ISIS is the only one who gains.
There should have been an investigation in the incident and Congress should have been involved.
The Neocons love the attack.
These are the main reasons I have been saying that Trump had beast have irrefutable proof it was Assad and not a false flag...or CIA op.
But of course, there may be so much more going on here than we can discern.
I’m beginning to think that some folks “screwed the pooch” on the initial “intelligence” assessment of the gassing allegation and are trying to lay the framework of excuses for why there may be no actual evidence forthcoming. The below-linked article is the first I’ve heard of the hospital being bombed “possibly in an effort to cover up evidence of chemical weapons usage”.
IMHO, that (i.e., an alleged cover-up of evidence) sounds like bullshit by the “senior Pentagon officials” who were the anonymous sources for this Fox story. Good reporters will continue to ask “where’s your evidence” questions.
Anyhow, here is the article:
Excerpt:
Senior U.S. military officials said Friday the Pentagon is looking into whether Russia played a role in the chemical weapon attack in Syria that prompted retaliatory action from the Trump administration.
The U.S. officials said they were reviewing evidence regarding the attack on the northern Syrian town of Khan Sheikhoun, where more than 80 people were killed.
They said a drone belonging either to Russia or Syria was seen hovering over the site of the chemical weapons attack Tuesday after it happened.
The drone returned late in the day as citizens were going to a nearby hospital for treatment. The hospital was bombed shortly afterward, officials said, possibly in an effort to cover up evidence of chemical weapons usage.
The U.S. says a sarin-like nerve agent was used. Syria denies the claim. And the Kremlin says Syria’s government wasn’t responsible.
The U.S. officials also said they’re aware of Russians with chemical weapons expertise who’ve been in Syria.
Cooking up bioweapons for ISIS probably pays better than the NHS.
Does anyone know the reason for the chemical attack?
Why would be the motive to drop chemical weapons on civilians who are, presumably, non-combatants?
The phrase “neocon” is about as meaningful as the phrase “Climate Change.”
It can mean anything you want it to mean.
Bump. Trump was right, you are wrong.
Well McStain is happy his Raytheon shares should go up. Rubio is jubilient. Why do I feel concerned? Oh wait when the rebels take over after we unseat Assad the Syrian Christians will be toast and 6 mos later Syria will be controlled by ISIS.
"Take 2 Mercury switches with milk, tie the infection off with Det cord, and call me in the morning".
We already did the do-nothing Congress thing in 2013. That’s how Russia got invited to the table. That worked out so well.
Well that seals it then. Not buying this attack.
Let them kill each other.
It’s been proven over and over again the the so-called humanitarian ‘White Helmets’ ranks are stuffed full of jihadists.
Never can trust anything coming out of the mouth of muslims in the Middle East. Never trust, always verify when it comes to them. Did any Western doctors ever see the victims of this bombing attack? If not, do not send the Tomahawks until they do.
A lot like Milosevic waking up one morning and saying: “Gee, I think I’ll go bomb a Sarajevo marketplace today for no reason that anyone can think of but it will effectively give the US reason to bomb someone that al qaeda despises!”.
Jihadi doctors and medical students are killers.
This was revealed years ago:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1556802/The-people-who-cure-you-will-kill-you.html
Like anybody cares that Muslims in the Mideast got killed.
And no Congress is not the CiC, never was, they already authorized the office of the president to act long ago under the war powers act.
So Russia stupidity is killed, China is respectful. NK is in hiding, and those who relied on Russia’s hyped-up missile defense system are in shock. All for a handful of buildings, some planes and a place Americans really gives a dam about.
I’m still not convinced Assad did this gas attack. Could have been a rebel weapons storage facility that contained the gas.
It is extremely suspicious that this particular “doctor” shows up on the scene. In all of Syria, what are the odds????
That fact alone calls for aggressive investigations.
The Neocons love the attack.
