Iraqi Officials Stop Al-Qaeda Poison Gas Plot

Revelation 6:3-4 NCV When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come!" Then another horse came out, a red one. Its rider was given power to take away peace (prosperity, rest) from the earth and to make people kill each other (butcher, slaughter, to maim violently, in streets), and he was given a big sword (assassins sword, terrorist, loud, mighty, sore afraid).

The BBC is reporting that Iraqi officials have stopped a plot by al-Qaeda to carry out poison gas attacks in the Middle East, Europe and North America.

Remote-control toy planes would carry out the attacks.

Iraqi soldiers reportedly found the equipment necessary to produce both Sarin gas and mustard gas. The cell members were planning to use the gas in domestic attacks and had plans in place to smuggle the toxins around the world for use by other al-Qaeda terror cells.

The terrorist cell was discovered by both Iraqi troops and foreign intelligence services.

Mohamed al Askari, Iraq Defense Ministry spokesman, said that while the group had the materials and formulas, no active chemical weapons had been produced.

Iraqi officials also banned temporary license plats on cars an in attempt to decrease car bombings.
