フセイン政権に化学兵器の原料を供給していた容疑でオランダ人Frans van Anraatが6日にアムステルダムで逮捕された。アメリカと日本で作られたマスタードガスと神経ガスを含む化学兵器を36回船便で運んだ容疑がかけられている。88年にクルド人に対してフセインはこれらの化学兵器い5000人を殺害している(とあるがイランの仕業と言う話もあったはず。クルド人がイラン兵をイラク国内に引き入れていたのも事実)。

Dutchman held for 'Iraq genocide'
*Prosecutors in the Netherlands say they will charge a 62-year-old Dutchman suspected of assisting ex-Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein in genocide.
A spokesman for the chief prosecutor's office said the suspect had supplied Saddam Hussein with thousands of tons of base materials for chemical weapons.
The chemicals were allegedly used in the 1988 Iraqi bombing of Halabja.
It is alleged that suspect Frans van Anraat was aware of the final purpose for the base materials he supplied.
"The man is suspected of delivering thousands of tons of raw materials for chemical weapons to the former regime in Baghdad between 1984 and 1988," prosecutors said in a statement.
The notorious chemical attack on Kurds in Halabja killed an estimated 5,000 civilians.
*'Major supplier'
Prosecutors said the Dutchman had been a suspect since 1989, when he was arrested in Milan, Italy, at the request of the US government. But he was later released and fled to Iraq, where he remained until 2003.
After the US-led invasion of Iraq in March 2003, he returned to the Netherlands via Syria, the Associated Press reported.
The United Nations suspects the man was a major chemical supplier to the former Iraqi regime, having made 36 separate shipments, including mustard gas and nerve gas originating from the United States and Japan.
The chemicals where shipped via the Belgian port of Antwerp, through Aqaba in Jordan to Iraq, the prosecution statement said.
The man was arrested in Amsterdam on Monday and will be brought before a court in the town of Arnhem later this week.
