Puppet Masters
A[n unnamed] U.S. official confirmed Friday that the Syrian regime has been moving elements of its chemical weapons stockpile in recent days, an action that has U.S. officials both concerned and perplexed.
"We don't know why" they have begun moving chemical weapons from storage, the source said, refusing to speculate whether President Bashar Assad's regime could be preparing to use the weapons on the civilian uprising.
Asked whether there is concern that the weapons could fall into the hands of terrorists, the source said the United States still believes the chemical weapons are "secure" and under the control of the Assad regime.
Separately, Pentagon press secretary George Little said if the Assad regime were to use chemical weapons on civilians it would cross a "serious red line."
"We would, of course, caution them strongly against any intention to use those weapons," Little said.
While details of Syria's stockpile of chemical weapons remains a mystery, the United States believes the regime has significant quantities of sarin nerve agent, mustard gas and cyanide.
Opposition activists said Friday that more than 200 Syrians were massacred in a village in the Hama region on Thursday in what could prove to be the worst single incident of violence in 16 months of conflict.
Activists said the incident took place on the eve of the latest U.N. Security Council negotiations on a new resolution on Syria. The United States and its allies said it showed the need for tough action, but Russia ruled out accepting the latest draft.
Comment: Who confirmed? What was the confirmation based on? Why isn't the data that caused this confirmation put into the article? Is Syria about to be chemically attacked and then blamed for it? The above article only creates more questions. Syria may well be moving its chemical weapons caused by the fear of a false flag attack that will make it look as if it has poisoned its own people.

Are you saying that one drop of US chemicals.. cause Syria has no drones. Isn't your statement entirely pathological and war inducing? Are you even able to look beyond violence or am I somehow reading you wrong?
Nothing to loose.
Assad knows that the only thing keeping him alive is his power. Since his fate is almost certainly to be similar to Saddam's or Muammar Gaddafi's the moment he looses that power, he can be expected to insure his own survival at any cost. He simply has nothing to loose but his own life.
This is unfortunate, because the cost may well be millions of lives in the Middle East. And he is doomed either way.
And it's even more frightening because all the US/NATO military indusdrial juggernaut needs is a reason to start shooting.

Your thinking doesn't hold water.. You know Syria is under attack, right? All these stories about Assad are based on lies, therefore he isn't the criminal he is made out to be, and therefore you're looking at it from the wrong perspective. Syria might be doomed, but only if we - as a people - accept the lies that are told by the Consortium.
