Glenn Beck Has A Good Laugh At The Absurd Claim That Syria Handed Over Chemical Weapons

Glenn Beck and his co-hosts were decidedly unimpressed by yesterday’s White House press briefing at which press secretary Josh Earnest attempted to make the case the President Obama’s foreign policy has been working to bring “tranquility” to the world.

When challenged to defend this assertion, Earnest repeatedly cited the destruction of Syria’s chemical weapons stockpile, which Beck and his co-hosts mocked since obviously everyone knows that nothing ever came of that, with Beck saying that the only way Syria has gotten rid of any of its weapons is by shipping them over America’s southern border:

Of course, as usual it is Beck who is utterly clueless:

It’s been a little over a year since President Barack Obama accused the Syrian government of crossing a “red line,” with the use of poison gas against civilians. This week, the last of the country’s declared chemical weapons stockpiles are sailing to their eventual demise.

On Wednesday, 600 metric tons of Syrian chemicals weapons were transferred from a Danish ship to the U.S. government container ship, the Cape Ray, at an Italian port, Gioia Tauro.

The Cape Ray is now set to sail into international waters, where the on-board process of neutralizing the chemicals will be carried out, according to the OPCW, the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, which led the mission to remove and destroy the weapons.

It’s shocking that Beck would be so wrong about this, given that he has been totally accurate with all his other comments about Syria.
