Panetta: We’ve Lost Track of Syrian Chemical Weapons
FP ^

Posted on 09/28/2012 12:19:33 PM PDT by Perdogg

The U.S. has lost track of some of Syria’s chemical weapons, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said Friday, and does not know if any potentially lethal chemicals have fallen into the hands of Syrian rebels or Iranian forces inside the country.

“There has been intelligence that there have been some moves that have taken place. Where exactly that’s taken place, we don’t know.” Panetta said, in a Pentagon press briefing.

After watching the alphabet soup networks this A.M. not a word was spoken of this situation. Am not surprised. The alphabet soup networks cannot upset the public. They (the public) might realize they (the public) are in danger and vote out zer0 and his crowd. The alphabet soup networks work for the enemy.

If the truth was told by these alphabet soup networks the public would be much better informed.

Of Course, I have been saying this since, what, 2002?

Whatever you may feel about President Bush, he took a real undeserved BEATING over this issue!

So....Obama’s “red line” a little while ago was that we would intervene if we saw movement of chemical weapons.

Now O can claim we actually don’t see movement because we can’t see them at all.

Another justification for doing nothing.
This is what O does whenever there is a crisis....nothing.

And afterwards, when doing nothing is revealed to be the worst possible course of in-action, they will have find some lame excuse as to why it was impossible to do anything.

This will be announced after an investigation produces results from an investigation that never actually happened at all.

It’s a great thing that we have insider jihadists sympathizers in the US military working to shift the war on terror onto Americans. This way Syria’s “moderate” jihadist rebels can secure WMD and bring them across the open border./s/

They wouldn’t admit this unless they thought the weapons would be used soon in an unexpected place.

Or obama is playing chicken with Netanyahu over Iran.

“But you is forgetting the free phones, foo! “

I don’t think that is a trivial matter unless you think a BILLION dollars is chump change And I can focus on more than one problem a time.

“Ark. congressman wants to disconnect $1 billion free cell phone program”

These bumbling buttheads in the O admin thought they were smarter than the Islamists. Well, they weren’t. They are going to get us killed.


O , et al, play a short game with instant reward. Radicals have been playing for thousands of years, and enjoy going up against a no offense team.

Barry thought, his drone strategy would win. He didn’t count on them using the old fashion frontal assault anymore.

Convienient excuse if they are used ....

Can here it now. We’ll we can’t be blamed for preventing their using something we didn’t know was there.

Also, we never believed they really had them. After all “ Bush lied” about these to start the war that has them made at us, and caused them to use them now.

This is the MAIN reason the consulate was hit that night and the black market for these MANPADs lead back to China and the Seal and Stevens were onto it.


Interesting comment. Saw another post that talked about them being on the trail
of weapons, etc.

Also, may explain what is actually in the missing documents etc from the safe house.

That part of the story has not been covered adequately by anyone.

Oh-Kaaay, Tonto-—my first plan is to put the “X” on “Romney” in less than 40 days. Alternate parallel plan is to send Romney all my spare bucks for the same 40 days. After that Plan “B” is to make a run on DC with a truckload of pitchforks to make sure the Kenyans don’t stay one minute longer in the White Hut than the law allows. It’s a 6000 mile run for me but I’ll do it if I can get some help. I’ve been saying for some time we need a million pitchfork packin’ person vigil to encourage Obamuzzie to pack up his krap and vacate on time if not soonest.
