The Times has a compelling account of the use of chemical weapons in Syria. Strangely, the story doesn't start on page one. Also strangely, it doesn't mention the words "President Obama" or "red line" or note that the Obama administration has touted the disarmament of Syria as a foreign policy victory. If the Iranian nuclear disarmament deal is anything like the Syria disarmament deal, in which Syria is using chemical weapons following the conclusion of the deal, no wonder Congress and Prime Minister Netanyahu are concerned.
The Times story notes that "In contrast to stronger toxins like nerve agents and mustard gas, chlorine is lethal only in highly concentrated doses and where medical treatment is not immediately available, making it more an instrument of terror than of mass slaughter." That's not much consolation to those killed by the chlorine.
