So what is the “truth?” I am even more suspicious of the “intelligentsia” than of the intelligence services. Many professors are so left wing they would sell America out for a shoe buckle just to get their names in the papers.
I do not pretend to know the truth, however I would like to see a real investigation.
Cui bono? It seems highly implausible that Assad did the one thing that would turn the West against him just as the USA said it would not seek his ouster.
