Coalition troops have discovered weapons of mass distruction in Iraq. Well, they haven't so much discovered WMD, as they have been the victim of them. Fox (search) News reports: "A roadside bomb containing sarin nerve agent recently exploded near a U.S. military convoy, the U.S. military said Monday. Bush administration officials told Fox News that mustard gas was also recently discovered."

Of course we already knew Iraq had chemical weapons. They used them on the Kurds between 1984 and 1989, which resulted in the death of over 25,000 people. Although this week's attack was not very effective and resulted in only a few injuries and no deaths, the nerve agent is nonetheless a weapon of mass destruction. Interesting enough, when a blister agent was found in Iraq months ago, there wasn't much of a hullabaloo.

Then again, take a look at how some major media outlets are reporting this latest find.

Fox News reports that chemical agents have been found in Iraq, while CNN choses to get a jump on the hurricane season, which starts in June (although the most dangerous hurricanes come in late summer or fall). If you manage to read CNN's article about the new Iraqi governing council and make it down to the 12th paragraph, you'll hear mention that coalition forces are "believed" to have found Sarin nerve agent.

Who do you trust for news?
