The report was based on rebel sources, who said the attack took place in the Jobar neighborhood of the capital. The rebel sources said they could not tell what kind of chemical weaponry had been used, but that it was a poison gas of some kind, and was causing injuries, including breathing difficulties.

couldn’t be that one of the rebels was cooking up sarin in their kitchen (a la business journal’s melodramatic pictorial today) and it blew... and they needed a scapegoat...?

Another “Kitchen Gas” attack to garner sympathy from the international media.

Doubt it. In fact Syrian forces would be wise to drop hot bacon fat from jets as that would be quite effective.

This even makes it more apparent to me that it was the rebels. It makes sense that the rebels would do it again when it looked like nobody was coming.

The biggest problem for Obama is that he lied about the cause of the Benghazi attack and can no longer be trusted. Obama has ruined the US credibility and it’s not coming back until we have a new leader.

“They came from Iraq (the missing WMDs). While Bush was trying to get the U.N. on board, trucks were lining up and moving out of Iraq and driving into Syria”

Even my libtard family members have finally admitted that. I want to say “I told you so” but I know I’ll get cut out their will. I figure I deserve that for listening to their liberal gobbledygook all these years.

Assad cant control Hezbollah and you cant blame him for being united with them when they Saudis send terrorists to Syria.

Pat Buchanan is anti-foreigner according to the liberals because he suggests there is a Saudi connection.
