By Janet Phelan
Following the ISIS attack in Paris, France, the US and its allies aremaking further and more dramatic claims concerning ISIS’s capability to
strike with deadly force. According to France, the US and others, ISIS
is developing chemical weapons.
Unnamed US official sources were quoted extensively in a recent AP article, stating that ISIS was known to be developing chemical weapons.
And on November 19, the Prime Minister of France issued this warning.
“We must not rule anything out,” said Prime Minister Manuel Valls. “I
say it with all the precautions needed. But we know and bear in mind
that there is also a risk of chemical or bacteriological weapons.”
