Rep. Lee Terry: My 'Gut Feeling' Says Syria's WMDs Came From Iraq

WASHINGTON -- Rep. Lee Terry (R-Neb.) said on Thursday that he is against military intervention in Syria, even though his "gut feeling" is that the Syrian government now possesses chemical weapons that came from fallen Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussain.

Terry, who has served in the House since 1999, supported the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003. In an interview on Thursday with Omaha radio host Tom Becka, Terry said Syria was a completely different situation.

"The theory then and the evidence was that Iraq was an enemy of the United States and had direct plans in either support of al Qaeda and/or with other weapons that we found out weren’t there -- which I still think they were moved to Syria," said Terry. "And it wouldn’t surprise me if some of the chemical weapons that have been used by Syria actually came from Iraq."

    "What difference does it make"?Hillary had the right answer for the wrong question.

    And just who in Syria owns how many of these weapons? Surely by now, most of them have been bought and sold 5 times over to different factions. To assume the Syrian Gov't. kept them in a secure manner all these years is about the most hilarious notion I can think of!
