De VS
minister van defensie, James Mattis moest onlangs bekend maken dat het
Syrische bewind geen Sarin gifgas heeft gebruikt tegen haar bevolking. Niet echt nieuws voor degenen die kritisch het nieuws
volgen, echter dit zou wel een enorme aandachtstrekker moeten zijn voor de westerse reguliere media en het grootste deel van de westerse politici, daar men bij die media en politici Assad nog steeds
verantwoordelijk houdt voor deze gifgasaanvallen…. Zoals je al begrepen had: ook voor deze vaststelling van Mattis is geen belangstelling bij die media en politici……..

Uiteraard
hadden de politici en media kunnen weten dat de beweringen over
gifgasgebruik door Assad, niet op bewijzen waren gebaseerd en men in
feite genoeg had aan VN rapportages en de mening van echte
deskundigen (zo zag je hulpverleners die ‘Sarin slachtoffers’ hielpen zonder
enige bescherming >> als het Sarin gas betrof, waren die hulpverleners heel
snel zelf doodziek geworden…)

Ook de
gifgasaanval op Ghouta in 2013 werd niet uitgevoerd door het Syrische
bewind, maar door IS of Al Qaida Syrië (de laatste is vorig jaar door de VS van de
terreurlijst gehaald…..). Carla del Ponte zou destijds onderzoek voor de VN doen naar
deze gifgasaanval, maar mocht van de VS (onder ‘vredesduif’
Obama en hufter Kerry) geen onderzoek doen naar verantwoordelijkheid
voor die aanval door het Vrije Syrische Leger (bestaande uit IS en Al
Qaida terroristen)……. Terwijl bekend was dat zij beschikten over
dit gifgas…… Overigens wilde de VS ook na de gifgasaanval op Khan Sheikhoun geen onafhankelijk onderzoek toestaan……..

Dit alles terwijl als voorafgaand aan de illegale oorlog tegen Irak in 2003, VN wapeninspecteurs het reguliere Iraakse leger ‘gifgasvrij’ verklaarden……. Precies als nu, herhaalden de reguliere westerse (massa-) media en het grootste deel van de westerse politici, de leugens van de VS als zou Saddam Hoessein beschikken over ‘massavernietigingswapens…’ Moet je nagaan en dan durven diezelfde media en politici bijna dagelijks de vuilbek open te trekken over ‘fake news’ (of nepnieuws) op de sociale media…….

Kortom
Assad heeft geen gifgas ingezet tegen zijn eigen bevolking, het
zoveelste bewijs, waar het westen doof voor is…. De VS en de rest van haar hielenlikkende westerse oorlogshonden willen dat
Assad verdwijnt en daarvoor is blijkbaar alles geoorloofd, zelfs ‘false flag’ operaties door terreurgroepen…..

Overigens maakte het BBC World Service radionieuws vannacht om 1.00 u. (CET) bekend dat de VN rapporten heeft vrijgegeven waaruit zou blijken dat leveringen voor laboratoriumbenodigdheden vanuit Noord-Korea naar Syrië waren verscheept….. De BBC nieuwsredactie stelde meteen dat dit weer een bewijs is dat Assad gifgas fabriceert, ook al is daar tot nu toe niet één keer bewijs voor gevonden…… Intussen rept men met geen woord over de enorme voorraden gifgas in Israël en Egypte, van waaruit hoeveelheden zijn geleverd aan de terreurgroepen (‘gematigde rebellen’) in Syrië……

Vanmorgen vertelde lulkoek praatjesmaker Remco Breuker op BNR (rond 8.37 u.) dat Noord-Korea ook wapens, militaire adviseurs en helikopterpiloten levert aan Syrië, waarbij hij o.a. de woorden ‘geloven en vertrouwen’ gebruikte……. Ofwel: twee vliegen die het westen wil vernietigen in één klap…… Alsof het Syrische leger niet genoeg militaire adviseurs en helikopterpiloten heeft uit Rusland en Iran…… Bovendien is Syrië nog steeds een soeverein land (ook al wordt die soevereiniteit continu illegaal geschonden, o.a. door de VS, GB en Turkije)….. Syrië moet buitenlandse terreurgroepen en legers van niet genode landen van haar grondgebied zien te krijgen, een zaak waar Syrië het volste (internationale) recht toe heeft en wie het land daarbij te hulp roept is haar zaak!!

Did
Assad Use Chemical Weapons in Syria on His Own People?

(TIM) — It
was a stunning announcement, stunning because of what was said and
maybe equally as stunning because it was honest.

Secretary
of Defense James Mattis says there is no evidence that the Syrian
government used sarin gas on its own people.

