(Jerusalem Post) Uri Dan - The head of Israeli military intelligence, Maj.-Gen. Aharon Ze'evi Farkash, still believes that on the eve of the Iraq war, Saddam Hussein had "a residual capability of weapons of mass destruction" that was enough to kill thousands of people. According to intelligence information possessed by Israel, Saddam's arsenal still contained several bombs, shells, or warheads for Scud missiles - weapons of mass destruction, and Saddam had prepared Russian-made Tu-16 and Su-24 long-range aircraft in order to deliver these bombs. Mystery continues to surround the contents of Iraqi shipments to Syria in September, October, and November 2002 - shipments that were discussed in detail by Saddam and Syrian President Bashar Assad. "We continue to insist that our information about Saddam's residual capability of WMD was accurate," said a senior Israeli military intelligence officer. "If Saddam Hussein had remained in power, he would have exploited the first opportunity that arose in order to re-equip his arsenal of WMD, support acts of terror, and threaten the peace of the entire region," he added. The mystery of Syria's involvement in this episode will one day be solved.2004-07-29 00:00:00Full Article
