Was Chemical Attack in Syria a “False Flag” to Trigger U.S. War?
The New American ^ | 07 April 2017 | Alex Newman

While there is no proof yet either way, there are good reasons to at least consider the prospect that the sarin gas attack on civilians in Syria this week could have been a “false flag” operation. The last time Syrian dictator Bashar al Assad supposedly used chemical weapons, the story quickly collapsed under scrutiny. The more likely scenario, according to United Nations investigators and virtually every credible analyst who looked at the 2013 crime, was that globalist-backed jihadist “rebels” used the chemicals in a “false-flag” scheme. The goal: Blame Syrian authorities in a bid to trigger U.S. government intervention against Assad.

Foreign officials and more than a few prominent analysts have suggested the same deception may have just played out once again, albeit more successfully this time. Former Congressman and longtime non-interventionist Ron Paul, for example, declared that there was “zero chance” that Assad had ordered the chemical attack. “It doesn’t make any sense for Assad under these conditions to all of a sudden use poisonous gases,” he said, noting that the situation for Assad and his regime was looking better until the chemical attack this week. In a tweet that sparked headlines around the world, Paul called the attack a “false flag.”

This is an excellent article about the Obama administrations record in Syria.

From the article:

"Smoking-gun evidence exists proving that the globalist establishment was willing to facilitate unspeakable crimes to remove Assad from power. In fact, the Obama administration, Sunni Muslim dictators, and others were so determined to achieve regime change that they were willing to support a rebellion that they knew was led by al-Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood, according to a 2012 U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency document. That same document outlines an illegal plot to help create a “salafist principality” — known today as the Islamic State, or ISIS — in Eastern Syria to destabilize Assad. Trump is well aware of this scheme. And top Obama officials admitted it in public."

The facts show a strong likelihood the recent "chemical attack" was actually a false flag operation to ensnare the Trump administration into the same alliances with ISIS, al-Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood.

The article does not come to a definitive conclusion but the evidence is substantial. The media and the Obama holdovers are not to be trusted.

I would not be surprised either way, given the welter of agendas which have proliferated in the Middle East.

“I would not be surprised either way”

Sadly, the list of people and sources you can trust keeps getting smaller everyday.

If the chemical attack was somehow conducted by Iranians forces operating in Syria i would believe their intent would be to draw the US in to combat.

It would also benefit Saudi and Katari interests.

I think Assad may have done it, or that it is possible that a conventional bomb struck a terrorist facility.

Civil War. Did the English bomb the United States during General Sherman's march to the sea?

Did the Soviet Union bomb us right after the US dropped two A-bombs on Japan? Did the French bombed the US when children were shot and burned alive during the Waco siege?



Hypocrisy is astounding, especially when defending rebels who systematically murdered Christians, segregated the schools among the sexes, and hangs pictures of Osama Bin Laden on their school walls. Yes, these are supposedly the "good guys" Trump (Ivanka at least), military complex, and the media are defending
