Syria's foreign minister on Monday repeated his country's denials that a site bombed by Israel last year was a nascent nuclear reactor but said he wished his country had such a program to counter Israel's nuclear might.
U.N. nuclear inspectors visited the site in northern Syria last week to investigate U.S. allegations that Syria was hiding elements of a potential nuclear arms program.
The four-day visit was all Syria allowed.
I hope the inspectors were allowed to take GPS coordinates of where they stood, to match it with the known destroyed site.
Or I hope we had planes or satellites taking photos of the actual site at the time the inspectors were supposed to be there.
I don't want to sound overly suspicious, but I'd bet the Syrians had the time to build a duplicate (non-radioactive) building site nearby that the Syrians then demolished and scraped clean to look like the actual site.
Remember, the purpose of the inspection isn't to find out what Syria is doing in the area of nuclear weapons programs, but to allow UN inspectors the time to say only that they can't find any evidence of nuclear programs. Which will be spun byo our Left as meaning Syria has no nuclear programs.
I wonder if anyone found the shattered "baby milk factory" sign?
