Sudan Orders Syrian WMD Out Of Country
2004-04-27
via Instapundit
Sudan has ordered the removal of Syrian missiles and weapons of mass destruction out of the African country. Arab diplomatic and Sudanese government sources said the regime of Sudanese President Omar Bashir has ordered that Syria remove its Scud C and Scud D medium-range ballistic missiles as well as components for chemical weapons stored in warehouses in Khartoum. The sources said the Sudanese demand was issued after the Defense Ministry and Interior Ministry confirmed a report published earlier this month that Syria has been secretly flying Scud-class missiles and WMD components to Khartoum. The sources said the Bashir regime has been alarmed over the prospect that the United States would discover the Syrian arsenal and conclude that Damascus and Khartoum were cooperating in the area of missiles and WMD. They said this would have delayed or dashed U.S. plans to lift sanctions from Sudan.
As it should...
A U.S. official confirmed the Syrian missile shipments to Sudan, saying they were meant for use against rebels in the south. But the official said the U.S. intelligence community has not determined that Syria sent WMD systems to Khartoum.
Now where would Syria have got theses WMD’s? Hmmmmm - any f*&king idea Mr. Magoo Hans?

#5  Actually, there is nothing that precludes the Syrians from having Scuds. Either these missiles belong to Sadaam or the story is kah-kah.

#4  Mahmud, then we must hide our WMD, in an allied country that is in negotiations with the Great Satan?

But, Ahmed, won't the allied country reveal the presence of the weapons as a bargaining chip during the negotiations?

Humm, Mahmud, I shall contemplate your objection, but for now continue to operate the pallet jack.

#1  Another vindication of the pre-emptive Bush Doctrine, which has successfully turned WMD's from a perceived asset into a perceived liability.
