Obama Administration Lying Again: Syrian Officials Deny Chemical Weapons Use
Guns 2 Jihadists ^ | John

Posted on 04/26/2013 9:07:44 AM PDT by JohnPDuncan

CBC out of Canada reports unnamed Syrian officials speaking to the Associated Press denying the use of chemical weapons against foreign jihadist 'rebels' within the country that seemed to surface yesterday and that were repeated by Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel.

The report also quotes a Syrian lawmaker Sharif Shehadeh:

Shehadeh called the U.S. claims "lies" and likened them to false accusations that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction — a claim U.S. policymakers had used to justify the invasion of that country in 2003.

"What is being designed for Syria now is similar to what happened in Iraq when Colin Powell lied in the Security Council and said Iraq possesses weapons of mass destruction prior to the U.S. invasion and occupation of that country," he said.

Meanwhile Israeli officials are calling for the US to respond to the now debunked assertion that the Syrian regime used chemical weapons:

"I think the U.S., as the leader of the Western world, should lead the efforts with our partners in Europe and Israel and to take action with what we're seeing happening today in Syria," Israeli Deputy Defense Minister Danny Danon told CNN.

The question remains why Israel is so eager to see the collapse of the Assad regime. Do they believe they can control whatever Muslim Brotherhood puppet replaces him? If so this is extremely naive thinking from our Israeli friends as it would no doubt signal the start of an even longer and more protracted civil war. Also the evidence from Egypt suggests that when the Muslim Brotherhood takes control they immediately persecute Christians, re-write laws along fundamentalist religious grounds and cause political and social unrest.

I knew it was a lie from day one and didn’t want anything to do with it.

Regime change in Iraq was started in the late 90’s before Bush came to office as evidenced by the resolutions passed by Congress. The congress gave him the authorization including liberal heroes like Kerry and Clinton. He merely carried it out. He either knew it was a lie or was just naive. I dont care. I’m attacking the policy not the personalities. There were no WMDs

left wing??

I’m not left wing, i’m a conservative. A real limited government constitutional conservative.

If I was left-wing i’d support big government and other nonsense and I don’t.

Left-wingers like Kerry, Clinton and the New York Times supported the Iraq war.

are you a 9/11 truther too, did you think Bush crept into the towers and lay explosives or set this up?

Enjoy your time here as you won’t be here for much longer I bet, you’re either a Paul supporter or a flaming left wing kook which is sort of the same really.
I;m thinking that you’re not that old and was not around in 90 either.

I never supported anyone for president.

I supported Rand, Mike Lee and Ron Johnson in 2010 and Cruz in 2012.

[[i believe he’s a troll]]

I beleive you’re right- Even i nthe face of direcvt testimony (much hte way thje left in cognress were) they still deny there were WMD’s (and problably even doubt the holocaust even happened)- They ;pick and choose the evidence they want to hear- and ignroe everythign out and keep repeatign hteir absolutist stance over and over aGAIN despite manty givign direct evidence to refute their claims- Clasic trollish behavior

probably because you’re too young and just got out of school because your posts show you know nothing about what is going on.

Everybody supported the war except fringer neo-hippies like Ron Paul and Ralph Nader until they saw they could use the unpopularity against President Bush.

What evidence? Sources please.

The WMD claims came from people who had agenda and wanted to be put in power.

They’re totally discredited.

I can’t help it if you cant see that and what a mistake it was.

I’m not a troll. Just a Taft Republican who doesn’t like preemptive war. Taft didn’t even want to join NATO!

just about to write that.

Only Clinton , Kerry supported the war, HUH, I guess he must have been told this at his middle school or something because I could have sworn Cheney, Powell, Rice, Bush and most of the country supported it back then
