Israeli official: Syria using chemical weapons
The Syrian government is using chemical weapons against rebel forces, the head of the Israel Defense Forces' intelligence research departments said Tuesday.
"In all likelihood they used sarin gas," Brig. Gen. Itai Brun said Tuesday in a speech at a conference in Tel Aviv. This comes as a civil war between the government and rebels rages across Syria - which borders Israel.
Analysts believe the Syrian government may have one of the largest stockpiles of chemical weapons in the world. The supply is believed to include sarin, mustard and VX gases, which are banned under international law. Syria has denied the allegation.
FULL STORY
I think raven was just using an oxymoron.
You forget the essential services @DOD
Firefighting, police, air traffic control and then education, welfare programs for Americans on and on, while we dole out tax dollars on the sly to an 'ally'.
To the misfortune of Israelis their current pm Netanyahu is considered 'master of deception' and a 'liar' in the international community.
How do you know an israelie is lying, they are speaking.
Also "master of disaster" lol
@chrissy
I'm still dismayed that while all sorts of news are being splashed on this blog the terrible loss of American lives in W.Texas & the devastation takes a back stage.
Why not, when you can have another story involving the word "guns".
I know @ saywhat. Guess all the things going on in france we dont need to know whats going on here in our own country. Makes ya wonder if maybe some of what hamsta says might be true.
@jeff frank ohio.
U tell em! U da man!
The West Texas story is being covered.
As it is not a breaking story any longer, it's not going to appear on "This Just In".
@banasy,good evening ..Texas plant is just a search and take pics ,record findings , items because they had at one point over 60 buildings to inspect and behind it all a playground and nobody knows if any kids were there when it exploded,real shame...I bet the insurance company on this deal must be having fits not wanting to pay on some personal claims from families of deceased workers and that can get nasty if they end up in court with suits because of how it happened...My prayers are still with the people,city in W.Texas,God bless..And on another subject send Assad some serin gas via B-2 bomber he'll enjoy the results guaranteed!!Now that's chemical warfare...
