WASHINGTON, May 30: The Pentagon announced on Friday a “significant expansion” of efforts to find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, naming a new team of Americans, British and Australians to take up the so-far fruitless search.
The Defence Department appointed Army Major Gen Keith Dayton to head the Iraq Survey Group, which will try to find the chemical and biological weapons that the United States cited as justification for the Iraq war that toppled President Saddam Hussein. No such weapons have been found.—Reuters
