As explained in US Defense Dept. document #2001032-0000041, ver 1.0:
A chemical agent monitor (CAM) is a portable, hand-held device capable of detecting blister or nerve agent contamination on persons, equipment, and elements of the surrounding environment…. Because of the CAM’s sensitivity, many other vapors cause positive detections....Interferents include the substance found in Wipe Number 1 of the M258A1 Decontamination Kit, Decontamination Solution #2 (DS2), insect repellent, brake fluid, burning kerosene, breath mints, burning grass, and ammonia. Other substances that can cause a false-positive reading include perfumes and after-shaves, food flavorings, and cleaning compounds.[92]
It wasn't lies about WMD's, they were mistaking Saddam's after shave for nerve gas...
