Biden Regime Calls Syria’s WMDs ‘Top Tier Priority,’ Israel Does Something About Them

By Daniel Greenfield | Dec 10, 2024

Israel is thinking tactically and the Biden administration is on autopilot.

Obama drew a ‘red line’ in the sand on Assad’s use of chemical weapons and then bowed out and told Secretary of State John Kerry to outsource the job of dealing with it to Vladimir Putin.

That worked out about as well as expected. So well that in the aftermath of Jihadis taking over Syria… the WMDs are now a “top-tier priority”.

The senior Biden administration official said Sunday the White House has also “been concentrated” over the last week on the issue of any remaining chemical weapons in Syria, calling it a “top-tier priority.” The senior official did not envision a scenario in which the administration would put US forces on the ground to deal with the chemical weapons.

Top-tier priority means nothing gets done.

The WMDs are also a top-tier priority for Israel which means something is being done.

Earlier Tuesday, the IDF struck a chemical weapons factory belonging to the regime of former Syrian president Bashar Assad to prevent the rebels from seizing it, Arab media first reported on Sunday, and The Jerusalem Post later independently confirmed.

The Biden administration is carrying out airstrikes on some ISIS targets in Syria which is a valid thing to do, but also strikes me as trying to close the barn door after the barn had been ripped away by a tornado and sent all the way to Topeka. Syria is overrun with Jihadis and apart from ISIS being more cruel and vicious, not that much different in substance.

Israel is thinking tactically and the Biden administration is following a zombie program from Obama’s last years in office. Israel is thinking about how this development changes things and no one in the White House seems to be doing anything but repeating old Arab Spring talking points.

That needs to change. Fast.
