Syria produced a “ridiculously huge amount” of deadly sarin gas, says an internal Defense Department memo written amid the Obama administration’s effort to remove and destroy all the country’s chemical weapons.
That stockpile, which Obama aides declared was reduced to zero by summer 2014, is back in the news.
President Trump on Wednesday accused Syrian President Bashar Assad of once again committing mass murder against his own people by unleashing sarin gas on a town in Idlib province, killing dozens of innocents.
His words raise the question, where did the sarin come from? An intelligence official said, that at this point, the U.S. does not know.
“Our incompetence did not get all of Assad’s chemical weapons,” said James Dolbow, a former Republican Senate defense aide.
It was Mr. Assad’s brutal use of sarin in August 2013 that prompted President Barack Obama to plan airstrikes on a wide number of Syrian military targets. The raids were averted when Russian President Vladimir Putin, an Assad protector, intervened and proposed that Syrian voluntarily give up its chemical weapons. . .

Obama Lied About Removing All Chemical Weapons from Syria
Apr 6, 2017
RUSH: There’s a fact-check outfit out there called PolitiFact, and it’s like all the other fact-check outfits. The Washington Post has one; the AP has one. These fact-check outfits exist only to discredit and impugn Trump. Well, the PolitiFact has had to retract a story they categorized as “mostly true” three years ago, and this story is big. Three years ago, Barack Obama and his Regime were an abject disaster. But they were claiming success after success after success, particularly in the Middle East.
One of the things that the Obama administration was celebrating was that they had completely removed chemical weapons from Syria. Obama drew that red line and the Syrians and everybody else realized the bad actor they were dealing with, and they cowered in fear, and they did remove 100% of their chemical weapons. There’s a problem now, though. Those chemical weapons were just used in an attack in Syria on Syrian citizens. So how could the Obama administration have gotten rid of all of these? The Obama… You know what the claim was? They claimed they gave all of that chemical weapons stock to the Russians.
Oh, yeah! Yeah, folks! The Obama administration — now the dire enemy of the Russians, victimized by the Russians — gave the chemical weapon stocks in Syria to the Russians.
Which means the Russians probably gave it right back to the Syrians. But the PolitiFact story retracts a 2014 article that said it was “mostly true” that the Obama administration “helped broker a deal that successfully removed 100% of chemical weapons from Syria.” So a story that was a lie backed up by PolitiFact for three years has been retracted, and the upshot is the Obama administration did not succeed in successfully removing all of Syria’s chemical weapons, as we now know because those weapons were used recently.

This seems like deja vu all over again.
Uh huh, they forgot about this when they did the false flag gas attack. CYA time, I guess.
We all know the O admin always told the troof, ain’t that right MSM? /sarc
The sarin gas could have come from Russia and/or Iran.
Thanks.
When you have a ridiculously huge amount of islams ruining your country, you just may need a ridiculously huge amount of defense.
They can’t have that Sarin Gas.
Obama removed it.
What we all should have learned by now is that nearly every headline we read, while not necessarily false, is only there as part of highly managed, constructed narrative.
“The Pentagon memo” release is simply what one faction of our massive, highly political government apparatus wants you to see, and to react to.
Right, and the author of this article: Rowan Scarborough has been there and seen how much sarin gas they have, does he/she have pictures of that?
I have another question, don’t know if people noticed or not, but how come other people around the bodies of those killed, why weren’t they wearing masks and gloves???
Isn’t that a very dangerous gas???
Sounds like the same story that got us into Iraq. Lincoln was right, you can fool some of the people again and again
Was Rowan one of the reporters who reported that Saddam had WMDs? Just wondering
I’m being weird but....... the Susan Rice/Obama treason gets legs - front page - and then......... gas attack?
It’s just so typical Obama era coincidence
bullshit.
Where?
The “Islamic State” has chemical weapons too.

Well I’m convinced. Everyone knows how competent and non-political the Pentagon is.
Well I’m convinced. Everyone knows how competent and non-political the Pentagon is.
Yep.
Next up, there were no WMDs, Donald Trump lied!
I don’t know...does anyone else know???
