Iraq's WMD Secreted in Syria, Sada Says
in response to reader comment: Common sense question

Submitted by Ric, Oct 5, 2007 11:28

Since when has anything Saddam has done involved "common sense?"

To me - moving the WMD's was a better strategy. Look at how the world has turned against us because they were not found. I am sure Russia and Syria told Saddam how much public opinion would change if there were no WMD's found.

Who remembers the terrorist plot foiled in Aman, Jordan where terrorists planned to release 20 tons of Sarin gas??? WHERE DID THEY GET THAT MUCH CHEMICAL WEAPONS from??? ...Syria - where Saddam shipped it. Interesting also that Israel recently bombed a North Korean convoy of nuke stuff and chemicals....

I have heard Gen Sadas speak and he is very credible
