Biden should close the US Southern Border? Israel and the United States had opposed further Russian Soviet designarms sales to Syria due to fears that the weapons could fall under the control of Iran or Hezbollah fighters in Lebanon. Among the Syrian 41 Naval vessel fleet were 2 frigates, 22 missile attack craft (including 10 advanced Osa II missile boats), 2 submarine chasers, 4 mine warfare vessels, 8 gunboats, 6 patrol craft, 4 missile corvettes (on order), 3 landing craft (on order), 1 torpedo recovery vessel and, as part of its coastal defence system, Sepal shore-to-sea missiles with a range of 300 kilometers.

Syria has been blown apart, the BBC reported in September 2015 that, according to an unnamed U.S. official, the U.S. believes that ISIS had used powdered mustard agent at least four times in Syria and Iraq, that ISIS had probably manufactured the mustard agent itself. Syria is generally considered not to have biological weapons. However, there are some reports of an active biological weapons research and production program. According to NATO Consultant Dr Jill Dekker, Syria has worked on: anthrax, plague, tularemia, botulism, smallpox, aflatoxin, cholera, ricin and camelpox, and has used Russian help in installing anthrax in missile warheads.

proliferation is the spread of biological and chemical weapons to terrorist groups, and weapons-applicable to WMD. Syria disclosed that it maintained a ricin chemical weapons, the USA and Russia have talked about Syria's WMDs and Israeli intelligence community believes the Syrian government retains several tons of chemical weapons. The Syria Nuclear file at the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) remains open, amid Syria's failure to respond to the IAEA's questions. Syria implicitly confirmed it possessed a stockpile of chemical weapons which it says are reserved for national defense against foreign countries.

the Syrian Armed Forces don't really exist anymore, the Army is mostly gone, their Naval ships gone, sinking, ships burning, the Syria Airforce has not really been seen. The U.S. National Air and Space Intelligence Center reported in 2009 that Syria possessed road-mobile Scud-D and Tochka missiles, with fewer than 100 launchers.[74] In addition Syria has aircraft and artillery delivery systems.
