Repeat a lie often enough, and people will take it to be true. The same lies are repeated each year about Assad, drummed up by the establishment of liars in government and mainstream media, in order to get justification to go to war and remake another part of the Middle -East.
The hope is that people will eventually believe it to be true, and public sentiment will accept the USA going to invade and murder more people overseas with American troops. They tried to do this with Iran for years with the "nuclear threat", as early as 2006. They can't get that false narrative and justification to stick on Iran, so Syria is the smaller fish they are going after.
This year it's the claim that Assad attacked his own people with a chemical attack, apparently chlorine gas as the symptoms are said to be "trouble breathing, foaming at the mouth, burning eyes and the emission of a chlorine-like odor.".
People are fed this disinformationon from the mainstream media selling it, and people usually buy into it. But how do they know that's what happened? How does the USA government or self-purporting "true-news" mainstream media know that's what actually happened? They don't know what happened. They are making up a story to sell to people.
Cui bono, who benefits from this story being put out? Does Assad? Why would Assad attack his own people? He was winning the war against the US-backed "rebels". The US said it had recently eliminated ISIS from the region. Everything was going well for Assad. Launching a chemical attack on his own people, killing children, is something that would only hurt him. So who benefits? The USA and the globalist cabal bent on reshaping the world in their own image by destabilizing Middle-Eastern countries and creating regime change and more chaos in the region.
Do people remember that Assad was accused of attacking his own people last year, at around the same time, but with Sarin gas? After the new Trump administration said it wasn't seeking to create regime change and remove Assad from power, there was an uproar in the pro-war political sphere against that policy change, and then like magic, Assad allegedly used Sarin gas on his own people. After which, the USA bombed a Syrian air base. The same things keep happening each year, with more bombing of Syria this year after a video was released again to manipulate Americans with propaganda.
Respected investigative journalist Seymour M. Hersh wrote about the 2017 chemical attack and how Trump reacted without solid intelligence about the situation on the ground in Syria. Hersh exposed how the the chemical attack was actually a Russian-supplied guide bomb that targeted a jihadist meeting on April 4th, 2017, and how the US was told about it beforehand:
The available intelligence made clear that the Syrians had targeted a jihadist meeting site on April 4 using a Russian-supplied guided bomb equipped with conventional explosives. Details of the attack, including information on its so-called high-value targets, had been provided by the Russians days in advance to American and allied military officials in Doha, whose mission is to coordinate all U.S., allied, Syrian and Russian Air Force operations in the region.
Some American military and intelligence officials were especially distressed by the president's determination to ignore the evidence. "None of this makes any sense," one officer told colleagues upon learning of the decision to bomb. "We KNOW that there was no chemical attack ... the Russians are furious. Claiming we have the real intel and know the truth ... I guess it didn't matter whether we elected Clinton or Trump.“
In February 2018, Secretary of Defense James Mattis said there was "no evidence" of the alleged Sarin chemical attack in April 2017.
Could it be that the vested war-mongers engineered chemical attacks in 2017, and now in 2018, in order to push for an officially declared war on Syria to topple Assad and create another chaotic region in the Middle-East?
Now we have many politicians and news pundits declaring Assad evil and calling for war, point blank, no skepticism of the attack or real investigation. The establishment expects people to have goldfish memory and be too dumb to think, and it might just work. The politicians are making their rounds on Twitter and the mainstream media is beating their war drum. I don't know what will happen in the future, but if people can see the so-called "true-news" mainstream media as the fakenews purveyors they are, this socially engineered narrative to go to war with Syria might be halted by public opinion alone.
