SkyDekker 1,465 #51 August 28, 2003 QuoteI don't think I heard that, but if I had to guess, it was in reference to SCUDs with chemical agents, not a nuclear capability. It was a huge fear last time, too. They were used in the Iran-Iraq war as well. 45 minutes would assume a SCUD already filled, fueled and in the field, which wasn't likely, but a risk too great for the troops to ignore and not be prepared now those were the scuds in the field that were never found with the WMD that were never found.

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites kiltboy 0 #62 August 28, 2003 I believe Iran and Iraq both used chemical weapons during the Iran Iraq war. I also thought that the suits were found near the Iran border so it makes sense to have protective suits near the border of a country that has exchanged chemical munitions with you in the past.
