Israel Joins US on Syria Chemical Weapons Issue

Alleged Chemical Weapon Sites
Tel Aviv : Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has joined US President Barack Obama in the psychological war on Damascus, claiming that the Syrian government might use chemical weapons. 

Israeli PM Netanyahu said on Tuesday that the Tel Aviv regime would monitor the ‘potential use of chemical weapons’ in Syria.


President Obama said in reference to the Syrian government, “The use of chemical weapons is and would be totally unacceptable and if you make the tragic mistake of using these weapons there will be consequences and you will be held accountable.” 

Damascus strongly dismissed the US allegations. 

Israeli PM Natanyahu
On December 3, the US magazine Atlantic reported that the Israeli regime was seeking “permission” by the Jordanian government to bomb the “chemical weapons sites” inside Syria. 

The magazine stated that Netanyahu had sent intermediaries of the Israeli spy agency, Mossad, to Amman twice over the past two months with plans to bomb the Syrian sites.

The plan, however, has so far been rejected by Jordan. 

The Atlantic report added that Israeli and US spy drones have been flying over the Jordan-Syria border recently.
