"Israeli" Ambassador to US: Passing Syria’s Chemical Weapons to Hizbullah A Red Line

Local Editor

"Israeli" Ambassador to the United States ambassador, Michael Oren, warned Sunday that any possible transfer from the Syrian regime of chemical weapons to Hizbullah would be a game-changer, and a "red line" for the Zionist entity.

"Were those weapons to pass into the wrong hands -- Hizbullah's hands for example -- that would be a game-changer for us," Oren told Fox News Sunday.
He further said: "We're watching the situation very carefully. We have been watching it many months now and it's not new to us."

"Syria has a varied, deep chemical weapons program. It's geographically dispersed as well and were those weapons to pass into the wrong hands, into Hizbullah's hands, for example, that would be a game changer for us," the "Israeli" ambassador claimed.
However, Oren said he couldn't confirm the reports of Syria using chemical weapons.

""Israel" has a very clear red line, about those chemical weapons, passing into the wrong hands. Can you imagine, if Hizbullah, with its 70,000 rockets, got its hands on chemical weapons, that could kill thousands of people," he stressed.
In parallel, he mentioned that "Tel Aviv supports US red line on the matter," and noted that ""Israeli" Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has come out publicly and supported President Obama's red lines regarding the use of chemical weapons in Syria."
"The "Jihad" presence is big and getting bigger. And the longer the conflict goes on there, the bigger it will get," Oren stated.

According to Oren, "Hizbullah provided 70,000 rockets to Hizbullah in Lebanon, tens of thousands of rockets to terrorists everywhere. He had tried to create a nuclear facility, secretly. Hafez Assad probably would have never done something like that."

"So, he has to go," the "Israeli" ambassador said, and noted that "he is a loose cannon throughout the region and a danger to the entire region."

"If he goes now, we would view that as a positive development. He's an ally of Iran. He's an ally of Hizbullah. We understand that if "Jihadists" were to come in, it wouldn't be good. But, it perhaps wouldn't be as bad as the current situation," Oran concluded.
