U.S. warns Syria not to use chemical weapons ( Today's Warning )
CNN ^ | updated 4:20 PM EST, Mon December 3, 2012 | By the CNN Wire Staff

(CNN) -- The United States warned Syria again on Monday not to use chemical weapons amid intelligence reports indicating President Bashar al-Assad's regime could be preparing to take that step as it escalates its fight against rebel forces.

"I'm not going to telegraph in any specifics what we would do in the event of credible evidence that the Assad regime has resorted to using chemical weapons against their own people," Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Monday. "But suffice it to say, we are certainly planning to take action if that eventuality were to occur."

U.S. officials are concerned that with fighting closing in on Damascus, forcing the temporary closure of the airport there, the regime may be feeling desperate and toying with the idea that chemical weapons could finally crush the persistent rebellion.

I don't think it will be Assad using chemical weapons. The U.S. arms shipments coordinated out of Benghazi included Libyan chemical weapons. These weapons went to Turkey and the Russians observed New Syrian Army personnel being trained in their mounting on launch platforms and use as part of a “false flag” operation.

The false flag op would have NSA fighters based in Turkey bring the launchers into Syria where they would be launched on Syrian targets fighting against Assad. Then the NSA says: “See Assad has used chemical weapons on us. Help.” Turkey would request NATO involvement (that brings in the EU and U.S.)

Problem for the U.S.: Russia and China and Iran know what we have been doing to orchestrate this. The attack on Benghazi was a shot across Obama’s and Clinton's bow by Putin to lay off.

Hillary and Barry (doing Saudi-influenced foreign policy) are playing with World War III.

The big lie being told is that the U.S. is merely providing minimal support, including humanitarian aid to the Syrians so they can defend themselves from Assad. That’s the big lie that covers up what they are really doing in the region.

Putin called Syria his red line in the sand, and stated that WW III will start in Syria, not Iran.

Iraq War number two coming to your door steps soon. Stay tuned for up to date reports at....
Putie and his gang are most likely become more then just irritated at this point.
But hells bells. What could possibly go wrong with such distinguished folks such as the kenyan goon and his mob at the White Hut, Susan Rice, the broad that is known to toss ash trays at her hubby in control.
The situation is well under control. Don't worry folks.
Besides now that the goon won a second term he has more flexibility. We have his word on it. :)

I just listened to John Batchelor on the Kudlow Report....CNBC....chilling!!

Quote.....We are at War...the Iraq WMD's and Systems were moved to Syria in 2003 under Russian supervision....

Russia is still involved...

Obama' s warning was not to Assad but to Russia and China....

Any invasion will come from the Turkish with assistance from NATO forces...

I don't know whether he puts these statements on a blog,...or on his radio program out of NYC...

He does seem to have good intelligence contacts...although many here will not buy that.

Hitler had some great nerve gas—but he never used them—even when he was in the bunker and about to be killed or captured. Rumors say he ordered V-2’s armed with Gas but they didn’t have it ready to drop on Patton’s Army—True? Who knows?

So, if Hitler, Mad as he was, didn’t use gas—the Syrian Tyrant will not as well.
