Rumors of War

U.N. report: North Korea sending Syria chemical weapons supplies - UPI.com
UPI reports: "North Korea has been shipping supplies that can be used to make chemical weapons to the Syrian government, a report by the United Nations indicates. North Korea sent acid-resistant tiles, valves and thermometers to Syria, a U.N. Security Council diplomat, citing the unreleased report, told CNN. The details come after multiple accusations that Syria has conducted chemical weapons attacks on civilians including those in the Damascus suburb of Eastern Ghouta, despite denials by Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's regime."

Comment: It's sad how the international prohibition against using chemical weapons has completely collapsed.  Ultimately history will lay the blame on Russia for not stopping it and indeed, allowing it to happen on their watch.
