Isis jihadists 'seize Saddam's chemical weapons

What I think will happen is the US military will start bombing, but then the bombing will shift to Syria and the Jihadi's will finally overrun Assad's regime. Also the Iranian regime that currently controls almost all of Bagdad will be out and a more pro-west government will be installed. Very good for precious metals as it all plays out.

I thought investigators never found any chemical weapon stockpiles. This "chemical weapons" line of propaganda seems to be a ruse. Announce they've got 'em, and then use that as pretense to start a military conflict. Seems to be the same playbook we've seen before.

I agree.

A quick search of the above reveals no reliable source for such news but many less reliable ones carrying the same if not exact headline. I'd consider this one a bit of sensationalism.

Surprised they are not blaming this one on all the Latino Teens crossing the border. :)

They took the FACTORY where he made them, not any verified weapons themselves. Big difference.
