WMD? What a STUPID caption.

Look at the caption under this picture on Yahoo!:



The United States is stepping up efforts to find evidence of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction by offering former mid-level scientists immunity from prosecution(AFP/File/Roberto Schmidt)

Now excuse me ... but does anyone see any weapons of mass destruction in this picture? If so, why are the grunts in the background in hazmat gear?

1. Sorry, but I don't see hazmat gear.

I see short sleeves, helmets, and bullet-proof bests, but not hazmat gear. Hazmat gear wouldn't leave ANY exposed skin, right? Am I missing something?

No, what makes the caption stoopid is that it talks about WMD's in front of a pile of non-WMD's.

2. That's not hazmat gear

And those aren't 'mid-level scientists' either!

3. Doh!

I meant to say NOT in hazmat gear!
