This bogus scheme has been used several times in Syria. Announce there could be a “chemical attack by Assad”, then stage it.
Do you really believe the Trump Administration has been doing this? If it was us doing it, you can bet he wasn’t put in the loop....I noticed that after the other “incidents”, he got quiet on the topic for a while and then announced the intent to pull out - I’d wager he finally got enough good info to know it was the Assad opposition that was doing it....any bets if any behind the scenes conversation went on and are going on today?
