I'll have to admit this is one system I have not kept up with. Could be we got rid of some of it, more likely sold it off through a back channel for later use (Israel?). I know old chemical weapons get destroyed (incinerated) at offshore locations, but I've said too much already.
There are plenty of weapons that produce a fireball, those "fuel-air" bombs are pretty wicked. I have only seen this stuff on 60 minutes and in magazines (thank God). I don't expect a CNN guy to know it all, nor the military which approved/reviewed the embedded report to catch all mistakes made.
Naplam would not be the worst thing we have used, it's a tangible.
Has anyone ever figure out what caused Gulf war Syndrome?
