger sneak out the rest of the WMD's in his socks.
Keep moving, folks. There's nothing to see here. No evidence of WMD's. Keep your eyes forward and keep moving. No talking.

It was discovered on an inventory. I'd like to know, if this stuff was there since 1996, when was the last time these guys did an inventory?
At the ABC "Blotter" was this little tidbit:
"Former U.N. weapons inspectors told ABC News.com that vials of phosgene had also been used by inspectors in Iraq to help calibrate air sampling instruments."
So THAT'S where they went to calibrate their equipment. A UN building in new York.

I prefer to let people speak for themselves, that way I don't make a mistake quoting facts.
