Chem Lab in Fallujah - Update

Earlier today it was suggested that we "not ruin the antiwar establishment's holiday weekend" by telling them about the chemical lab that was discovered in Fallujah - but someone must have let is slip; they know! I also updated you on the fact that a Zarqawi lieutant was arrested near the same location.

Now there is a story on Aljazeera reporting that former UN chief weapons inspector Han Blix would be surprised if the lab were capable of creating weapons. Mr. Blix states:

Many of these stories evaporate when they are looked at more closely," he told the mainly student crowd. "The chances [that the laboratory could produce weapons] are, I think, relatively small. I would be surprised if it was something real.
Is this wishful thinking or insightfulness - I believe it to be the former.
