Syria Loads Chemical Weapons Into Bombs, Awaiting Assad's Orders

http://worldnews.nbcnews.com/_news/...ts-assads-order

Quote:
The Syrian military is prepared to use chemical weapons against its own people and is awaiting final orders from President Bashar Assad, U.S. officials told NBC News on Wednesday.

The military has loaded the precursor chemicals for sarin, a deadly nerve gas, into aerial bombs that could be dropped onto the Syrian people from dozens of fighter-bombers, the officials said.

As recently as Tuesday, officials had said there was as yet no evidence that the process of mixing the "precursor" chemicals had begun. But Wednesday, they said their worst fears had been confirmed: The nerve agents were locked and loaded inside the bombs.

Sarin is an extraordinarily lethal agent. Iraqi President Saddam Hussein's forces killed 5,000 Kurds with a single sarin attack on Halabja in 1988.

U.S. officials stressed that as of now, the sarin bombs hadn't been loaded onto planes and that Assad hadn't issued a final order to use them. But if he does, one of the officials said, "there's little the outside world can do to stop it."


This could potentially be the deadliest single attack on civilians since 9/11. According to Fox News, Syria has about 60 days to use these weapons before the chemicals mix into a non-toxic substance. But if they are used, the US and NATO have stated it would be "totally unacceptable" and that the "red line" for international intervention will have been crossed. I know ali.guitarkid is currently in Syria and has been away from the main fighting, I just hope if he sees this that myself and the rest of UG are all hopefully praying he'll be alright if this goes as south as south gets.

Alright Pit. Discuss.

I suppose the old saying still applies; there's nothing more dangerous than someone with nothing to lose. Really hope this doesn't go to hell, thoughts and prayers for the civilians in Syria.

Goddamn boys. Only way this could get worse is if Russia/Iran get involved for some ******ed reason.

I hope this doesn't turn into another Iraq, but it's kinda tough to argue against trying to take this guy down.

Yeah, i'm a pacifist but i'd say it'd probably worse to watch this happen without at least trying to do anything. I mean, we're one of the biggest world powers. I almost wanna say we have an obligation to fight this kind of tyranny.
