Assad says facility Israel bombed not nuclear

Postby *jr » Sun Apr 27, 2008 12:43 pm

Source: Reuters

DUBAI, April 27 (Reuters) - The Syrian site Israel bombed in September was not part of a nuclear weapons programme, but was a military facility under construction, President Bashar al-Assad said in remarks published on Sunday.

Last week, Washington released intelligence alleging Syria had built a nuclear reactor with North Korean help before an Israeli air strike destroyed the facility on Sept. 6.

"Is it logical? A nuclear site did not have protection with surface to air defences? A nuclear site within the footprint of satellites in the middle of Syria in an open area in the desert?" Assad asked Qatar's al-Watan newspaper in an interview conducted before the U.S. accusations were made.

Israel spent a lot money destroying a "worthless, incomplete military structure of unknown purpose" and now Syria knows they were screwed out of billions by the Russians selling them worthless Air Defence System.

Syria has developed and is training its own Hezbollah.

An Islamist movement can defeat Israel because it fights in unconventional (guerrilla, asymmetrical, etc) way.

I am starting to believe that there was infact a nuclear facility by the way he is reacting..
why not show the whole world and make a big hype with reporters at the site if they have nothing to hide??

I very much doubt that the site was nuclear or even related to chemical weapons due to the extreme lack of security.

there are no decontamination teams , and villagers and thier goats are free to roam around.

Isreal overreacted, and its well known in the region,

and Isreal does not care that it has overeacted becuase it knows it can get away with murder.
