Kerry: Samples from Syria tested positive for SarinBy Carrie Dann, Political Reporter, NBC News
Secretary of State John Kerry said Sunday that samples collected by first responders after the reported August 21 chemical weapons attack in Syria have tested positive for the nerve agent Sarin.
Secretary of State John Kerry tells David Gregory on Meet the Press that evidence suggests that Syrian leader Bashar Assad used the nerve agent sarin in his chemical weapons attack.

"In the last 24 hours, we have learned through samples that were provided to the United States that have now been tested from first responders in east Damascus and hair samples and blood samples have tested positive for signatures of Sarin," Kerry said on NBC's Meet The Press. "So this case is building and this case will build."
Sarin is a man-made chemical warfare agent considered the most toxic and fast-acting of its kind. The odorless, colorless nerve agent interferes with an enzyme called acetylcholinesterase, which controls nerve signals to the muscles.
Kerry's statement comes the day after President Barack Obama announced that he will seek congressional authorization for a military strike in Syria. The U.S. has said it has "high confidence" in intelligence assessments that show the chemical weapons attack that killed over 1400 people - including hundreds of children - was launched by the Syrian regime.
In a forceful speech on Friday, Kerry called Syrian President Bashar Assad a "thug and a murderer" who turned chemical weapons on innocent people in east Damascus.
"This is the indiscriminate, inconceivable horror of chemical weapons," he said. "This is what Assad did to his own people."

So?

The major players in the Syrian saga, the CIA, The Mossad and the Mabahith, have access to WMD's.

"...that evidence suggests that Syrian leader..."

What is that supposed to mean, really?

I suggest that ya'll stop drone bombing people.

No doubt this will be all that is needed for many of the dumbasses in Congress to vote for mass murder.

Hopefully not. We need to keep the pressure on after buying some time

US Military killed more Americans from the chemical "AGENT ORANGE" then they can rightly or wrongly pin on Assad.

Love to see any Representantive bring that up.

Anybody can make and deploy Sarin. It is one of the easiest chemical weapons to make and deploy.

Clinton Gassed His Own People too!


WACO Seige Waco Texas April 19, 1993

06:04 Armored vehicle with ram and delivery device to pump tear gas into building with pressurized air rips into front wall just left of front door leaving a hole 8 feet (2.4 m) high and 10 feet (3.0 m) wide. Agents claimed the holes not only allowed insertion of the gas, but also provided a means of escape. Agent sees shots from inside the compound directed at CEVs

06:31 The entire building is gassed

06:47 FBI fires plastic, nonincendiary tear gas rounds through windows

07:30 CEV1 is redeployed, breaching the building and inserting tear gas. Branch Davidians fire shots at CEV1.

07:48 On FBI tapes of agents recorded during the siege, FBI agent requests permission to fire military-style tear gas shells to break through underground concrete bunker. Gets permission, fires two shells

11:43 Another gas insertion takes place, with the armored vehicle moving well into the building on the right rear side to reach the concrete interior room where the FBI believe Branch Davidians are trying to avoid the gas.

Yes peace piper,

Agents within our Gov certainly did that.

Hypocrisy on this issue needs to be explained & exposed.

we have learned through samples that were provided to the United State

By who? (I thought the UN was doing the investigation)

Are they admitting to US assets in Syria? What were they there for?

Was the Sarin delivered by the Girl from Michigan? (That disappeared from the news quickly)

That would never cut it for even common environmental samples collected in the USA (I'm an environmental engineer).

How do we know that the samples were collected properly by people who did not have an "axe to grind"?

It does not appear that proper "chain of custody" procedures were followed.

These "samples" do not meet even the minimal standards required for every day environmental sampling in the USA. Why should we trust them as an excuse to lead the USA into (yet another) costly, stupid, unnecessary war?
