Following the August 20, 1998, missile attack on a pharmaceutical plant in Sudan that was linked to Iraq and bin Laden, “Iraq denied any involvement. The political editor of Radio Iraq read a statement on the air, saying that ‘the Clinton government has fabricated yet another lie to the effect that Iraq had helped Sudan produce this chemical weapon. The U.S. government knows very well that neither Sudan nor Iraq can or actually seeks to produce such a weapon.’ ”
