Syria denies nuclear goal
A front-page editorial in the government newspaper Tishrin also criticized the United States for failing to condemn a Sept. 6 Israeli incursion, which it called a violation of international law.
Details of the incursion remain unclear. U.S. officials have said Israeli warplanes struck a target. A senior U.S. nonproliferation official said last week that North Korean personnel were in Syria helping its nuclear program.
Syria has said only that warplanes entered its airspace and came under anti-aircraft fire. Israel has clamped a news blackout on the raid.
