The store of chemical and unconventional weponry that was in Iraq, and figured in the decision to go into Iraq, was sent to - Syria.
Now Syria is dusting off and pulling out this store of weaponry given - GIVEN - them by Saddam Hussein, and the West is faced with the same quandry as they were in 2001 in Iraq. Only, where shall Bashar Assad go to hide HIS accumulation of these unconventional weapons?
So he trots them out and says, back off or I shall kill off my OWN people, and anyone who wants to side with them.
In a sane rational world, the disagreement would never have escalated to this level, and now, there is no way to save “honor” without going through with dispersal of these weapons.
Apocalypse NOW. Last man standing slowly crumples to the ground, mortally wounded.
Affirmative, additionally the yellow cake uranium supply route to Hussein through Libya was confirmed.
However, it was denied, lied and demonized by every American Marxist DemoRat during the Bush Presidency, and after three years of silence the Rats trumpet the existence of WMD's in ONLY Assad's hands in Syria.
The Russian media has not figured out this little switcho changeo.
