But with the 'gung-ho' approach the US is known for it could get nasty very quickly. One thing that the US hate is any use of chemical warfare. Makes me think it was maybe done on purpose to cause some sort of retaliation. I mean who the heck would use such a method nowadays as it is bound to cause reprisals? Then again the whole area must be full of lunatics, well they appear to be anyways.
