What is "the most conclusive evidence to date?" Can they share it?

Sorry did you claim you worked in the field of law?

Do they make public any evidence before anyone has been charged or before a war crime criminal case?

Syria's army said Israeli air strikes on Thursday killed two people at a military facility in the country's west, a zone where the regime has been accused of developing chemical weapons. The army statement said it took place near the town of Masyaf and warned against the "dangerous repercussions of this aggressive action to the security and stability of the region".

An Israeli army spokeswoman earlier declined to discuss reports of a strike in Syria, saying the army does not comment on operational matters. Israeli officials have in the past admitted that Israel has attacked weapons shipments bound for Lebanon's Iran-backed Hezbollah group, an ally of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, without specifying which ones. Amos Yadlin, a former head of Israeli military intelligence, tweeted that the reported attack was not routine and targeted a Syrian military scientific centre.

Only Israel has the balls to do what is right.

They did it before when they daringly took out the Syrian Nuclear  reactor.

Can anyone imagine a nuclear weapon in the hands of Assad, where he has already used chemical weapons numerous times against civilians?

They took out the nuclear facility in Iraq, through yet another daring raid. The world publicly condemned Israel, but behind closed doors, the world sighed a huge relief, including more than anyone Iran. Though the later would never admit it.

Can anyone imagine a Nuke in the hands of Saddam, who also used chemical weapons against the Kurds, Iranians etc?

Like I say, at least Israel, does what is needed to be done. In order to save lives in the short and long term for people.

So it is yet to be proven. In that case it's a non-story.

Let's wait until they show up.

Its hardly a non-story when people have died from chemical attacks and that now they have the evidence to prove this. What on earth do you think a criminal investigation is dear chap? The difficulty will be on how to charge and convict Assad with these crimes. Not on the fact they now know chemical weapons were used by his forces. This is not the first time such evidence has been proven with Assad forces using chemical weapons.

Patience, didge. We all know they are looking into it. But let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Your piece announces something that cannot be released. So be it. It's not a story yet.
