NEW INFORMATION ON CW DEVELOPMENT







COMMENT:







IRAQ'S

CW-RELATED FACILITIES NEAR AL FALLUJAH AND AL HABBANIYAH, FOR

EXAMPLE, WERE ORIGINALLY BELIEVED TO BE FOR PRODUCTION OF PRECURSORS,

NOT CW AGENTS, AND SALMAN PAK WAS THOUGHT TO BE DEDICATED SOLELY

TO BIOLOGICAL WEAPONS DEVELOPMENT. IRAQ HAS PRODUCED LARGE AMOUNTS

OF SULFUR MUSTARD, ANOTHER BLISTER AGENT, BUT NITROGEN MUSTARD WAS

NOT KNOWN TO BE IN ITS ARSENAL. THE FACILITY NEAR MOSUL HAD NOT

SPECIFICALLY BEEN CONNECTED WITH CHEMICAL WARHEAD DEVELOPMENT,

BUT IT CERTAINLY IS CAPABLE OF SUCH AN EFFORT.
