    Assad was surprised by the #Palmyra & #Hama offensives. He reacted in both cases with #Sarin gas attacks against civilians.

    Assad used #Sarin against civilians 4 days after #ISIS launched the #Palmyra offensive & 2 weeks after rebels launched the #Hama offensive.

    Assad used #Sarin three times:
    - August 2013 in Eastern #Ghouta
    - December 2016 in Eastern #Hama
    - April 2017 in Southern #Idlib

    Hama: #Assad killed around 90 civilians & wounded 500 with toxic gas in Eastern #Hama in December 2016. Unnoticed!

    US calls on Iran & Russia to stop their buddy Assad?! And I thought Trump was against outsourcing American jobs!

    Perfect example of just how US MSM actually falls for Russian disinformation operations.....

    Immediatedly after the chemical weapons strike o civilians Russia stated..."hey it was not Assad nor us because we were not flying in the area"...THEN the next version was ...."it was those pesky rebels who had a chemical weapons factory hidden in an ammo dump we targeted"....

    THUS proving their first version being basically a lie.....

    A number of US MSM to include say local German media started carrying the Russian second version as if it were the truth..until a world renown chemical weapons expert flatly stated..."Russians are lying....Sarin is destroyed in explosions" THUS disproving the Russian version number two....

    THEN US MSM pulled this latest Russia version from their programing....WHY they did not fact check is amazing to me.....

    Also #Russia story killed on #Today Prog by chemicals expert who said #Sarin is destroyed when blown up on the ground

    From the Russians came this comment....

    Rebels in #Idlib are sitting on a giant stockpile of #Sarin.
    No idea where they have it from & why they never used it,but they do.

    BUT WAIT.....UN stated the attack was an airborne attack not a ground attack...

    This comes from the same ruthless regime that did "not at all" bomb #Aleppo & will never admit,it bombed hospitals after the #IdlibGasAttack

    Rebels now ensuring news media gets in nerve attack areas....

    Ahrar al-Sham has made formal arrangements with #Turkey (TSK & MIT) to guarantee Western journalists cross-border access into #Idlib

    Ahrar al-Sham is the principal opposition force in Khan Sheikhoun - which was hit by a chemical (suspected nerve agent) attack today

    Ahrar al-Sham claims that it will provide personal security to individual Western journalists & 24/7 security escort service to crews

    Rebels are on the verge of losing #Helfaya to pro-#Assad Shiite militias, which are attacking the town fiercely.
    #Hama #Syria

    I was told yday that the regime and its allies DESTROYED the medical infrastructure, relief organizations left behind in eastern #Aleppo.

    Doctors believe this was done to manifest the long-term depopulation of eastern Aleppo.
    A planned & organized ethnic cleansing of the city.

    The look of this father carrying his two killed by gas children after the chemical attack in Syria encompasses all of the injustice of this world

    There was no US leadership under Obama for Syria and it will be even worse under Trump....as Trump wants to support both Putin and Assad....

    “The [chemical] attack came 5 days after the Trump administration signaled that the Syrian dictator would not be held accountable..”

    Russia defends Assad, claims Syria bombed a terrorist workshop. The impact site is a road. @CITeam_en analysis:
    https://www.facebook.com/notes/confl...7021830117463#

    Syrian rebels were responsible for chemical slaughter, according to Russia, just like Ukrainians were responsible for shooting down #MH17.
