Assad had to go! WMDs!

You seem a bit confused as to constitutes a WMD, most likely because you never served in the military.

Nuclear weapons are WMDs.

Mustard gas, the subject of your article, is not a WMD, at least outside the halls of Fox News. Mustard gas has always been a crude tactical weapon of limited effectiveness. It is used on the battlefield as an area-denial weapon, requires huge tanks or massive amounts of artillery shells to deploy, and depends on winds for effectiveness.

Mustard gas can have long term debilitating effects on someone, but it is very inefficient at killing people outright.

I hope this clears up your colossal ignorance somewhat.
