#1 Little to worry about here. The Russians will not allow US weapons experts to examine Syrian Chem/Bio stocks. If they do, it will only be a notional, media event. Risking the identification of former Iraqi munitions is not something either the Russians or The Champ Regime want to take place.

Imagine the outrage and embarrassment if the evil Bushitler invasion of Iraq suddenly became justified due to the discovery of chemical weapons manufactured by Saddam.

#2 Just send in Scott Ritter - he denies finding anything in Iraq (except underage girls).

#3 I hear they're already shipping some Syrian stuff to Iraq for safekeeping.

#4 Just remember these basic characteristics when making policy:

The governments of Syria, Iraq, and Iran are composed of pathological liars, thieves, and psychos.

If the world is concerned about chem weapons in Syria, then they can do something about it. We have carried their water long enough. Let them do a bit of lifting themselves.
