Why isn't it being reported everywhere? Because there's a world-wide media conspiracy of course Bimmercat.
But seriously I don't know. But its pretty flimsy evidence of Iraq possessing WMDs before the illegal invasion. Who knows how long that stuff has been in Iraq? Or far that matter whether its genuine. Havn't you heard of the CIA, dirty tricks etc.

Are these WMDs?
Re: Are these WMDs?
Have you ever heard of Fort Detrick in Maryland? America has been making chemical and bio weapons there since the Nazis got free flights out of war torn Germany in 1945.
America has bio weapons, we probably have similar, in fact any country with a half decent university and chemical industry can make tons of the stuff.

Re: Are these WMDs?
Seriously Bimmercat, do you really believe the world's media are supressing that Sarin story? I've done several searches and can't find it anywhere else. What's the reliability of that single source?
You have said many times that you hold no particular brief for Bush or the Iraqi incursion. Are you so blindly patriotic that you still cling on to a pathetic belief in your country's ultimate rightness.
As for the Oil for Food business, I believe the jury is still out on that one. But I'm prepared to criticise the UN if it does appear that there has been wrong doing.

Re: Are these WMDs?........PS
And my PS to you was "Why isn't the US government headlining it then?"
Sorry, of course it is but the world's media are not publishing it.

Unfortunately your link doesn't work for me. I get a message 'To view this presentation, you need to install the Flash plug-in', although I did install Flash.
But anyway, Saddam distributed his poison gas liberally among his people, so I am not surprised that some of it is still left.
But if I remember well, Bush's claim was that Saddam was piling up weapons of mass destruction with a view to threaten the USA. Forty vials of Sarin is not enough to pose a serious threat to the USA.
And note that I am NOT telling you Saddam is a pleasant fellow or Sarin is a medicine. I am only telling you Saddam did not have enough of the stuff to be really dangerous.
