Brian Blomquist and Deborah Orin in the NY Post - Iraq: Oops! We Have a Bio Bomb:
Iraq yesterday claimed it suddenly found a biogerm bomb. U.N. weapons inspectors hailed that as "cooperation," but President Bush said Saddam Hussein is just trying "to fool the world one more time.""My wife made me clean out the garage and look what I found! The dog must have hid it back there!"
The United States notes the R-400 biogerm bomb Iraq declared is one of 400 it was known to have in the 1990s. The rest are unaccounted for at present. Until now, Iraq has claimed it had no chemical or biological weapons.
Chief U.N. weapons inspector Hans Blix said Iraq, in a letter, reported finding two R-400 aerial bombs "including one that was likely to be filled with biological stuff." Blix said that was one of six letters with new information on weapons and called it "cooperation on substance."Zzzzz - the Blixter's clue phone is still off the hook.
