Bombing Iraq Threatens US/UK Troops and Allies

Bush League threatens its own troops, allies, etc.
According to the Bush/Blair Oil Coalition, biological, chemical and nuclear "Weapons Of Mass Destruction" are hidden in Iraq. Some of this stuff is FROM the U.S. and Britain...so, officials know what it is and how bad it is. They SAY it's real bad.
If they don't know where it is, then how can they drop any bombs with assurance that these devastating materials won't be blasted into the atmosphere to be sent wherever the four winds blow? Where it will go is...onto U.S. and U.K. troops (grossly under-protected from such things in the previous Gulf Invasion), onto innocent Iraqis (including "friendlies" who are expected to depose Saddam Hussein), and onto neighboring countries.
What kind of "hazardous duty" pay will US Oil and construction crews, and occupation forces, get after the takeover? Will troops (and spouses and kids) be tested before and after so that the U.S. Veterans Administration will take care of Duty-Caused health problems BEFORE 30+ years go by (as they did re/ Nam vets and Agent Orange)?
IF, on the other hand, Bush and Blair know there is no risk of inadvertantly, but inevitably, bombing such hazardous weapons...then the "hidden weapons" excuse to invade is gone.
Either way...bombing is an insane tactic.
