Syria says wants nuclear energy under Arab umbrella

Posted by Matt in June 4th, 2008

Syria is not seeking nuclear weapons but wants to have access to atomic energy for peaceful purposes through a collective Arab project, President Bashar al-Assad said in remarks published on Tuesday.

U.S. intelligence officials in April said they believed Syria had built the suspected reactor with the assistance of North Korea, which later also helped in cleaning up the site after the Israeli strike.

Syria has denied having any undeclared nuclear programme. It has one old research reactor subject to monitoring by International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspectors.

U.S.: N. Korea Gave Syria Nuclear Help
CHAN: Yesterday in Washington, D.C. the Central Intelligence Agency or CIA, briefed Congress on Syria's nuclear ambitions. They say one nuclear power plant in Syria was not for peaceful purposes. Here's more on this story. STORY: A stunning allegation by the White House—North Korea helped Syria build a covert nuclear reactor facility within its borders. The disclosure comes seven months after Israel bombed the suspected nuclear site in Syria's eastern desert...but Washington had never confirmed those suspicions until now. During an intelligence briefing with lawmakers, U.S. officials played a narrated video showing what they said were photos of the nuclear reactor. Before and after aerials of the facility showed structures officials said were key parts of a nuclear reactor capable...

CIA video showing suspected Syrian nuclear reactor
http://mprofaca.cro.net The Global Intelligence News Portal The United States releases photographs of what it claims is a Syrian nuclear reactor built with North Korean help. The reactor was destroyed by Israel in an air strike on 6 Sept 2007. The attack was initially shrouded in secrecy out of what the Bush administration said was fear that public discussion could prompt Syria, which has long supported militant Palestinian groups, to retaliate. "We are convinced, based on a variety of information, that North Korea assisted Syria's covert nuclear activities," White House spokeswoman Dana Perino said in a statement. "We have good reason to believe that reactor, which was damaged beyond repair on Sept. 6 of last year, was not intended for peaceful purposes," she said. In detailed...

The assessments released to reporters followed similar briefings to members of Congress today about photographs taken inside the secret Syrian...

US demands report on Syria nuclear program
http://www.instablogs.com/ US demands report on Syria nuclear program What I want to Say here is that Bush administration is trying to fabricate these evidence to accuse nations - which are not its allies - in having a nuclear program. Having a nuclear program is a right for any nation. Even having atomic bomb is also a right. You may be surprised about my last sentence. If we just take a look to the worlds super powers, you will know what I mean. All nations which are considered as super powers are having a nuclear bomb and even more. I know that they are not using it, however, it helps them in defending themselves. Imagine that Iraq was having such bombs, Was America going to attack and occupy it? I doubt, especially if we compare the Iraqs model to the North Korean model. America is...
