Bloody lucky they got Ghadafi before he could use them, if they are operational that is.

Chemical weapons would not surprise me really. Maybe jpost and agi.it mistranslated chemical weapons to nuclear weapons.

Killer Pigeon · 31-10-2011 04:25AM

Sorry, we need a credible Zionist post before this can be confirmed.

If this is true, which I doubt, I would hope that the nukes are secured before the extremist Islamic elements within Libya get their hands on them.

General General · 31-10-2011 04:26AM

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKK!

I have 5 grand on with Paddy Power that Iran will be the next found with Nuclear weapons.

Please let this be a fabrication.

Libya’s prime minister confirms presence of chemical weapons says inspectors due this week

By Associated Press, Published: October 30

TRIPOLI, Libya — Libya’s interim prime minister on Sunday confirmed the presence of chemical weapons in Libya and said foreign inspectors would arrive later this week to deal with the issue.
Prime Minister Mahmoud Jibril said Libya has no interest in keeping such weapon

“We would like to assure you that the new Libya will be a peaceful Libya and that it is in our interest to have no weapons in Libya,” he told reporters.
Last week, Ian Martin, the top U.N. envoy to Libya, told the U.N. Security Council that undeclared chemical weapons sites have been located in Libya.
At the time, he also expressed concern over command and control of chemical and nuclear material sites.
Jibril, who has announced his resignation ahead of the formation of a new interim government, did not provide any details about the chemical weapons.
“There are international organizations taking care of this issue,” he said, adding that representatives of those organizations are due to arrive in Libya later in the week.
A Russian-drafted U.N. resolution, to be voted on this week, calls on Libyan authorities to destroy stockpiles of chemical weapons in coordination with international authorities.

Associated press is a bit more trustworthy imo. Title changed.

LighterGuy · 31-10-2011 04:46AM

I call government media spin on this.
Pretty sure the UN/US etc knew Ghadaffi had these.

Why does neither link mention chemical weapons?
Libya has had a nuclear program since the 80s, some enriched uranium does not equal nuclear missiles.
It's known that Libya has had chemical weapons for some time.

Btw, they should definitely remove them before the rebels get their hands on them. Some rebels are muslim extremists linked to Al-Qaeda.

Remember, he never did actually use them.

Capt'n Midnight · 31-10-2011 11:08AM

If it's true that Libya had Nukes then the big question is whose nukes are they? Because Libya didn't have the technology to make them despite many attempts to get started.

http://www.world-nuclear-news.org/NP-Libya_moving_forward_with_nuclear_power_plans-0801107.html

The north African country already has a Russian 10 MWt research reactor, which has been operating since 1981 and is under International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) safeguards. France, Argentina, Ukraine and Russia have all signed agreements on the peaceful use of nuclear energy with Libya since its voluntary decision to halt a clandestine uranium enrichment program and fully open itself to IAEA inspections in 2003. Canada has also signed a memorandum of understanding with the country.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/sep/22/libyan-rebels-gaddafis-chemical-weapons?newsfeed=true

But the international watchdog, the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, had stated it believed that Libya had kept 9.5 tonnes of mustard gas at a secret location: it is that which appears to have now been captured and secured.

It's not the Jews, it's the Zionists. Jeez, I hate when people try to equate anti-Zionism to antisemitism. Gawd.

A stink-bomb might be classified as a chemical weapon.

"Hey guys, we found a class-A stink-bomb in Gaddafi's personal armory."

"Let's just call it a 'chemical weapon' for added effect, it will make this NATO backed mission look even more worthwhile."

ejmaztec · 31-10-2011 01:40PM

While all the fighting was going on, NATO people were wandering around with truckloads of chemical weapons, burying them as they whistled nonchalantly on their way, so that they could be "found" later on.
