The UN is now concerned that Syria has chemical weapons. This is another disturbing development for peace in the region. If true, this is another considerable threat to peace in the region. Syria has been involved in so many wars. It is, of course, a major threat to Israel which is obliged to defend its citizens; so it is no wonder that Israel is determined to maintain a nuclear deterrent.
Syria is also becoming a destabilised state so what would happen if chemical weapons were to fall into the hands of terrorists?
It is time for the UN Security council to insist that all nations in the Middle East divest themselves of all types of weapons of mass destruction to prevent another calamity from happening.
A place where sceptics can exchange their views
