Assad built 10-15 mobile chemical labs a year ago – Syrian defector

Washington Post columnist David Ignatius quotes US intelligence sources on a revelation by a Syrian defector that in late 2011, the Syrian army started building special trucks able to transport and mix chemical weapons.

Inside the Mercedes or Volvos, which looked outwardly like refrigerator trucks, mobile labs were installed to combine and activate “binary” chemical weapons agents.

The defector said that, six weeks ago, the Syrian opposition secretly handed Lebanese officials a description of the trucks so that they could watch the border to make sure they did not cross over and reached Hizballah.

A ‘defector’ manufactured by the 0bama regime to enlist American support for troop involvement? I’ve seen this movie before.

I don’t know what is worse: Assad sneaking these things across the border to Hezbollah before his regime falls, or Al Qaeda getting their hands on them after his regime falls.

Indeed.

Why do I suspect that the only country with mobile chemical weapons labs is this one...

Good. Hope he uses them. Just hope Israel isn’t affected. As for all the other Muslim Rats, let them slaughter each other.

Yes, our intelligence sources, CIA, NSA and the rest are now just more propaganda arms for Obama. There is nothing this Administration says that can be believed without independent corroboration and it is awfully hard to find any independent sources.

These are the ‘non-existant’ chemical weapons WMDs that Bush ‘lied’ about prior to the war in Iraq.

The ‘other Hussein’ just schlepped them across the border to his buddy in Syria, is all.

You are correct ... the line about them being built only a year ago is so that they don’t look like liars when it comes out that we had to go in there and destroy WMDs that supposedly didn’t exist.

Both of you are right on with your comments. The lefties and their mediots will never admit that these WMDs were the phantom WMDs that left Iraq before we started the removal of Hussein and his thugs.

Whom would you first trust: Assad or Obama...?

Disturbingly difficult choice, eh...?

Chilling.

The Rats sure can’t have the country understanding...at last...that Sadaam’s WMDs passed into Syria in the weeks before the war,just as Colon Bowel showed in his presentation to the UN.

Debka. That should be enough for anyone on this site to reserve judgement until it’s confirmed by reputable sites. Why is this even allowed as a source on here, let alone allowed into sidebar? It’s so much speculative fiction it can hardly be counted as a news source.
