Info on mobile labs from March
In an Associated Press article published at CBSnews (among other places, I'm sure) on March 17th, 2003, there's a little noticed, but now potentially relevant tidbit:
Iraq also handed over videotapes of mobile biological weapons laboratories to inspectors. Iraq says the videos show the laboratories do not violate U.N. resolutions.I think it would be good at this point if whomever is currently in posession of those tapes could 1) confirm they exist, 2) confirm if they are the same mobile labs that Bush is now heralding as "proof" of a WMD program and 3) confirm if they did or did not violate UN resolutions.
If it turns out that they are the same mobile labs that we were given evidence of prior to the start of the war - and that they weren't considered violations of the UN resolutions at that point, then that would pretty much discredit Bush's more recent claims about them. Still, until more can be found out about these tapes and what's on them, it's impossible to say for sure on way or the other.
