Echoes of Chalabi (in Syria)

Right on cue, up pops a Syrian Chalabi in the WSJ and NYSun.
As allegations mount that Syria is pursuing a nuclear program, a leading Syrian-American organization says it’s working to bring to Washington a Syrian military scientist once deeply involved in Damascus’s atomic activities.

The Syrian National Council has been among the most aggressive U.S. organizations pushing for regime change in Damascus. And its leader, Farid Ghadry, has been a regular interlocutor with the White House on Middle East policy.

“We want him [the scientist] to debrief the Congress and the administration” on all of Syria’s nuclear programs, Ghadry said.


It all sounds so familiar, somehow......
