Washington’s Syrian Chemical Attack Propaganda, Destroyed With a Few Basic Questions

As if on cue, the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons – putative watchdog of world government use of the noxious agents in its very name – announced Thursday sarin gas, or a sarin-like substance, had indeed caused the deaths of nearly 100 people in a supposed chemical ‘attack’ in Khan Sheikhoun in Syria in early April, which the U. S. and Western allies insist had been carried out against innocent civilians at the behest of the Assad regime.
Except, gaping holes and unavoidable discrepancies paint the report. In fact, the entire incident constitutes a monstrous propaganda campaign to enjoin support for ousting President Bashar al-Assad – an objective dear to the United States – no matter the repercussions.
According to the OPCW Fact-Finding Mission – which refused to assign responsibility for the attack until further collaboration with the United Nations – sarin or a sarin-like substance killed and injured scores of civilians in an ‘alleged’ attack on April 4 in the Idlib Province town.
Superficially, this confirms an account by the Trump administration, which used the ‘attack’ to justify launching 59 retaliatory Tomahawk missiles into the sovereign nation – incidentally, also killing and injuring scores of innocents – in the first act of direct military aggression by the U. S. since a coalition of Western-backed forces entered the fray.
