It was still deadly. Probably made in the late 1980's for the Iran/Iraq war (1980-1988). Saddam decided to keep them around for souvenirs, I suppose. He also kept them unmarked. I wonder why? It wouldn't have anything to do with hiding them, now would it? Of course not, he had nothing to hide. He was a good guy, right?

Saddam had WMD, that is a fact. He used them against Iran and the Kurds, and he hid them from the UN.
