That is the difference.^^^

Yeah Robbie. In 1941 - 1942 my father was a warrant officer in the US Army Chemical Warfare Division. He was stationed in Alaska doing weapons research, he was a 3rd year chemical engineering student in NYC before he enlisted in 1940.

If a government wants to kill select criminals (few) with leathal gas or injections we allow it.

We do not allow governments to gas large numbers of citizens for the purpose of exterminating them.

The truth of Yellow Rain is that it is a chemical agent used by the Russians in their war in Afghanistan.

Yellow Rain is disbursed by aerial blast and sticks to everything. Yellow Rain is a sort of blistering agent on human skin. I supervised the manufacture of its "anti-agent" in an Israeli chemical plant in 1982. The anti-agent is a compound similar to the chemical formulation of an epoxy. It is made anaerobically (in a Nitrogen atmosphere) then placed in hermetically sealed (no air) fast puncture cans. The cans are put in front line tanks. After a Yellow Rain Attack the cans are punctured with a hand spray head then the tank exits are sprayed to protect the soldiers exiting in protective chemical warfare suits. It is a decontamination procedure and the tanks it went on were in the northern frontier -- facing Syria and Lebanon.

Not a military secret but it was a major expense and not done with no reason ...

Those videos posted to Youtube were real Sarin attacks. What stockpiles the Assad regime controls of SARIN or possibly VX are unknown. Assad is a lose cannon with his back to a wall.

If everything goes wrong this could turn out very badly and not just for the parties fighting in Syria. The Russians may be the first to suffer if the Chechen "volunteers" on the rebel side capture a chemical weapons dump in Syria (may very well be their overall objective) then Putin will be eating his words while Russia wails. Same said for al Qaeda with respect to the Americans, the Saudis, and the Egyptians don't forget the NATO members that were active in the Afghan war -- al Qaeda has a death wish grudge to settle there too.

A series of Sarin attacks would suit the bill of the Islamic Extremist Liberation armies everywhere.

Pleasant dreams ...
