So the whole thing was a "whoops" by the rebels themselves?
Sort of a "I wonder what this button does?", Or, "I wonder what's in that tank? Let's open the valve and sniff to find out".
In either event, it looks like the rebels were the ones planning to use the nerve gas and screwed up.
And Zero is ready to start a "wag the dog" war over a "whoops" to cover for his scandals?

Why are we sourcing from the Tehran Times? Iran has an extreme interest is protecting the Assad regime since he is their conduit to sending aid to the Hezbollah. Hardly an objective source.

They admit it to your face.
Yet you doubt what they say?
No wonder we're losing this battle.
We're not even fighting the correct enemies, the Saudis, and the Muslim Brotherhood.

I’m not sure you correctly grasp the situation in Syria. The Christians aren’t a player in this civil war. But yes... Both the Muslim government and the Muslim rebels are bad guys.
Why would Prince Bandar send chemical weapons to Syria when Syria has plenty of their own for decades? I’m thinkin’ the Iranians aren’t the ones to believe on -anything- about war making in the Mid East.

"The man described the weapons as having a tube-like structure while others were like a huge gas bottle."
Ohhh! A mysterious tube-like structure. Huge gas bottles. Coupled with the source, the story is simply not believable. Seems to be told by people who have no idea what chemical weapons even look like. I tend to think If insurgents were being supplied with this stuff, it would be in the form of artillery shells, mortar rounds, or perhaps rockets.

Yeah but see the problem is we have a President whose first order of business since day one has been to protect, defend and spread the cult of Islam.
Here’s some trivia for you:
Q. On Obamas very first day in office as POTUS on January 20th 2009, what was the very first thing he did?
A. Try to close down Guantanamo Bay detention camp that houses multiple Islamic terrorists.
OK? That was the very first thing he did above EVERYTHING ELSE. And guess what? That kind of fanatical dedication by him to our Islamic enemies has not changed one iota.
Here’s another question for you:
Q. On May 3rd 2011 Obama announced Osama Bin Laden was killed by United States special forces military unit. How much proof of Osama Bin Ladens death was presented to the general public much less the world?
A. Zero and two years later it’s still zero.
What was the comment made by members of Seal Team 6? “The body didn’t look like Osama Bin-Laden”
Exactly why it was immediately disposed of. And what is the result? No more hunt for Bin-Laden.

"IMO our intelligence forces are told to find out what Obama wants them to find out."
Well, considering that from the first day the ILLEGAL ALIEN IN CHIEF got into office, he and his FASCISTS minions have been filling the government agencies with Muslim Extremists,
so either way,
do you really trust Obama's sources?

Well, it knocked Benghazi off the news, didn't it.

Please read it again.
Claims Saudis sent chemical weapons to the rebels fighting the Syrian government, NOT to the Syrian government.

"The Christians arent a player in this civil war ..."
Really?
They're only the innocent victims that both side, and the ILLEGAL ALIEN IN CHIEF, either want out of there, or want dead.
Wake up!
This has always been about Muslims driving out the Christians!

They say it came from Saudi Prince Bandahar. I read another saying they came from Obama. Obama says it came from Assad. Everyone has an agenda eveyone over there lies and we dont have a clue baesed on what eople say. They will just say anything.

I'm not questioning the concept that the Administration doesn't know WTF is going on in Syria and is siding with our enemy (AQ in Syria). I'm not questioning that the Administration is lying. What I am wondering is when we, here at FR, started using sources like the Tehran Times? Why not post an article from TASS or Pravda next?
Even this second post of yours quotes Syrian state TV as a source.
I guess this guy wasn't available for comment

Sure, Christians are being driven out but that is not what the civil war is about.
