#1 American official with knowledge of the situation told Wired magazine.....
The mixing of WMD components over a vast country is much easier to see or detect than a mob at a US consulate or "CIA annex".

#3 Lots of Saddam's stuff (whatever is still usable) is probably added to the mixture, too.

#4 Exactly what else would the US / UN do to Assad then they are doing/going to do to him now?
His best case scenario is hanging after a long trial unless he runs to Russia. Do you really think this would make a difference to them?

That's what I'm saying. Obama's been sending weapons to the rebels and backing Assad into a corner. Assad must know what will happen to him and his fellow Alawites if the rebels win. Wouldn't want to be a little Alawite girl when that happens, as if Obama cares. So what's a little gas between mortal enemies? What difference does it make whether you get killed by gas or a bomb?

#6 It's not like Obama will do anything if Assad does it. Which is the whole point, he's just wagging his finger. With Egypt going into Chaos mode I suspect we'll have a WMD attack by Christmas in Syria.
We're about to see what would have happened in a second Carter term, at home and abroad. It's going to get messy.

Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
