However, the White House said it was likely that President Bashar al-Assad’s regime, not the rebels, were behind any chemical weapons use.

The comments by Ms Del Ponte, a member of the U.N. panel probing alleged war crimes in Syria, contradict claims by Britain and the U.S. that intelligence reports showed Syrian soldiers had used chemical weapons.

To hear Biden tell it he’s in on everything. Obama doesn’t make a move without consulting brain damaged Joe.
It was really funny a little while ago to see to retired Army Lt. Colonels tell Eeeego-rielly that he’s wrong.

Well, I guess that B Hussein is now going to have to ask the Navy to attack the rebels instead.
Right?

Kiss it Bill O'Reilly!
O'Smiley was just on selling involvement in Syria on the grounds that it was definitely the Syrian government that used that gas.
He accused Col David Hunt of "not trusting his own government" and literally chastised the Col like he was a little kid when he dared to disagree with the jerk.

CNN aired a report on August 22nd where the reporter on the ground said people in the areas near there saw no evidence of a gas attack.

I don’t think “likely” is the word Hussein’s henchmen are using.

And the White House is every bit as sure of this as the Bush White House was that Saddam had chemical weapons stockpiles.
