United States Arms Sales Syria

Although Syria and Iran remain on the State Department list of nations that sponsor terrorism, the Bush Administration has opened the way to sell sensitive American technology to the Middle Eastern countries, according to interviews and documents.

The Bush Administration, repeating what Democrats charged was the same mistake it made with Iraq, over the last year has approved the sale to Iran and Syria of $183 million worth of equipment with possible military applications, according to figures released Wednesday by the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
