If this comes to pass, I hope the chemical weapons they secure say “Made in Iraq-2000”.
They will probably turn over the old ones that are stock-piled, unusable, and dangerous. It’ll be interesting if Assad “lets” the UN come and get them. Meanwhile, Assad will just get newer and better ones.
Secured by whom? Chemical weapons have source signatures. If Russia or the UN get them then we will never know. The US has to be part of the validation and verification process.
I was wondering if that was Putin’s plan. Show how Bush was right and make Obama and the dems look even more wrong, foolish & incompetent.
What remained of Saddam's stockpile (that was transferred to Syria) probably came from the United States to use against Iran when Saddam was once a useful tool.
