Because they're cheap, effective and don't destroy roads, houses or equipment.
Yes, the United Nations sent a team to Syria to get the chemical weapons.
The common justification is having weapons of mass destruction. Iraq was accused of having nuclear weapons that proved later to not true. Syria was accused of using chemical weapons against Syrian people although the inspection team have not yet proved whether the chemical weapons used by the government or by the opposition.
I think he would not because. Syria already handed over their chemical weapons. But Obama no matter what wants to attack.
Dismantling chemical weapons is important because chemical weapons can cause damage to a larger group of people giving them illnesses, birth defects, defects in their body and leads to many deaths as we have seen in some cases like Syria.
Syria has never had any nuclear weapons.
syria sources say they have stock piles of chemical/biological weapons althought there weapons are old they have lots of it.
No, chemical weapons disperse quickly within a short distance of the release point. They are unfortunately rather unpredictable often affecting the user as well as the target. If used in Damascus, Syria it is unlikely that there will be any effects outside the city. Excellent question.

According to current negotiations, it does not. The reason that some people make the argument that Israel should have to give up weapons is to create a chemical and nuclear weapons free Middle East. This has the slightly sinister motive of making Israel appear more vulnerable. The premise of Israel having to level with Syria is flawed since while Israel does have nuclear weapons, it has never threatened to use them nor has it actually used them. Conversely, Syria has both threatened to use and has used chemical weapons both in war and against civilian populations. Those who misuse such weapons should be punished whereas those who do not need not be bothered.
Weapons of mass destruction (WMD) have been used in conflicts, such as chemical weapons used in the Iran-Iraq War, the use of sarin gas in the Tokyo subway attack, and the suspected use of chemical weapons in Syria. The use of WMD is internationally condemned due to the devastating impact on civilians and the environment.
Biochemical Warfare is war using weapons of a biological or chemical nature. such as biotoxins. Anthrax bombs are a good example of bichemical weapons. To use weapons of mass distruction.
