Go figure
I'm trying to square this statement (here):

"Now that we have penetrated Baghdad's outer ring, the likelihood [of a chemical or biological attack] is negligible," said Captain Adam Mastrianni, the intelligence officer of the 101st Airborne Division's Aviation Brigade.

With this statement, by Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld yesterday (which you can find here):

And [Rumsfeld] said he believed the Iraqis may not have used chemical weapons thus far because ‘"maybe they are holding out because they think there may be a deal."
