I just read a really fascinating/disturbing article about soldiers exposed to chemical weapons in Iraq, but ordered not to tell anyone about it because the only chemical weapons in the country were those that had been made by the US and other western countries.
I read that too...the comments on Twitter were annoying because they were all "HAHAH BUSH WAS RIGHT YOU LIBTARDS". Clearly they hadn't read the article, or noticed the little problem with the weapons' provenance...
Also, these were all unused chemical weapons that had been sitting in storage with other armaments since the time of the Iran/Iraq War that even Saddam had all but forgotten about.
i'd draw a parallel between how we should not be concerned about either, but now i'm afraid that someone is going to complain about me being insensitive by drawing a comparison between two things that shouldn't be compared
