Israel Can See If Assad Is Moving Syria's Chemical Weapons
(Jerusalem Post) Yaakov Lappin - Israel has "good capabilities" when it comes to tracking attempts by Syria to transfer its chemical weapons to others, such as terrorist organizations, Yuval Steinitz, the international relations, intelligence and strategic affairs minister, said on Sunday. Steinitz added that "even if Assad gives up chemical weapons he used to execute 1,400 people, this doesn't excuse him from punishment." He said it made little sense to pardon a murderer who shot dead victims just because "he turned over his gun." He also noted that Iranian nuclear weapons are "77 times more dangerous than Syrian chemical weapons."
