Classified documents obtained by the Al Arabiya network and released Thursday have revealed that the Syrian regime moved a chemical weapons stockpile with the help of Iran and knowledge of Russia.

Furthermore, additional documents also reveal that Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad has also sought cross border cooperation with the State of Israel.

The confidential files were acquired by Al Arabiya with the assistance of members of the Syrian opposition who refused to elaborate on how they got hold of the documents.

Al Arabiya said it verified and authenticated hundreds of these documents and that it has decided to disclose the ones with substantial news value and political relevance.

One batch of leaked files obtained by the network contained documents related to the Syrian regime’s secret relations to Israel.

Officially, the two countries are at war, but on April 3, 2011, less than one month after the beginning of the popular uprising in Syria, the Chief of the Syrian Air Force Intelligence, Sakr Mennoun, sent a written order to Col. Suheil Hassan to head to the Syrian-Israeli borders and ensure the safety of the frontiers.

Mannoun requested from Hassan to secure the borders “in cooperation with the state of Israel.”

"The confidential files were acquired by Al Arabiya with the assistance of members of the Syrian opposition who refused to elaborate on how they got hold of the documents."

From Israel, of course.

"Al Arabiya said it verified and authenticated hundreds of these documents and that it has decided to disclose the ones with substantial news value and political relevance."

They might have even forged them, but any investigation will be drowned out in angry chimp noises, and anyone who questions them will also be called a "Zionist collaborator."

But that's a side point. Assad is toast, and I think Israel is the one who decided to toast him, probably with the truth. Better the disorganized, half crazed MB amateurs you don't know, than the devil you do with years of acumen and connections, and allies in Iran and Lebanon.

Syria has had major defections from within its armed forces and within its government, so my guess it would have come from the defectors.

[Eleutheria5]

That would make sense, except that they would not reveal the source. Defectors are regularly named as sources. So my guess is their source is Mossad acting on behalf of Bibi.

We’re really witnessing resurrection of Ottoman II. Iran and Syria (Bahrain) are Sha’ia. Who is telling us about the Syrian endorsed rapes and murders? Whose giving us this information? Turkey is on board with NATO and they promised them something big.

Thanks Eleutheria5.

...the Syrian regime moved a chemical weapons stockpile with the help of Iran and knowledge of Russia... additional documents also reveal that Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad has also sought cross border cooperation with the State of Israel.

Attention 2ndDivisionVet: this sounds like something in which you would be inerested.

Old man Hafez Assad made deals with everyone, playing them off against one another.

So who should be surprised its out in the open: not Israel, surely!

The latest cover up on GhaziGate suggest we were in Libya to retrieve weapons that were stolen from US. I pray to God these chemical weapons weren’t OUR WEAPONS that may have been stolen by Muslim Brotherhood and sold to Syria. This would explain why the world is on fire.
