There has been a bit of info on sky news, I think they are very embarrassed by this one.
Doubt it, tv crews have shown film of the place; it was covered in camoflage, why? the UN didn't know there was a chemical installation there, suspicous no?
 
weird, ive been watching sky news since about 3:30 and i just caught the 6oclock BBC news and there was nowt about it, which is why i asked. Im not doubting it as i have read the links, just woundered why there was no TV coverage.

Emarrassed by the fact an Isreali journalist spilled the beans on an unconfimed finding whipping up the fervour in Israel, and that particular finding was later confirmed as not producing chemical weapons, although in the past it may have been. And an example as there have been many unconfirmed reports coming through that they are trying to get a grip on in the propaganda war.:) If it wasn't a chemical weapons plant why would the UN need to know about it.

"The huge 100-acre complex, which is surrounded by a electrical fence, is perhaps the first illegal chemical plant to be uncovered by US troops in their current mission in Iraq. The surrounding barracks resemble an abandoned slum. "




Jerusalem Post Article

So, all these satelites and stuff, that can read newspapers over your shoulder, and all these weapon inspectors and stuff, didnt notice this berfore??

U.S. military investigators have found no evidence that chemical weapons have been made in the chemical plant siezed by coalition forces in An Najaf, a senior defense official said. The official also said that intelligence gathered before the war had identified the plant as part of Iraq's chemical weapons program. Preliminary evidence indicated that it was a chemical site, but investigators have determined that it has not been used in at least five years.
