One shell, apparently dated pre-1991 - this isn't a clear and present
danger. (The production facility for it would be - no signs so far)


Didn't the Iraqis claim they never had any Sarin at all? If that's
the case, doesn't the presence of even one shell prove they did not
abide by the 1991 agreement?

They supposedly only did "research" on binary sarin rounds, and that
*after* 1991.

The existence of this round, at *all*, shows that they weren't complying
with their obligations by informing the UN of the research program.

I'm a little confused. The R&D program is in the UNSCOM report. Are you
saying they did work on this program after 1991? If so, how do we know
the vintage of this shell? Not challenging, not sure I'm reading you
correctly.
