OAN Investigation Finds No Evidence Of Chemical Weapon Attack In Syria
One America News Network (OAN) ^ | 4/16/18 | Pearson Sharp

Posted on 04/16/2018 2:14:47 PM PDT by Trumpisourlastchance

One America News’ Pearson Sharp visited the war-torn town of Douma outside the capital of Damascus, looking for evidence of a chemical attack. However, residents there deny the claims of an attack, and say it was staged to help the rebels escape.

This is from last year, but YES Obama and McCain’s Jihadists were caught this time last year running a False Flag. It was the 3rd time the Jihadists have been caught doing this.

So it happens again like clock work as soon as President Trump says we are pulling U.S. troops out of Syria. Immediately the usual warmongers accuse Assad of doing it. There is debate about who did it and if there really was a chemical attack or something else. Coincidence??? I don’t think so.

Within 24 hours Israel attacks without properly investing this. Many people accuse Israel of trying to cover up what happened. The U.N. decides to have an investigative team come this week to determine if this really happened. Too late we attack Syria even though the Secretary of Defense said we had no information confirming it.

What’s funny is that we hit these buildings where the Sarin gas is at, and no one dies nearby within 5 miles. You can’t hit them and think nothing is going to happen. How much money did the U.S. tax payers pay on those missiles vs. the cost of building the building in Syria. I believe we blew up a few million dollar buildings that cost us about $180 million. This is reminiscent of President Reagan blowing up Muammar Gaddafi tents in the desert with million dollar missiles and bombs.

Seems like Soros and the Deep State are in full control after President Trump’s lawyer office was raided. Hillary is going to get that war in Syria and with Russia we all did not want. You have people like Pocahontas Elizabeth Warren praising President Trump.

Even if the chemical attack was not a False Flag, which I believe it is, then we still have no business over there. It’s not our fight. If Israel wants to fight Syria, then let them do it.

Gen. Mattis in recent days stated the evidence was strong enough to warrant the strikes. I trust his word above anyone’s, including an OAN reporter fed info by Syrians.

No matter how any of it’s framed....I’m for anyone who gets rid of chemical weapon storage being used in Syria. and there’s no doubt it’s been used by ISIS and others. Over 52 gas attacks throughout Syria and Iraq.

Kremlin agents or not... There needs to be some trust in government and if Trump is convinced that they used chemical armaments, that’s good enough for me. At least he is doing something... Syria and the Russian’s crossed Obama’s ‘line in the sand’ and they laughed because of his ineptness. They will not do he same when Trump draws a line.

Well he's got the means to find out so I'd say the probability is very high he'd know with certainty in time......so I'll accept the evidence he's going by is likely so.

If you want the USA to act—have the people you want blown up blamed for a poison gas attack! Make some great heart wrenching videos—and there you go. Putin, make a video of Ukrainans gassing a Russian Orphanage —lots of coughing children. Weeping nuns, Your special effects people can come up with something really convincing. Pali’s Make a Video of Israelis Gassing a village, lots of women and children, video of screaming and painful scenes—Your people have loads of actors and experience. Then the US will Bomb Israel! Conservatives, Make a video of Cartel people gassing Americans, lots of weeping, terrible stuff, and trump will Bomb Mexican Cartels centers! This can get really out of control fast.

IF we were wrong, we blew up a lot of Syrian chemical weapons on mis-information. Hmmm, is there a downside to this?

Great question.

hmmm. They had days to evacuate the staff, so why not the stuff? sounds like the Iraq intel. Was also reading the replies at OAN and chlorine dissipates quickly? It stays in my nose, but don’t know if someone who would walk in after I used it would smell it.

No doubt the intelligence resources of OAN totally surpass the combined intelligence resources of the UK, France and the US ...

There were no chemical weapons in the buildings we hit.

Yes, they were cancer research centers and baby milk factories!

At some point, all this conspiracy nonsense crosses over into being crazy.

I would also like to hear a logical explanation as to why Assad has repeatedly risked using chemical weapons

Duh -- because it is a lot easier to wipe your enemies that way and, with Russia's help, he has gotten away with it before.

He's launched 50 chemical weapons attacks. Yes, he's a brutal dictator and not a nice guy.

I myself (i.e. ME AAABEST) was accused of being a Russian agent

Maybe you're just someone that has listened to Alex Jones too much.

If the gas event was real, then this was Trump’s red line with consequences. Zero’s red line as just that a line drawn by a magic marker. I think this is Trump’s way of saying “ok Assad & Putin fight your war in Syria, maybe even win it but no gas! Remember I am not Zero!”.

It also sends a message of strength to Iran.

Personally I hope we pull out!

I’ve been called a “Putinista”. I don’t have access to the intelligence that our leaders have, but it doesn’t make sense to me that Assad would do that a few days after Trump indicated he wanted to get out of Syria as soon as possible.

I haven't even taken a position yet one way or the other as to whether a chemical attack took place, but I'm leaning toward the whole thing smells.

And it's brought out usual war-monger types that slither up through the floorboards at the idea of more troops and treasure wasted the MidEast.

I doubt few in the west know who to believe in Syria, about anything in Syria. It is not just a military “quagmire, it is an information quagmire drowning in a sea of disinformation from every angle. I doubt, seriously, those at OAN know for sure whom among the Syrians they can trust to get the story straight, because I doubt there is any Syrian that is not part of one agenda or another in Syria, and thus will “report” what serves the agenda they either are a part of or see themselves siding with.

For me the only ones there I can trust is the Kurds, because their singular agenda is about their existential survival as a unique and independent people whose lives and fortunes keep getting directed by the powers of others over them.

Why wouldn't he if, with Russia's help, he thought he could get away with it and that Trump wouldn't do anything about it?

Yes, chemical weapons cause less damage to cities and are more effective at wiping one's enemies. That would be the reason Assad has used them more than 50 times.

I almost ALWAYS against whatever they are for... so there's that.

Why the rush. Let’s have a through investigation before starting WW-III.
