The only sensible response by the President when he is confronted by this type of report is:
“We are deeply concerned that either side would use chemical weapons, whether against opposing troops or civilians. American military and intelligence agencies are looking into these reports and I will not make any further comments until I receive a full briefing, which may take some time.”
There are no good guys in Syria. Assad is a murdering dictator, ISIS is filled with religious fanatics who have no limits to their inhumanity, the Iranians and their proxy Hezbollah will do anything to destabilize Israel and cause damage to the USA, Turkey is looking for an excuse to annex parts of northern Syria and Iraq, and Russia is ruled by an organized crime boss who has never hesitated to murder civilians and political opponents to keep his iron grip on the new Russian Empire. Any of these animals are capable of perpetrating an attack on their opponents and/or making a disguised attack on their own people to cast the blame on their opponents. Finish off ISIS then get the hell out of Syria and Iraq.
What is needed is absolute proof. Not casting blame without any actual proof. We have no right to be in Syria anyway without the legitimate governments sanction and approval. I was disappointed in Trumps conclusion that this Chemical weapons factory was Assad’s fault. That makes no sense.I trust that he is not doing this as a pretext to attack a sovereign nation with absolutely no evidence , Wht would Assad and the Russians use sarin gas on innocent civilians. There is no reason. It makes no sense. This was a sarin factory built in a populated area that was destroyed on the ground.With satellites we know where and when any jet takes of. We can see ths factory aftermath from 10 feet away.Where is the proof. Why are they jumping to conclusions like they did in 2014 when that alleged attack by Syria was proven totally false. What jas Assad ever done to this country? I don’t get this false flag propaganda nonsense. Is this John McCain? I am stunned Trump fell for this baloney.
