Wayne Madsen Report
The National Security Agency was fully aware that Syria did not mix, remove, and use on the battlefield chemical weapons that Syrian President Bashar al Assad now stands accused by the United Nations Human Rights Commission of using against Syrian rebels trying to oust him from power.
WMR has received exclusive information from reliable Middle East sources that Syrian intelligence was aware that the NSA and the hybrid agency that it operates with the CIA, the Special Collection Service (SCS) has, for some years, maintained a sophisticated network of technically-advanced sensors at every chemical weaopns site in Syria.
The sensors were developed by NSA’s Tailored Access Operations (TAO) unit and placed at the Syrian Anytime any chemical munitions were moved or pre-cursor chemicals were mixed to craft a weapon, the intelligence would be immediately known to intelligence analysts in the “Syria shop” of NSA’s Signals Intelligence Division.
The CIA used repairmen to place the sensors near the chemical weapons sites. They were often disguised as traffic light or street lamp maintenance personnel or builders. Syrian counter-intelligence was aware of the operation but, on the orders of Assad, permitted it to continue so the West would always know that Syria would not commit to use the chemical weapons in a first strike.
WMR has also been informed that similar sensors have been installed around many of Iran’s nuclear facilities.
The use of chemical weapons in Syria was carried out by Saudi-financed Salafist extremist forces who were hoping to lure the United States and other NATO countries into an attack on Assad. The “false flag” chemical weapons attacks by Syrian guerrillas, using weapons obtained from Al Qaeda in Iraq, was the brainchild of Saudi Prince Bandar, the head of Saudi intelligence.
President Obama opted for the diplomatic solution, which saw the U.S. and Russia agreeing that Assad would turn over all his chemical weapons to the West for destruction. That destruction is now being carried out aboard a U.S. Navy ship.
Sensors similar to those installed near Iranian nuclear facilities were also in place at the suspected Syrian nuclear facility at Deir el-Zour, which was destroyed in an Israeli air attack, carried out with the assistance of the United States and Turkey, in 2007. The intelligence from the NSA/SCS sensors showed that the Syrian site had no nuclear weapons capability or even the potential for developing such weapons. This intelligence was known to the Bush administration, which, nevertheless, supported the Israeli operation code named Operation ORCHARD.
Assad never gave any authority for Syria to pursue a nuclear weapons program. He apparently did not trust the technical capabilities of his scientists and military personnel and feared that any nuclear reactor development and possession of highly-enriched uranium or plutonium might result in a catastrophic accident that would imperil all of Syria. Therefore, he nixed any nuclear weapons development program by his military.
