If the public can be so preoccupied with the dangers of a nuclear war that has not happened. surely it should be no less concerned about the hazards of weapons being used right now. The relative silence may be due to disbelief of what in the past has seemed meager evidence. or perhaps to a lurking suspicion that the Reagan administration is vigorously pursuing such charges against Moscow in order to help justify its own development of chemical weapons and its military buildup generally. Yet all the evidence now accumulatedblood samples. gas masks. testimony from a Soviet defector. a Laotian pilot. and Afghan refugees--indicates that something is definitely going on. Soviet denials to the contrary. The Canadians. among others. have also unearthed evidence of the use of banned chemicals and toxins.
