Last month’s alleged chemical attack near Damascus has refocused attention on Syria’s 30-year-old biological weapons research and raised concerns about whether the government there could activate an effort to make a weapon.Syria’s bioweapons program, which U.S. officials believe has been largely dormant since the 1980s, is likely to possess the key ingredients for a weapon, including a collection of lethal bacteria and viruses as well as the modern equipment needed to covert them into deadly powders and aerosols, according to U.S. and Middle Eastern officials and weapons experts.
another thing not heard so much in the congressional battle over who will take the lead who has the right and what will happen though left out IMO they mean to us, not Syria's neighbors re they dismissed as collateral damage, do we go in and rebuild and pour millions into their economy while America and Americans whither on the vine of more war?
Top intelligence officials in two Middle East countries said they have examined the potential for bioweapons use by Syria, perhaps as retaliation for Western military strikes on Damascus. Although dwarfed by the country’s larger and better-known chemical weapons program, Syria’s bioweapons capability could offer the Assad regime a way to retaliate because the weapons are designed to spread easily and leave few clues about their origins, the officials said.
has the right wing goaded Pres. with America has to do something it's our self assigned obligation, just to have a potentially damning reaction to his reaction and their call for inclusion was a ploy thinking he might not do it since he is not obligated to, but now that he's taken their suggestion they are part of the blame for whatever happens,
that would be a very good reason why they seem to be pulling back within hours of his saying he would ask their approval,and leaving him standing alone, if that is true they again are sinking the country and you by trying to get him
