"Faced with the Russian resistance, the Germans used toxic smoke to try to clear them out of the caverns below Sevastopol...They were clearly ideal conditions for using chemical weapons..."
The author also mentions Odessa and the Kerch peninsula.
Ahh so the story changes. "Toxic Smoke" isn't a chemical weapon. And all smoke is toxic.
I've provided my reference. Guess that went over your categorical head, eh?

Please don't show me yours. I'm sure it's not a sight I'd be interested in.
Smoke? You're equating, as is Bellamy, the use of smoke as analogous to chemical weapons. Neither of you apparently knows what they are.
I've read Bellamy and sure didn't take out of it, chemical warfare, like you did. As a note, all smoke is "toxic".
I guess the Indians used "chemical weapons", too, since one of their tactics was to light fires to cover their escape when attacked.
I guess tear gas and Mace also meet your definition of "chemical weapons".
1) Ineloquently spoken, but factually accurate.
2) Spicer clarified later in the news conference.
In accordance with The Geneva Protocol of 1925, Nazi Germany refrained from the tactical use of chemical and biological weapons in war, possibly due to the personal experiences of Adolf Hitler as a sergeant in the Kaiser's army where he was gassed by British troops in 1918.[33]
Not sure there is a difference between dropping them on people or shoving them in a gas chamber. But in TrumpWorld, whatever President Bannon tells Spicey to say is believed.
And every single other book, research paper, battle damage assessment says otherwise, including ones from what was the Soviet Union, which would have had zero reason to not publicize it and make major propaganda use of it had it really happened.
Think through things.
Again, you are mistaken.
"As the multi-volume Oxford University Press history of Germany’s conduct in World War II documents, the Nazis used chemical weapons against the Soviets on the Kerch peninsula"
"The Anne Frank Center is calling for White House press secretary Sean Spicer to be fired after his Tuesday comments claiming Adolf Hitler did not use chemical weapons during World War II.
In a statement posted on Facebook, the center's executive director blasted Spicer, saying the White House spokesman "lacks the integrity" to serve in his post.
"On Passover no less, Sean Spicer has engaged in Holocaust denial, the most offensive form of fake news imaginable, by denying Hitler gassed millions of Jews to death,"
