Report: U.S suspects Iraqi WMD in Lebanon's Bekaa Valley

SPECIAL TO WORLD TRIBUNE.COM
Monday, August 25, 2003

U.S. intelligence suspects Iraq's weapons of mass destruction have finally been located.

Unfortunately, getting to them will be nearly impossible for the United States and its allies, because the containers with the strategic materials are not in Iraq.

Instead they are located in Lebanon's heavily-fortified Bekaa Valley, swarming with Iranian and Syrian forces, and Hizbullah and ex-Iraqi agents, Geostrategy-Direct.com will report in tomorrow's new weekly edition.

U.S. intelligence first identified a stream of tractor-trailer trucks moving from Iraq to Syria to Lebaon in January 2003. The significance of this sighting did not register on the CIA at the time.

U.S. intelligence sources believe the area contains extended-range Scud-based missiles and parts for chemical and biological warheads.

Mutually-lucrative Iraqi-Syrian arms transactions are nothing new. Firas Tlas, son of Syrian Defense Minister Mustafa Tlas, has been the key to Syria's rogue alliance with Iraq. He and Assad made hundreds of millions of dollars selling weapons, oil and drugs to and from Iraq, according to the May 13, 2003 edition of Geostrategy-Direct.com.

The CIA now believes a multi-million dollar deal between Iraq and Syria provided for the hiding and safekeeping of Saddam's strategic weapons.

Not surprisingly, U.S. inquiries in Beirut and Syria are being met with little substantive response, U.S. officials said.

I suspect it's a lie as well.

However the real reason for this "report" is a tidy little pretext for invading Syria.

Next stop on the endless war train....Syria....all aboard!

My initial thought was that as well, however the U$ has been blustering on the issue of Syria since just before the "end" of the Iraq conflict. They really want to take out Syria. They'll attack them for being a conduit.

The word on the street is that the next U$ target will be Lebanon. At least that's what I've heard.

I also watched a BBC special, where they gave a good case for Lebanon being the next US target. Supposedly it would be a joint US-Israel operation.

The U.S. may well attack Lebanon and Syria, and maybe find an excuse to break Iran as well. On the way home, the soldiers may invade Saudi Arabia, too, just for kicks. Nobody is safe in the Middle East...

It may not be a good way to go about it, but I&#39;m not going to shed any tears over the Middle Eastern regimes. <_<

I wouldn&#39;t go in Saudi if I were them, that&#39;s going to blow any time now anyway, best to keep out of there.

it&#39;s convenient that US Intel didn&#39;t register the trailer tractors, because of course then they wouldn&#39;t be allowed to go to war, if allt he WMD&#39;s had moved&#33;

As long as people allow the tracks to be built towards supposed WMD&#39;s, this train will run on oil, on a path paved by dead bodies.
