They can hide them with Saddam's WMDs.

Great. Israel can fly over Syria while destroying it, over Iraq while we give permission on their way to crushing Iran.

Works for me.

[JustAnotherOkie]

What the hell is going on with these people. They want out of modern society fine. Ironclad sanctions, blockades, and embargos now. Anything going in and out should be destroyed.

[EQAndyBuzz]

Simple solution.

Destroy Irans ability to produce oil. Well only a little. Then tell them they have 24 hours or the rest of their fields will be turned into glass.

Emd of problem.

these mofo's are asking for a butt whoopin!

[null and void]

Storing WMD's is becoming a Syrian habit...

Many of us have thought for a long time that Syria and Russia have Saddam's stock pile. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure it out.

[lilylangtree]

Should look closely to see if Saddam and Syria had the same agreement.

[TexasRepublic]

Solution? Destroy both countries.

[redgolum]

Interesting strategy, but one that could work. Syria is pretty much an ally of Russia, so we will try to side step anything that has to do with them.

Iran knows this, and figures that if can get its nukes to Syria, the US will be lambasted if/when we take back Iran. That and the Iranian nukes have a much better shot of hitting Israel from Damascus than Tehran.

Of course if a nuke DOES hit Israel, regional nuclear war will start rather quickly. And we think we have high gas prices now!

[ScreamingFist]

Teheran would seek to upgrade Syrian ballistic missiles and chemical weapons systems. Under the accord, Iran would also be prepared to operate "advanced weapon systems in Syria during a military confrontation." Jane's said.

This is a hell of a lot more than a "storage pact"....this is a war alliance.

Syria agreed to store Iranian materials and weapons should Teheran come under United Nations sanctions.

Sounds great. We know the UN loves to impose sanction after sanction, rather than commit to action. Call for them right now. Moving the weapons and materials into Syria makes it a little easier for the Israelis to take them out while a follow up strike on the production facilities in Iran can be arranged.

I saw this on Drudge too. Why not they hid them for Iraq! I still believe that is where the WMD's are. Even though President Bush agrees they were never there. Which I think was wrong of Bush to do.

[cope85]

just let the U.N keep talking

[r9etb]

Here's an interesting thought: how can a country become a regional superpower, complete with WMD, without the difficulty and expense of their own R&D programs? Simple: let Iran and Iraq do the hard work, and then just offer to "store" their results in your own bunkers.

[claudiustg]

It's a twofer.
