You can mock that programme all you want and if you want to continue believing everything popular media feeds you... rock right on.

An Iranian reporter in Iraq is good enough for me. Why would a Shiite Muslim reporter lie about what the Shiites are doing to the Sunni's?

![]() I agree with the sentiment overall though, I wouldn't trust any documentary any more than I'd trust the mainstream rags. Well, maybe a little more, but not much. At the end of the day you're still looking at the way someone else has pieced together an elaborate jigsaw, without having a chance to look at the pieces for yourself. |

This is an interesting source from Syrian Arab News
http://sana.sy/en/?p=103798 What its suggesting is, there needs to be a full investigation for this chemical attack and that nobody, including the U.S can point a finger at anyone until that investigation is done. It also suggests that the U.S is not destroying ISIS but using ISIS as an excuse to go in and target the Assad regime. It also states that Khan Sheikhoun is under the control of Jabhat al-Nusra terror organization, but there are western attempts to hide that, adding that it’s not a coincidence that reports about terrorists stockpiling chemical weapons and using them against civilians are being ignored. In doing so the U.S are in violation of the UN Charter.

This is proof Trump needs to be impeached, all his other misdeeds are nothing compared to this act of stupidity

And nobody anywhere was surprised...
It has become something of a cliche for Whitehall to reassure British citizens that it has “one of the most robust arms export controls in the world”. It is the stock response civil servants, press officers and ministers turn to when asked about arms sales to human rights abusers or conflict zones, and was used in 2013 when confronted about the decision to grant licences for the sale of chemicals to Syria that could have been used in the production of nerve gas. Thankfully the licences were revoked, after a Europe-wide embargo. However, there is little doubt that UK-produced chemicals sold to Syria in the past have been used in the production of weapons. https://www.theguardian.com/commenti...-uk-arms-trade

Nato should be concentrating on ISIS along with Russia.However brutal Assad is he should not be the target now.That time has passed now.Regime change should now be off the table.
Wiping ISIS out should be the mission for now. Hopefully Trump is not going for regime change and this was a one off to show that what he says has teeth unlike Obama who said chemical weapons were a "red line" and did nothing and in the process made the US look weak. Maybe this was a warning to China that he means business and his real target is North Korea. Or maybe,The scariest option and the one that is supposed to be the truth.He was emotionally overcome by the images of gassed children and reacted to what he saw.That is the most frightening option because it means that he is very easy to manipulate into emotive actions and shows a lack of control. These terrorist groups have been known to use chemical weapons and have stockpiles. They can use them whenever they want to call in a US airstrike if the official line and most terrifying version of events is true. However none of this says very much for Trumps supposed anti interventionist ideology. Last edited by Northern Monkey; 11-04-2017 at 10:46 PM. |

If impeachment is justified, which it isn't, the powers that be will do so, but for Trump haters to use this, or anything else, to get him out is pathetic.

I'd like to see the West pull out of the Middle East all together. Leave them to it. And as the West removes their arms and troops, also remove the humanitarian aid because that seems to be forgotten while the West is being generally slagged off.
Pull our people out of the Middle East - it certainly would make my job easier and I'd do much less travelling - and revisit it after it's become a large, smoking crater. Last edited by Livia; 12-04-2017 at 09:08 AM. |

I have mixed feelings, but generally inclined to agree. - why should our brave men and women be sacrificed for what is essentially a lost cause. Nothing ever changes. |

a classical US-executed false flag
a Syrian strike on a location which happened to be storing some kind of gas, possibly chlorine, but most definitely not sarin. This option requires you to believe in coincidences. I don’t. Unless, the US fed bad intelligence to the Syrians and got them to bomb a location where the US knew that toxic gas was stored. |
