No evidence of chemical attack in Douma - Dr Assim Rahaibani, Syrian doctor

A British journalist who interviewed a doctor in the Syrian town of Douma claims he told him there was no evidence of a chemical attack.

Dr Assim Rahaibani, 58, said the video showing children gasping for breath - which triggered the weekend bombing campaign by the UK, US and France - is genuine.

But he explained to Robert Fisk, writing for the Independent, that patients were overcome not by gas but by oxygen starvation in the rubbish-filled tunnels and basements in which they lived, on a night of wind and heavy shelling that stirred up a dust storm.

Donald Trump and Theresa May seized on the video as evidence that Syria's President Bashar al-Assad had crossed a 'red line' in his fight against jihadi forces that have all but been removed from their strongholds in the war-torn country.

Chemical weapons inspectors will be given access to the site on Wednesday (April 18).

The word Russia.

I'm noticing that when anyone posts/mentions that OAN report it's just crickets....severe crickets. OAN is totally pro MAGA, and they actually do real journalism.

Unlike Fox etc., a bunch of useless city dwellers sitting on their unprofessional, lazy, fat asses giving everyone their opinions about everything.

If you read the OAN report, you’ll find he wasn’t in Douma...He interviewed several people who claimed to have been at Douma...

There was a question raised as to who selected the people he was allowed to interview...

I was in Kuwait as a civilian during the last hours of the war...take your Russian scum comments and shove em.

The person who invented MAGA says the Syrians used chemical weapons against civilians and ordered the US Military to attack because of it.

Have you noticed that?

I miss Trump 2013.

FLASHBACK: Here’s A List Of The Times Trump Warned Against Getting Involved In Syria

President Trump announced a new bombing campaign in Syria on Friday to target chemical weapons.

In the past, President Trump has warned many times against getting further involved in the Syrian civil war.

Who has the burden of proof here? The people supporting the US attack are trying to explain away the rebuttal evidence that is trickling out, presuming that Syria has the burden of proving that it did not deserve to be attacked. But doesn’t the US have the burden of proving its right to attack a nation that was attacking neither the US nor any nation allied with it?

[Berlin_Freeper]

Who got involved in the Syrian civil war?

[JBW1949]

In other words, you don’t want Trump 2018.....

[JBW1949]

So you don’t consider Israel an ally of the USA???

[Safetgiver]

Being a democrat.

Obama started aiding the ISIS-aligned Syrian rebels.

You sure are desperate

[Safetgiver]

Isreal got attacked? Did they ask us to respond?

[piasa]

Any time you find a reporter citing evil’s personal handmaiden, Robert Fisk, you know the report isn’t worth anything.

[Berlin_Freeper]

Thanks for sharing those blog opinions.

The USA has been fighting against ISIS in Syria. If Obama was fighting against Assad he did a poor job running away from his red line and allowing Russia to move in.

Fact is President Trump attacked against Assad’s use of chemical weapons on civilians and stated he is pulling out of Syria.

So what now is all your crapping about?

[JBW1949]

They have been attacked by Syria several times...

You said why attack someone who didn’t attack America or any of it’s allies...Israel is an ally...Whether they asked for response or not doesn’t matter as to your comment..
