http://www.euronews.com/2013/10/31/opcw-says-syrian-chemical-weapons-facilities-destroyed
Syria has destroyed all of its declared chemical weapons production and mixing facilities, according to the international chemical weapons watchdog.

The Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, the OPCW, says Syria met its main obligation by Friday\'s deadline as part of an ambitious disarmament programme.

The OPCW says its teams have inspected 21 out of 23 chemical weapons sites across the country. The other two are too dangerous to inspect, it reports, but the equipment had already been moved to other inspected sites.

Under a Russian-American brokered deal, Damascus agreed to destroy all its chemical weapons after Washington threatened to use force in response to the killing of hundreds of people in a sarin attack on the outskirts of Damascus in August. 

By mid-2014, Syria must also destroy its entire stockpile of chemical weapons.

"It looks like a premeditated suicide attack," a source with direct knowledge of the matter told Reuters, speaking on condition of anonymity to avoid repercussions for talking to the foreign media. Security has been stepped up all around the popular tourist attraction, already one of China's most sensitive and well-guarded locations. The vehicle appeared to have driven several hundred metres along the pedestrian pavement in front of the Forbidden City entrance before bursting into flames, knocking down people as it went. The three occupants in the car died, as well as two tourists while 38 others were injured. Now authorities have launched an appeal for information about two suspects from its restive far western Xinjiang region. Beijing has blamed Uighur separatists and religious extremists for a series of attacks over the years in Xinjiang, saying they want to establish an independent state called East Turkestan.

Under a Russian-American brokered deal, Damascus agreed to destroy all its chemical weapons after Washington threatened to use force in response to the killing of hundreds of people in a sarin attack on the outskirts of Damascus in August.

Breaking NEWS: Syria CIVIL WAR Obama supports REBELS, Al-Qaeda take down Assad REGIME (CIA funding)
Breaking NEWS: Syria CIVIL WAR Obama supports REBELS, Al-Qaeda take down Assad REGIME (CIA funding)
  • Order:
  • Duration: 5:34
  • Updated: 02 Aug 2012
Breaking NEWS: Syria CIVIL WAR Obama supports REBELS, Al-Qaeda take down Assad REGIME (CIA funding) US President Barack Obama has signed a secret order allowing the CIA and other American agencies to support rebels seeking to overthrow the Assad regime, a US government source told Reuters. Obama reportedly gave the order, known as an intelligence "finding", earlier this year. The presidential finding also provides for US collaboration with a secret command center operated by Turkey and its allies. The full extent of the assistance the "finding" allows the CIA to give the Syrian rebels is unclear. It is also unknown precisely when Obama signed the order. The Obama administration has been open about providing non-military support to the Syrian opposition. On Wednesday, the State Department said it had allotted a total of $25 million for "non-lethal" assistance to the Free Syrian Army. Some of that money may be used to buy communications devices such as encrypted radios, a US official said. The State Department also said the United States has set aside $64 million in humanitarian aid for the Syrian people. Last year, Obama also signed an initial "finding" authorizing US support for Libyan rebels seeking to overthrow Muammar Gaddafi. Also on Wednesday, the US Treasury confirmed it had granted authorization for Washington's representative of the Free Syrian Army to conduct financial transactions on behalf of the rebel group. Reports that the Syrian Support Group had been allowed to do so first appeared last week. The report of Obama's authorization for covert rebel support comes amidst continued fighting between Syrian government troops and rebels over control of Aleppo, the country's economic capital. Thousands of people have fled the city, while the government and rebels continue to release conflicting reports on the extent of their control over the city. Meanwhile, there have been reports that the Free Syrian Army managed to obtain nearly two dozen surface-to-air missiles. While a Free Syrian Army representative denied those reports, he also said the rebels were preparing another surprise for Assad's forces. Senior US officials have also been ratcheting up their rhetoric against Assad. On Monday, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta suggested that Assad "get the hell out" if he wants to protect himself and his family. A draft UN resolution calling for Assad to relinquish power in favor of a transitional government is also set to be voted on by the General Assembly on Friday. The document would deplore the Security Council for failing to act; a not-so-covert swipe at Russia's and China's continued panning of Security Council resolutions deemed to be one-sided. Brian Becker, director of the ANSWER anti-war coalition, believes the revelation of Obama's order doesn't represent any shift in terms of US strategy towards Syria. "All that does is reveal that the so-called diplomacy, the so-called looking for a negotiated settlement is a fraud -- that the diplomacy is, in fact, a form of perjury," he told RT. "The reality is that the US government -- the Obama administration with the Pentagon and the CIA -- has been neck-deep coordinating military operations to overthrow a sovereign government in Syria." He noted that there would have been no civil war going on in Syria if not for foreign intervention. "The decisive factor in the equation for civil war is US intervention," he said. "And would say, frankly, the Obama administration is guilty of war crimes against the Syrian people having cynically manipulated the situation. They have the blood of the Syrian people on their hands."

"It looks like a premeditated suicide attack," a source with direct knowledge of the matter told Reuters, speaking on condition of anonymity to avoid repercussions for talking to the foreign media. Security has been stepped up all around the popular tourist attraction, already one of China's most sensitive and well-guarded locations. The vehicle appeared to have driven several hundred metres along the pedestrian pavement in front of the Forbidden City entrance before bursting into flames, knocking down people as it went. The three occupants in the car died, as well as two tourists while 38 others were injured. Now authorities have launched an appeal for information about two suspects from its restive far western Xinjiang region. Beijing has blamed Uighur separatists and religious extremists for a series of attacks over the years in Xinjiang, saying they want to establish an independent state called East Turkestan.

Clapper:Obama was aware of NSA spying efforts
Clapper:Obama was aware of NSA spying efforts

Despite US President Barack Obama rejecting the idea that he was aware of Washington's spying on world leaders, the nation's top spymaster said Tuesday that the president had been informed about the surveillance activities. During a House Intelligence Committee hearing, National Intelligence Director James Clapper said that the National Security Agency and the CIA cannot tap into any leader's private communications without permission from the White House. The New York Times said Clapper did not specifically say whether Obama was told of the spying efforts, "but he appeared to challenge assertions in recent days that the White House had been in the dark about some of the agency's practices." Clapper's remark contradicts Obama's claim that he didn't know about the spying efforts. The testimony came amid mounting questions about how the NSA collects information overseas, with congressional lawmakers calling for a review of surveillance programs. Last week, revelations based on documents provided by former NSA contractor Edward J. Snowden showed that the US had monitored phone calls of 35 world leaders including that of German Chancellor Angela Merkel. German newspaper Bild am Sonntag reported that NSA Director Gen. Keith Alexander had briefed President Obama in 2010 that Merkel's phone was being tapped. "Obama did not halt the operation but rather let it continue," the paper said, citing a high-ranking NSA official. President Obama has promised a "complete review" of overseas spying operations and reportedly apologized to Merkel and the presidents of France and Brazil, who were also subject to NSA surveillance.
