Did Iran supply Gaddafi with chemical weapons shells?

According to the Washington Post, the Obama Administration is looking into the possibility that Iran’s government supplied the Gaddafi regime with artillery shells which were designed to carry chemical warheads;

The shells, which Libya filled with highly toxic mustard agent, were uncovered in recent weeks by revolutionary fighters at two sites in central Libya. Both are under heavy guard and round-the-clock surveillance by drones, U.S. and Libyan officials said.

The discovery of the shells has prompted a probe, led by U.S. intelligence, into how the Libyans obtained them; several sources said early suspicion had fallen on Iran. “We are pretty sure we know” the shells were custom-designed and produced in Iran for Libya, said a senior U.S. official, one of several who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the accusation.

Well, my only response is: So what? Not ‘so what’ that the weapons exist or that they were supplied by Iran, but ‘so what’ in the terms of a response. Plenty of evidence exists that we are at war with Iran – one more bit of proof isn’t going to change the fact that we’re not willing to do anything about it. Nor are any of our so-called allies, with the possible exception of Israel – but mostly because they face the greatest danger from the little goat-humping Nazi bastards.

Don’t get me wrong, I blame the Bush Administration as much as I blame the Obama crowd. This whole thing could have been nipped in the bud in 2004 and it would have shortened the time we were involved in Iraq and Afghanistan if only the Bush Administration had ignored the anti-war crowd in and out of Congress and done what they knew had to be accomplished.

As a result we’re looking at yet another rogue nation with nuclear weapons in the region who proliferates weapons of mass destruction to hasten the coming of the Mahdi.
