I noticed another post mentioning the blog aspect of this. I agree that’s way too sketchy for posting here. We need to hold our people accountable, but we shouldn’t always jump to the worst possible conclusion. That was my emphasis.

May not be proof, but is as substantial as the “youtubes” Obama is using as proof.

Notice how we have yet to see any cannister or bomb fragments.

As reliable as the NYT doesn’t make them worth passing along their disinformation.

Poor sourcing makes for a poor argument.

I'm sure our "news" media will do all they can to "discredit" this report.

After all, a Dem is in the WH, not a Repub. Also, they recognize it for what it probably is: the spread of disinformation designed to confuse people and muddle the issue, something our Dem-controlled media are well-versed at.

Agreed...

Or no argument at all.

...sad we have to go to the Daily Mail and the Telegraph...

It's progress. Up until about a year ago, we had to go to Pravda.

This "Newbie" has 9 years more on FR than you :-)

And can point to doodoo you don't even know exist.

Where do you want to start?

Providing WMD to Saddam?

Training of AQ in Afghanistan ?

Working hand in hand with Iranians to bring AQ to Bosnia?

Or training KLA and staging massacre in order to justify attack Serbia?

The role of U.S. trained Bosnian AQ in 911 and Madrid?

How about offing Ghadafi after he decided to rout AQ out of Libya?

I guess you got to the party too late. I forgot more than you'll probably ever know.

When I see the pattern, I know where to dig.

Here is a pebble trail for you: search who controls those who paid for Odumbo's campaign. Search for the real boss of Samanta Power, the U.S. Ambasador to U.N.

...it could have happened

A more likely scenerio is that the terrorists got chemical weapons that were left unguarded in Libya, or even given to them by the MB in Egypt. There are other similar plausible scenerios.

Obama's administration would've had at least a shred of believability if they had addressed those possibilities and the possibility that rogue soldiers in Assad's army did this.

If it’s in the Daily Telegraph, you can be sure it’s not true.
This is the UK’s answer to WorldNetDaily

One thing is clear, we don’t know the truth about anything in Syria, or Benghazi for that matter.

There was another report that Hillary had turned down requests for gas masks from the Syrian rebels.

(excerpt from Breitbart article)

“Almost three months ago, we received intelligence information that the regime forces may use chemical weapons in Homs,” said Abo Saleem, the directing commission secretary of the Council of Homs Province and a member of the political bureau of the Revolutionary Council of Homs, in an interview with The Daily Beast. “I forward the information to the State Department telling them we are afraid of the use of chemical weapons by the regime and we need gas masks and some training to prepare for such an attack. I got no response. Two weeks after that, the regime used chemical weapons in the old city of Homs, as we were expecting. We sent the State Department reports, but nothing happened.”

Sad that we have to go to the Daily Mail, and Telegraph to get news about the US, but it is the very first paper I read in the morning.

I haven't bothered with the state-run American newsrooms in over a decade. The foreign press is the only way to go. There's a reason Hillary whined about a "right wing conspiracy" so long ago. It was because she and the rats and their newsrooms suddenly came to the realization that their monopoly on the selection, disssemination, and spin of the daily news was over, and the truth could no longer be spiked or twisted with abandon.

I would expect that if 1500 people were killed by a nerve agent, there would be at least three times that many wounded by it. Where are they? Not everyone would get a lethal dose.

What did Obama know and when did he know it?

I think they say there are survivors in fact, 3 times? I don’t know the math.

The sad thing it that wise people have no reason to believe it’s not true.

Google Britam Defence Syria sarin

Files from Britam Defence Ltd. server are available on numerous sites online. It is known for at least 5-6 days but MSM keeps silent and Kerry continues to tell lies. AQ terrorists now claim their release of Sarin was by accident due to mishandling (!) The question is - why they stockpiled Sarin in the first place? Who armed terrorists with WMD?

Now it is known. Saudi chief of Intelligence used Britam to get WMD into AQ Al Nushrah Front hands and they used it.

How reliable is this information?

More than BBC using Iraqi footage to claim atrocity in Syria.

Or John Kerry who is on record falsifying his own war experience and receiving money from AQ affiliated terrorists for presidential campaign.

If they were staging the kids for the post attack, they would like have been staging evidence for the UN inspectors to collect later
