Hi Hawkmoon; Re: "If it becomes public knowledge that Syria is holding these weapons, then Israel will go nuts (IMO)."

Why would Israel care? Everyone already knows that Syria has their own WMDs. So does Iran, for that matter, and they're not exactly big buddies of Israel.

This one is telling:

Syria is to demand that Israel give up its nuclear weapons in return for a pledge by Damascus to dismantle biological and chemical weapons. The initiative shows a new approach to security issues in coming negotiations between the two countries. .'If this is the Syrian demand, it will be a bad sign, because Syria knows this is a non-starter for Israel,' said Uzi Arad, political adviser to Benjamin Netanyahu, the former prime minister. Israel keeps its nuclear weapons program under tight cover.
