Khamisiyah Revised
More Links on the the Khamisiyah incident are below. Longtime readers of my weblog know the deal, but for the benefit of new readers, the Khamisiyah incident occured when the U.S. Army stupidly blew up a chemical weapons dump in 1991 exposing the deployment force to sarin, cyclosarin and other nasty toxins. To add insult to injury, DoD lied about it for 10 years while vets grew sicker and many died. By the way, the current VP was Secretary of Defense when this cover-up started.
