Adios, Ritter

Friday, I took my best shot at Scott Ritter's dismissive take on the Sarin Shell. To summarize: while I"m no veteran, I was enough of a reporter to find a few things that I'd have loved to get more details about.


Donald Sensing, a retired artilleryman, lights him up with style.

I don't think the speculation Ritter refers to is irresponsible. But I agree that a lot more about the shell and its legacy would be helpful. The jury is still out. I also note that the US government has been pretty mum about it. I don't really fault them for it - the tests Ritter outlines have surely been done - but I would like to know. (The question is begged, though, whether I have a need to know, and I must admit I don't, and neither does Ritter.)
Just read it.
