‘Warheads ready to be relocated’
In a highly-classified -- but undated -- document sent from Iran, Qasem Soleimani, commander of the Quds Force, a division of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), addressed President Assad directly, affirming that the chemical warheads are ready to be relocated.
This was in contrary to previous statements by Iran that it would not support any country with plans to use the chemicals.
Last week, U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta had already divulged that the Syrians have moved some of their chemical weapons capability to better secure it.
It was not clear when the movement took place, or even if it was recent, but Panetta told a Pentagon news conference it had occurred in more than one case.
Reason why document was undated
In another leaked document, also obtained by Al Arabiya; an order sent from the Syrian Presidential Palace and signed by the head of the Foreign Intelligence Service; Maj. Gen. Bassam Marhej discusses the detection of an “administrative error.”
The error, which apparently is a leak of secret documents, was discovered by the Joint Command (Syria-Iran-Russia) in cooperation with the Syrian embassy in Moscow.
The supposed “error” was likely related to information about Syria’s chemical weapons stockpiles.
According to Marhej -- and following the discovery of the “error” -- Syrian President Assad issued orders prohibiting writing reference numbers and/or dates on secret official documents.
He also ordered that all top-secret (written) instructions to be delivered ‘by hand’ and to be ‘burnt’ following receipt along with all telegram and written communication in all embassies and diplomatic missions.
Assad’s confidentiality instructions were to be implemented immediately, the document said.
