WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION. IRAQ MAY HAVE RETAINED A SMALL BUT

SIGNIFICANT CHEMICAL AND BIOLOGICAL WEAPONS CAPABILITY. DESPITE

HEAVY DAMAGE TO ITS STORAGE AND PRODUCTION INFRASTRUCTURE, BAGHDAD

RETAINS SOME          PERCENT OF ITS PREVIOUS CAPACITY TO PRODUCE CW AGENT

ANNUALLY, AS WELL AS SOME BW AGENT. IRAQ'S NUCLEAR PROGRAM HAS

ALSO BEEN DEALT VERY SERIOUS DAMAGE, SETTING BACK ITS PROSPECTS

FOR DEVELOPING A WEAPON AT LEAST BY THE LATE 1990S.
