It's Ok When Democrats Say It

Exclusive: State Department quietly warning region on Syrian WMDs
Posted By Josh Rogin

The State Department has begun coordinating with Syria's neighbors to prepare for the handling of President Bashar al-Assad's extensive weapons of mass destruction if and when his regime collapses, The Cable has learned.

This week, the State Department sent a diplomatic demarche to Syria's neighbors Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, and Saudi Arabia, warning them about the possibility of Syria's WMDs crossing their borders and offering U.S. government help in dealing with the problem, three Obama administration officials confirmed to The Cable. For concerned parties both inside and outside the U.S. government, the demarche signifies that the United States is increasingly developing plans to deal with the dangers of a post-Assad Syria -- while simultaneously highlighting the lack of planning for how to directly bring about Assad's downfall.

Syria is believed to have a substantial chemical weapons program, which includes mustard gas and sophisticated nerve agents, such as sarin gas, as well as biological weapons. Syria has also refused IAEA requests to make available facilities that were part of its nuclear weapons program and may still be in operation.

Your partisan stupidity has reached new heights with this one.

Congrats.
 
When Democrats do what? Offer their assistance to the neighbors of a country on the verge of collapse, to help them police a possible influx in the trafficking of extremely hazardous weapons across their borders?

Yep, that Obama. What a monster.
 
They did such a bang-up job of keeping Libya's weapons out of the hands of Hamas...




We chronicled that result of creating anarchy and then putting no boots on the ground.
 
Believed, by whom?

Syria has admitted having six or seven chemical warfare plants. They're one of only seven nations who are not signatory to the Chemical Weapons Ban so the plants are entirely legal, and they claim they need chemical weapons as a safeguard against Israel's nuclear program.

Syria has hinted in the past that they will sign the Chemical Weapons Ban just as soon as Israel signs the nuclear non-proliferation treaty.
 
Is your computer equipped with search engines...those thingies that help you gather information from the internet? Try them sometime.

Because if it's on teh Internetz, it MUST be true, right Miles Ben Zonah? :rolleyes:
 
It didn't matter to you and to yours that Iraq had them too, when it became time to call Bush a liar about WMDs.

Big difference here, REMFboy, Iraq said they did NOT have WMDs and they didn't.

Syria readily admits to having chemical weapons to use as a retaliatory measure against Israel should Israel invade.
