WASHINGTON — The Islamic State militant group may possess chemical weapons that it has already used to extend its self-proclaimed caliphate, according to photos taken by Kurdish activists and examined by Israeli researchers.
The group, making gains in Iraq and Syria, may have captured chemical agents in Iraq in June and used them in July to kill three Kurdish fighters in the strategically important region of Kobani in northwest Syria, suggests a report released Sunday by the Global Research in International Affairs Center, a branch of the Interdisciplinary Center in Herzliya, Israel.
If verified, Islamic State’s possession of unconventional weapons could make international efforts against it more urgent, and bolster claims that the world has not responded quickly or powerfully enough to the threat. The group, also known as ISIS, has intensified its effort to conquer Kobani over the past month, and battles there have attracted global attention as the region’s defenders — both Kurds and U.S.-backed rebels — have urged international help.

ISIS may use chemical weapons they captured in Iraq and Syria. How can that be the progs and the MSM have told us for the past 8+ years that there are no chemical weapons in those countries.
That’s what the MSM and progs would like us to believe.
We found a slew of old and aging chemical weapons buried in the desert, and in “abandoned buildings” of western and southern Iraq. Pre-war and post-war, there were long convoys headed west into Syria. With many of those convoys, chemical detectors were going off-scale. There were instances of tense stand-offs developing between US forces and the Russian personnel in a few of those convoys that were reported by embedded media.
Isn’t it ironic that ISIS was reported to NOT be al Qaeda YET…..
Lady al Qaeda, Aafia Siddiqui, was who they wanted to get in trade for then-hostage James Foley.
When ISIS couldn’t get Lady al Qaeda they beheaded Foley.
So, what was Lady al Qaeda caught with?
A written plan on how-to weaponize EBOLA.
Think ISIS could have chemical weapons and NOT use them?
If they have them, they will use them.
Life means nothing to ISIS.
Greg will be along any time to claim yet again that these chemical weapons are all old and too degraded to be effective. He hasn’t provided any proof of his claim, or told us how he “knows” this is the case, but that never stopped Greg before.
