DEVELOPING: Possible Chemical Weapons Attack in Syria
The Interpreter ^ | 4-11-2014 | James Miller

There are reports of a possible chemical weapons attack in at least one area of Syria, but possibly more. Below we will be analyzing the information as it comes in.

2034 GMT: A potentially very important video. This claims to have been taken this evening in Kafr Zita, and it is uploaded by a channel that has posted videos nearly exclusively from Kafr Zita. It claims to show a helicopter dropping a barrel bomb filled with the chemical weapons. SNIP- Just today, the Local Coordination Committees reported that five people were killed in Harasta and several more were injured in Harasta. We’ll analyze that evidence if we can find it.

2013 GMT: Before the chemical weapons attack was reported, the town of Kafr Zita was already under attack. Note from the lighting conditions that this was taken earlier than the videos of the reported chemical attack, and residents were already complaining of being hit by barrel bombs:

Doesn’t Syria have systems for delivering gas slightly more sophisticated than dropping a barrel from a Helicopter?

Might be part of the false flag effort by Turkey.

And somebody just happened to be documenting the whole thing.

Probably the rebels gassing the innocents again to gin up support from the White Hut.

“Probably the rebels gassing the innocents again to gin up support from the White Hut.”

That is my first thought, as well.
It is completely within the realm of possibility, given how badly Obama’s Ukraine gambit is working out.

Now up on Al-Arabiya:
Syrian activists report new Assad poison attack
http://english.alarabiya.net/en/News/middle-east/2014/04/11/Syrian-regime-attacks-Harasta-with-poison-gas-activists.html

“Syrian opposition news outlet claimed Friday the government troops attacked a Damascus suburb with poison gas and that residents were showing symptoms of shortness of breath.

The Shaam News Network identified the Damascus suburb of Harasta as the site of the poison gas attack and said that at least 100 residents were critical condition.”

The terrorists want us to do more than just provide them weapons. They want us to overthrow another government like they had us do in Libya.

I am sure Obama will be more than happy to help the terrorists.

Times of London, this morning:

Assad ‘spreading terror with new chemical attacks’

Britain and America are investigating claims that the Syrian government has carried out a series of new chemical attacks in the suburbs of Damascus.

British officials said yesterday that they were “aware of multiple allegations” of chemical attacks designed, it is alleged, to terrorise opposition-controlled areas around the capital.

It is claimed that the regime is using toxic industrial substances, rather than weaponised chemicals

I can’t help but feel like the Nevada ranch raid by BLM is a planned distraction from Syria.
The timing is just so convenient.

BLM may regret the hard way in pushing this.

Globalists keep chipping away, trying to stir up the right-wing base to support military intervention to assimilate Syria.

Back and forth, from Syria to Ukraine.

Us lifelong Repubs are supposed to jump up and shout for war.

Too bad, I’m an ex-Repub now, no interest in any more engineered wars.

Time to hunt down and prosecute globalists.