It
is a narrative we have been pushing back on for years. So what does
this mean for U.S. policy in Syria?

And
will President Trump continue to push for war in Syria, or will he
return to the positions of candidate Trump who said the U.S. should
stay out of it?

Let’s
give it a Reality Check you won’t get anywhere else.

The
statement is getting very little media coverage but it is a very big
deal.

According
to Defense Secretary James Mattis, there is no evidence that the
Syrian government has used sarin gas on its own people.

Here
is exactly what Mattis told reporters at the Pentagon:
“We
have other reports from the battlefield from people who claim it’s
been used.”

“We
do not have evidence of it.”

“We’re
looking for evidence of it, since clearly we are dealing with the
Assad regime that has used denial and deceit to hide their outlaw
actions.”

Mattis
insists that he wasn’t refuting the claims. But in a sense, he did.

According
to Newsweek, in 2017 a White House memorandum was quickly produced
and then declassified to justify an American Tomahawk missile strike
against the Shayrat airbase in Syria.

The
justification used was that Assad had used chemical weapons on his
own people. Then President Trump himself insisted that there was no
doubt that Syrian President Assad had killed his own people with
banned chemical weapons.

But
Mattis also didn’t qualify the statement to just the Syrian airbase
strike. That means that the 2013 gas attack in Ghouta also was not
proven to be Assad.

At
that time, President Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry were
demanding congress approve use of force against Assad. Obama said
this from the rose garden as he said American destroyers armed with
Tomahawk missiles were on standby in the Mediterranean Sea.

“I’m
prepared to give that order, but having made my decision as commander
in chief based on what I am convinced is our national security
interests, I’m also mindful that I’m the president of the world’s
oldest constitutional democracy.”

Congress
did not approve that use of force, but then applauded Trump for his
use.

For
his part, in this latest statement, Mattis says that “aid
groups and others” had
provided evidence of the Syrian government using sarin.

But
as I have extensively reported over the past few years, there is much
evidence that the so called Syrian freedom fighters are actually ISIS
and Al Qaeda fighters. And there is evidence that they have used
chemical weapons.

Other
problems with the claims of Assad using sarin: in the 2013 Ghouta
event, the sarin came from home-made rockets, which were favored by
insurgents.

Also,
according to Newsweek:

“In
the 2013 event, the White House memorandum seemed to rely heavily on
testimony from the Syrian white helmets who were filmed at the scene
having contact with supposed sarin-tainted casualties and not
suffering any ill effects.

“Carla
del Ponte was unable to fulfill her U.N. joint investigative
mechanism mandate in Syria and withdrew in protest over the United
States refusing to fully investigate allegations of chemical weapons
use by ‘rebels’ who are actually jihadis, allied with the
American effort to oust President Assad (including the use of sarin
by anti-Assad rebels).”

According
to the Times of London:
“Carla
del Ponte, head of the independent UN commission investigating
reports of chemical weapons use in Syria, told a Swiss-Italian
television station that UN investigators gleaned testimony from
victims of Syria’s civil war and medical staff which indicated that
rebel forces used sarin gas – a deadly nerve agent.

“‘Our
investigators have been in neighboring countries interviewing
victims, doctors and field hospitals and, according to their report
of last week which I have seen, there are strong, concrete suspicions
but not yet incontrovertible proof of the use of sarin gas, from the
way the victims were treated,’ del Ponte said in the interview,
translated by Reuters.

‘This
was use on the part of the opposition, the rebels, not by the
government authorities,’ she added.”

It
was the involvement of those jihadis posing as Syrian rebels that
made then-candidate Trump state emphatically that he wouldn’t
intervene and help oust Assad as Hillary Clinton wanted to do.

Candidate
Trump pushed back heavily against intervention. He warned that ISIS
was likely to take over Syria if Assad were ousted, just as they have
in Iraq and Libya.

And
yet the U.S. is only escalating fighting.

Four
Russian nationals, and perhaps dozens more, were killed in fighting
between pro-government forces in eastern Syria and members of the
United States-led coalition fighting the Islamic State, according to
Russian and Syrian officials—that according to the New York Times.

Russia
says that no members of the Russian armed forces were killed and that
any Russians fighting alongside the Syrians were mercenaries.

So
what you need to know is that candidate Trump was clear when he
pointed to the bush policy in Iraq and the Obama/Clinton policies in
Libya and Syria that have only strengthened the creation and spread
of ISIS and jihadism.

Candidate
Trump rightly pointed out that these policies had failed and that it
was insanity to keep pursuing those policies and expecting a
different outcome.

So
why is President Trump now embracing those insane policies that if
continued will undoubtedly leave another power vacuum in the Middle
East which will be filled with jihadis?
