Yes, that would plausibly be a useful test. 'If there is another chemical attack after this then it must be a false flag'.

But we both know that that isn't the way the world works. The narrative will be that 'sneaky Assad somehow did it again' and 'let's bomb him'.

The Ghouta atrocity was revealed - by MPs in the Turkish parliament! - to be a Turkish false flag.

The Khan Sheikoun incident - carried out just as Assad's forces had cleared another fanatic enclave - is vastly more likely to have been an Al-Nusra operation than an Assad one.

But no - our media and governments are simply not interested. They have a compelling interest in deposing Assad, and they don't care what it costs in blood and treasure.

So I have no confidence that people will start getting the message even after a dozen more false flags. Assad will be winning a fight, or Trump will declare a withdrawal from Syria - and then another mysterious gassing will occur.

Until otherwise shown, I’ll trust President Trump has the information to do what is necessary...
