Expert shoots down false flag theories on chemical attack
Arutz Sheva ^ | 12/4/18 | Guy Cohen

Posted on 04/12/2018 5:35:24 PM PDT by Eleutheria5

Five days after the apparent chemical attack on the town of Douma in the Ghouta region near Damascus, Middle East expert Dr. Mordechai Kedar is still trying to figure out what could have caused Syrian dictator Bashar Assad to order such an attack, just when he was about to defeat the rebel resistance in Douma without the use of gas.

He is certain of one thing, however: The "false flag" theories being offered by various right wing media figures have no possible basis in reality.

.....

"But to take chemical weapons and kill hundreds of children from your own side, is way beyond even the satanic practices of the Middle east".

Iranian experiment?

We asked Dr. Kedar what, then, could have motivated Syria to carry a move that caused Trump to reverse the declaration he had made the previous week, about his intention to pull US forces out of Syria.

"That is the precise question that has been troubling me," said Kedar. "The question immediately presented itself: Why do this if Ghouta was about to fall into Assad's hands anyway?"

Kedar has a surprising theory: "I think that we are probably dealing with a new kind of gas, or some new development of chemical weaponry that was carried out in Iran, and the Iranians simply wanted to test it on humans, and they brought it over and gave it to Assad to use. They did it now, because they figured that in two weeks' time there will no longer be a reason to do it, because Ghouta will have been captured – and for that reason, Assad was probably coerced into doing this by the Iranians."

The expert immediately clarified that he is not basing his theory on information from sources.... .....

Pontification and conjecture. But worth noting, anyway.

This is an Israeli source saying the attack can’t be a false flag. Hmm....who benefits from a destabilized Syria?

He didn’t “shoot down” anything. He doesn’t think anybody would gas their own people therefore it didn’t happen. Well they’re “Assad’s people”, but he has no problem believing Assad would gas them. And they aren’t Turkey’s people, so wouldn’t they be more likely than Assad to do it?

As for a “new gas”, the media are all saying it’s chlorine, something anyone can make with stuff under their kitchen sink.

This is not proof at all. Attacking Syria at this point is very dangerous to America.

Other peoples opinions are not made with the best interest of America in mind.

Russia could also be testing its planes on the Syrians.

Jeez Louise...talk about assuming facts not in evidence. I do believe the globalists are starting to worry that this false flag operation is “losing its legs” and more and more people aren’t believing it.

The “Fog of War”.. we will probably never know...
whether gas was really used, and if it was used by which terrorist murder gang or CIA or Assad or British or the Borg or Romulans...

maybe President Trump might have the information resources to know who did what, but almost certainly we can’t find out sitting in mama’s bassment (smile smile)

I personally doubt this was a Syrian government operation, since the govt seemed to have no reason to do it, Syria was reportedly winning on that battle front already....

but I have no inside info who did what. sorry. so will sign off for now. all i know is my viewpoint that USA should eliminate the dangerous known Muslim murder gangs (USAF wonderful assignment!)... ISIS, Hezballah, Hamas, PLO-PA, etc. And I believe Russia is a natural ally in this...
or could be........ if we could only STFU dangerous big mouths like McShame, HilIARy, etc. But anyway that’s just my 3 cents worth (allowing for inflation, my opinion is still only worth two cents, ha!). I believe there can’t be any peace until these damned murder gangs are eliminated, and I further think our USAF could do most of the job without need of much in the way of ground forces. Have a very nice day.

From Assad’s past, I don’y think killing children would concern him very much....

Kedar is still trying to figure out what could have caused Syrian dictator Bashar Assad to order such an attack

A dispassionate scientist would ask the question: "Who ordered such an attack?"

This guy just asks, "Why did Assad do it?"

Conclusion first, evidence later?

Why didn’t the Iranians test it on homosexuals rather than throwing them off buildings?

Sorry JBW, have you seen video of hundreds of children killed in this attack? I suspect you haven’t.

I think I’ve seen some video of several children being “treated” with a garden hose. And to whom do those children belong? I guess that you’re unaware that the Islamist “rebels” routinely keep many Christian and Alawite sect families as hostages for occasions such as this.

” Middle East expert Dr. Mordechai Kedar...”

Not a chemical expert, just a talking head expert!

““I think that we are probably dealing with a new kind of gas, or some new development of chemical weaponry that was carried out in Iran”

I thought it was Chlorine gas. Canisters.

False flag theories are implausible, but Iranians strong arming Assad to test their experimental gas is totally legit. This guy’s schizophrenia has begun to manifest.

Exactly. Anything I saw on the tube could easily be dummied up. I did not see hundreds of dead children. I did not see *any* dead children.

The “decontaminaiton” with the garden hose might have been better than nothing, but was very unprofessional, IMHO.

Where was the protection for those doing the “decontamination”?

I hope and expect President Trump has much better information than the little drabs the media is feeding to us.

If anything, they wanted to test how effective the gas was in eliminating a large segment of the population without the damage done by bombs. Besides, chemical warheads on missiles would be an effective attack on Israeli cities.

The expert immediately clarified that he is not basing his theory on information from sources. “The hypothesis that this is a new Iranian weapon is my own wild conjecture,” he said. “But I think it could be part of what is happening, since the Iranians are currently engaged in an ethnic cleansing of Syria.”
