http://www.stern.de/news2/aktuell/zwei-geheime-lager-mit-senfgas-in-libyen-entdeckt-1745738.html I could not find this in the English press but according to German press, two secret storages belonging to Ghadaffi were found. Head of the transitional council said s on Monday. The previous man in charge of chemical weapons for Ghadaffi. Jussef Safi el Din, told the agency AFP that both locations contain mustard gas in a usable condition. In one case it is in weapons and ready for use. In Libyen sind zwei geheime Chemiewaffenlager des langjährigen Machthabers Muammar el Gaddafi entdeckt worden. Dies teilte der Regierungschef des Nationalen Übergangsrats, Mahmud Dschibril, am Montag mit. Der einst unter Gaddafi für die Chemiewaffen zuständige frühere Offizier, Jussef Safi el Din, sagte der Nachrichtenagentur AFP, in den beiden Lagern befinde sich verwendungsfähiges Senfgas. Im einen Fall stehe es sogar bereits in Waffen zum Einsatz bereit. Why didn't he use it? Not enough time ?
I had a couple of hot dogs w/ mustard during the Pats game yesterday, today Ive found I have some mustard gas.
If they were found they weren't very secret were they?...Sounds like another stitch up job along the lines of the secret Iranian prisons.
NP. Actually there are few sites reporting this here: http://www.cnn.com/2011/10/30/world/africa/libya-chemical-weapons/index.html?eref=rss_world
Liebe.. when I was a young adult an staying in Libya with my family we used to go on excursions into the desert.. They was LOTS of stuff from WW2 because nothing ever decomposes in that dry climate.
Not really secret: March 23 2011 http://rt.com/politics/press/izvestiya/mustard-gas-libya-gaddafi-attack/en/
Oh nonsense.. LOLOL Libya is one of the driest place on earth and there is lots and lots of junk left in the desert.. Go and see for yourself instead of making criptic assumptions.
Assumptions? Its a fact margot...and Im not sure why youd dispute it. Your logic is: Its hot and dry in Libya so he couldnt have a facility for WMD production?
Yep a bit like Saddam's WMDs - However , its raise the question IF Gaddafi had such terrible weapons , then WHY did he not use it against the rebels ? .....
You sound surprised that Islamonazi tyrant would have such weapons. Pobably once belonged to Saddam and Libiya got them in a lend lease program Islamo style.
The world would be boring for the far-right extreme if they couldn't think of a new hate-term to label Semites with.
Poltical blacklash. If he would have used a WMD, his country would have been blasted in to the Stone Age.
From Wikipedia. The mustard gas was declared to OPCW, they knew where it was, it was in the process of being destroyed under OPCW supervision when we attacked them.
I am saying that there was stuff in the Libyan desert left over from WW2 that was in mint condition when my family went exploring there.
