"The man who served as the no. 2 official in Saddam Hussein’s air
force says Iraq moved weapons of mass destruction into Syria before the war by
loading the weapons into civilian aircraft in which the passenger seats were
removed."
"Mr. Sada, 65, told the
Sun that the pilots of the two airliners that transported the weapons of mass
destruction to Syria from Iraq approached him in the middle of 2004, after
Saddam was captured by American troops. The pilots told
Mr. Sada that two Iraqi Airways Boeings were converted to cargo planes by
removing the seats, Mr. Sada said. Then Special Republican Guard brigades
loaded materials onto the planes, he said, including ‘yellow barrels with skull
and crossbones on each barrel.’ The pilots said there was also a ground convoy
of trucks."
"The flights – 56 in total, Mr. Sada
said – attracted little notice because they were thought to be civilian flights
providing relief from Iraq to Syria, which had suffered a flood after a dam
collapse in June of 2002."
