Cheney: Use of chemical weapons is 'red line' for NATO intervention
Politico via Yahoo ^ | March 21st, 2022 | Shayna Greene

Rep. Liz Cheney on Sunday agreed with Chuck Todd on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that the use of chemical weapons should be a “red line” for NATO to intervene in Ukraine.

“I think that we in the West, the United States and NATO — we need to stop telling the Russians what we won't do,” Cheney (R-Wyo.) said. “We need to be very clear that we are considering all options, that the use of chemical weapons is certainly something that would alter our calculations.”

Russian forces have bombed schools, hospitals and other civilian centers within the four weeks of their assault on Ukraine. Now, global leaders are concerned Russia is about to employ the use of chemical weapons.

Earlier in the month, Russia accused Ukraine of harboring chemical weapons, which U.S. officials believe to be a “false-flag” strategy to give Russia justification to use its own chemical or biological weaponry.

The term “red line” was also used by then-President Barack Obama in 2013. Obama had threatened airstrikes against Syrian government forces as a consequence for using chemical weapons. In that situation, Russian leader Vladimir Putin offered to force close ally Syrian President Bashar Assad to surrender his chemical arsenal if Obama promised not to bomb.

Pretty sure NATO has no ability to conduct a chemical attack anymore. I know the US retired their chemical weapons some time ago. The contention was that they were of very limited utility against a modern military force but worked great to kill large numbers of civilians.

Cheney is the ultimate Deep Stater.

This is the announced False Flag that will get the war started and the nukes hot.

Cheney is telling us how she and the deep state intend to get us into WW3. Sadly when a Chemical attack occurs many people here will think Russia did it, and will be crying for war.

1. False flags on the way.

2. And they’ll pretend that tear gas was nerve gas or WW-I mustard gas.0

I wonder how much the Cheney and Biden families stand to make off a Russia / NATO war? We can also be certain that no Cheney family members will be serving in the war.
