The head of the opposition Free Syria Army, General Salim Idriss, told CNNs Christiane Amanpour on Thursday that he has intelligence that the Assad regime is moving its chemical weapons out of the country.
Today we have information that the regime began to move chemical materials and chemical weapons to Lebanon and to Iraq, General Idriss told Amanpour from inside Syria.
Its a huge claim that would fundamentally shift everything U.S. intelligence officials have in the past said they believe about the situation in Syria, CNN Pentagon Correspondent Barbara Starr reports.

CNN is grabbing onto assertions by the Assad opposition without asking for proof. Makes nice copy supporting the regime and gives FR’s a chance to vent.

"I cant talk about weapons, he told Amanpour. We are getting now a lot of support from our American friends, but I cant talk in detail about all kinds of the support. Wow...just wow. Al-Qaeda attacks our nation, kills thousands, levels the WTC, and 12 years later, they're our "friends". May you all burn in hell, Obammunist, sKerry, Hilldebeast, et al.

Who is going to believe the ‘Free Syrian Army’? At least wipe the Christian blood off their hands first, then, maybe. And how could they both have our old ally S. Hussein’s chemicals and also have spent so much money buying the sarin from the British they are alleged to have used (when they were already winning)?

There have also been
calls from neighboring, Hizballah-controlled Lebanon for help from Christians worldwide to support them in their effort. Maronites are the predominant Christian population in Lebanon.
Harb pledges to be forceful president [Maronite "ready to fight" Israel, "protect Hezbollah"] Lebanese Lobby (Lebanon) ^ | 11SEP07 | Francis Matthew

"
Beirut: Boutros Harb, long-serving Maronite Lebanese Member of Parliament, is standing for president and reaching out to the Shiite Hezbollah, across the political divide in the country.
[...]
"I have proposed that the Lebanese army and government must be in control of declaring war, and that we should find a way to incorporate Hezbollah's forces into the army. But this has to be on the condition that the Lebanese government and army accept the full duty of being ready to fight and protect Hezbollah if Israel attacks," he said, adding that it was also important that Lebanon had to liberate the occupied territory of the Sheba'a Farms from Israel."

"The ship is sinking and all of us, the Lebanese, should stick together and work together to stop the Israeli aggression," Amin Gemayel, a Maronite Christian who served as president from 1982 to 1988, told the Arabic-language TV station Al-Jazeera . . . Michel Aoun, a one-time commander in Lebanon's 15-year civil war who now serves in parliament, said . . . "I don't think that Israel has the capability to destroy Hezbollah militarily because Hezbollah is not a group of armed men," Aoun said. "Hezbollah is a major part of the Lebanese social fabric."

...
In writing my book on suicide attackers, I had researchers scour Lebanese sources to collect martyr videos, pictures and testimonials and the biographies of the Hezbollah bombers. Of the 41, we identified the names, birth places and other personal data for 38. Shockingly, only eight were Islamic fundamentalists. Twenty-seven were from leftist political groups like the Lebanese Communist Party and the Arab Socialist Union. Three were Christians, including a female high-school teacher with a college degree. All were born in Lebanon.
...
Robert A. Pape, a professor of political science at the University of Chicago, is the author of Dying to Win: The Strategic Logic of Suicide Terrorism.
Iran is also communist, by the way (everything state-owned and much of it doled out to the families of clerics). I posted hundreds of articles on Iran and the need to take care of business there a long time ago, but anti-American, pecuniary, international socialist interests here threw trash in threads at nearly every article. Iran continues to build nuclear weapons.
