During the invasion the USA said that their troops had found a chemical weapon factory near Najaf, the Shia holy city 100 miles south of Baghdad. On March 24, 2003, this information was revealed to be false, and no more that wishful thinking by the US propaganda machine that wants to find prohibited weapons at all cost. As it happened before, they are only making fools of themselves and, above all, making it clear that they are unreliable.

As the chase for forbidden arms goes on without success on April 12, 2003, the propaganda machine now tells us that they have found some evidences that the Iraqi were hiding some information from the UN weapons inspectors. Iraqis in the know were ordered to take their files, notes and computers home before the arrival of the inspectors according to a document "found" at a security headquarters in Baghdad. We only have to believe it for the moment and until they found more incriminating evidences, real or "planted".
