Embattled leader
asks for proof of
chemical warfare
PARIS (AP) - France released
an incelligence reportcon Monday
alleging chemical weapons use
by Syria's regime that dovetailed
with similar U.S. claims, as Pres-
ident Bashar Assad warned that
any military strike against his
country would spark an uncon-
trollable regional war and spread
"chaos and extremism."
The verbal crossfire, includ-
ing a rejection of the Western
allegations by longtime Syrian
ally Eussia, was parc of frenzied
efforts on both sides to court
international public opinion
after President Barack Obama
said, he would seek authorization
from Congress before launch-
ing any military action against
Assad's regime.
In an interview with French
newspaper Le Figaro, Assad was
quoted as saying that Syria has
challenged the U.S. and France
to provide proof to support their
allegations, but that their lead-
ers "have been incapable of doing
that, including before their own
peoples."
"If the Americans, the French
or the British had a shred of proof,
they would have shown it begin-
ning on the first day," he said,
deriding Obama as "weak" and
having buckled to U.S. domestic
political pressure.
"We believe that a strong man
is one who prevents war, not one
who inflames it," Assad said.
French President Francois
Hollande and Obama have been
the two world leaders most
vocally calling for action against
Assad's regime, accusing it of
carrying out a deadly chemical
attack against rebel-held sub-
urbs of Damascus on Aug. 21.
