To put things into perspective, the situation in Syria is becoming alarmingly “hot”, and I am talking about a potential hot-war between Israel and Syria, which has a mutual defense pact with Iran. Let me explain: if you’re not Mr. Current Affairs, you should know that Israel attacked both Syrian and Iranian military targets on Syrian territory on Saturday, after claiming an Iranian made UAV (a drone basically) violated Israel’s airspace for one minute and half, before getting shot down by one of their attack helicopters. The drone was allegedly launched from a base in Syria; Israel’s response to the drone entering their airspace was to send F16 aircraft to attack the drone-operators in Syria, along with various military targets.

Exactly! Obama wanted to use the U.S. military to “liberate” Syria for ISIS, just like he did in Egypt and Libya. As I’ve always said, once you accept that Obama’s primary foreign policy objective was to establish an Islamic State in the Middle East, everything he did makes total sense.
Reports of the sarin attack came from Al Qaeda.
It never made any sense. The Syrians claimed the sarin release was caused when they attacked a sarin lab. Our claim was that hitting a sarin lab couldn’t cause a release, because its a binary chemical, the two halves have to be mixed to get a release.
So, we hit the air field where the government supposedly stores its sarin, hitting the planes. Asked why we didn’t just blow up the hangars were the sarin was supposedly stored, we said, because we don’t want to cause a sarin release by blowing them up. Which, to me, exposed the lie.
But in the end the sarin attack itself is in question. There was no, none, zero independent verification that it even happened. No western journalists are allowed into the area. The only sources are Al Qaeda sources.
It would make no sense for Assad to use gas. When Russia and Iran jumped to his aid, the war turned and he knew he would survive it. Gassing would set his campaign back.
Slavery? A bigger hoax than the holocaust. Didnt happen, just a bunch of hype. Finally they are banning the confederate flag and getting rid of the confederate statues...this proves slavery was a hoax. But I wonder why those who taut the hoax are so adamant in erasing it. /s
The war drums are beating. Yet again. Remember, kids, “War is the health of the State.” No War is justifiable for the US in the Middle East. ISIS is a construct. If not a construct, certainly not a threat to the US. The only threat to the US is entrenched in Washington DC and Langley VA. I fear for all of us.
When did the rocket attacks on Israel from Syria, Lebanon and Gaza end? The media never covered that it’s happening, but if it ended for any reason, I’m sure they would have been celebrating the generous peace created by Israel’s neighbors.
Headline is wrong.
Mattis said US has no evidence of Sarin gas use.Big difference.
Syria didn’t use sarin in Khan Sheikhoun and the Syrian air base we Tomahawked (which flew air missions against ISIS) didn’t have sarin either.
** The war drums are beating. Yet again. **
I would say they are beating, too. China now promising to support the legitimate government of Syria to prevent the return of Chinese Muslims fighting with rebels to China.
Here’s my shocked face. :-0
