Why did Assad use chemical weapons?
 

Does it not strike you as odd that Assad used chemical weapons on just dozens of people? What possible advantage could he have to use chemicals instead of normal bombs for example? He is accused of this multiple times and I have no doubt that chemicals were used, who used them is another story.

Does this whole story not reek of false flag to you too? I am open to any reasonable explanations on why he would resort to using chemical weapons considering pooty got his back and he is not in any desperate situation whatsoever...

The trend continues.

So this is the new Putinbot conspiracy.. just like it was false flag that Russian supported rebels shot down the civilian airliner..

It's always everyone's fault but never Russia's... It's always a big conspiracy to blame poor little innocent Russia.. Russia = the dindos of Eastern Europe..

In this case Assad is just the extended arm of Russia so of course Assad couldn't do nothing bad because his best bros is Russia..

Using chemical weapons on this particular target at this particular time while achieving no military advantage does seem massively illogical.

:2 cents:

this video should explain everything...



:1orglaugh

haven't you been watching CNN? the russians are to blame for hilary losing. she said so herself!

dumb lib.

:1orglaugh

so what has Assad or even Russia gained ?

What has Trump himself gained ?

What has ISIS / Rebels gained ?


BTW, did you see any proof ?
Where is the investigation ?
Who is investigating ?
Why bypassing the UN ?


When it is the US killing women & children, it is first denial, then could be , then US will investigate ... for 3 months ....

Should Russian punish the US with missile strikes ?

Big diversion ... and it worked on many levels ....

The chemical brothers: Putin and Assad | Russia | Al Jazeera

Because Assad has shit-for-brains?

This whole air-strike was a dog and pony show for the for US public consumption and to scare the fuck out of President Xi of China (and Fat boy in NK) -- that is so fucking obvious.

Nothing has changes the game is the same -- ignore that man behind the curtain ...

This was the main question asked about Assad in 2013 when he used Sarin on his own people. Watch the 60 min video here (graphic)

It's definitely been proven that the attacks originated from Assad's men. There's not a real good answer to "why" and the original 2013 attacks occurred while there were UN chemical weapons inspectors were in Syria. I realize ISIS needs to be eradicated, but I don't believe backing Assad is the answer after all the atrocities he's committed.

Evil Russian face near Syrian air-base must enought for any proof:winkwink:

No one don't know truth. All the others it is speculation.

...And the denial continues and the conspiracies are created to avoid the harsh reality that Putin is supporting someone who's more of a ruthless dictator than himself to advance his interest in the Middle East.

Anyone wanting to position themselves in the ME used to have to deal with such dictators until they started getting killed off, one by one. As far as I know Assad is the last living dictator with any real power though Erdogan seems to be a rising dictator.

Putin is holding up Assad because without Assad Putin loses influence in the ME.

Putin is on the wrong side of history and Russians need to get him and his henchmen out of power :2 cents:

Yes but why the chemicals and not just a bomb?...Why invoke the wrath of the world for such insignificant targets?...It makes no sense at all...

This is a very good question really. Assad surely didn't need to. He has plenty of conventional weapons. He was loosing the war until Russia stepped in to help. Now he has nearly unlimited ammo and the means to deliver them.

Assad will end up like Qaddafi. Putin will be 'retired'. Trump will be writing a book about how great he thinks he was. Give it some time ...

Indeed. But not to crockett, his logic is that if Assad is supported by Putin that automatically is logical and do not dare to question anything like that.

Look at this lady "grandstanding" by holding up pictures of dead children.

She didn't hold up any pictures of the nine dead people murdered at church in the state she governed though.

Hmmmmmmm?

No one not care about Assad. We need to keep Syria as a state.

funny the confusion by dumb libs why he used gas...meanwhile he uses barrel bombs & rocket attacks & helicopter attacks on civilians but none of that is illogical...just the gas.

dumb libs.

:1orglaugh

i tell you what: i wouldnot wonder if we all find out in 20 years that assad NEVER had chemical weapons.

have you ever heard about the submasrine russian k-129 ?

if not you should watch this video

these are the political games trump can not play.
he is such an idot that he reacts before he knows the truth. and this is what makes US damned weak.

Yes but why gas you fail to explain...Why not just bombs and there would be no such outrage...

Why does the same guy drop barrels filled with TNT instead of bombs? Why? Who the fuck knows, perhaps because it was there and they had it on hand... Perhaps they are using these drops as tests to see if they can get away with it.. Who the fuck knows what goes on in the minds of crazy people like Assad..

Why does ISIS cut people's heads off? Why to scare others, perhaps this was Assad's thoughts he wanted to scare the rebels into not fighting...

Why do Russians always lie about their involvement in Ukraine or when they bomb civilians? At least the US owns up to its mistakes and fuck ups..

True. The Assad family is the only political party that has ruled Syria for 50+yrs?
So there is no real way to do this with elections.
Who else is running?
3 way race Assad, ISIS or the Rebels?
Sunnis or Shiites ?

My GOD!

Read this quote by the Nikki Haley :

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charle...hurch_shooting :

:helpme:helpme:helpme

as the well known ignorant you are you will also find an explaination for the fact that this is already happening since years.

when obama wanted to act and was stopped by the reps in the congress trump twittert for THE SAME THING:

this same trump now does exactly what he has complained from obama.

and not even that - he does not even ASK the congress or waiting for the mandate of the united natirons what is OBLIGATE as soon as a country attackes another one when it is NOT in selfdefense.

just a few weeks ago trump said he want to keep assad in his chair and all of you "flags in the wind" found that a geat idea - now he changed his mind and you find it great again.

you know how this is called?

WELL DONE ANIMAL DRESSAGE !!!!!

you're a good dog who likes to bring the frisby to his owner !

it could have been a "test" to see how the new administration would react?

Syria nerve agent attack: why it made sense to Assad

You didn't learn in 2013 why Assad used sarin gas to kill then? Same reason now.

Also don't forget, from the article above: "Since the 2013 sarin attack on a Damascus suburb, there have been many small scale government attacks using chlorine gas which have brought almost no repercussions."

Assad had to use sarin gas for this stronghold because it is heavier than air, it rolls down stairs and through cracks in doors reaching rebels hunkered underground where they are difficult to take out without extensive Assad casualties. Unfortunately the rebels keep their children underground as well to keep them safe. I think I remember years ago Assad referring to them as rats or something.

The war has been 6 years Assad's troops are worn down and the strongholds aren't giving in. Trump said 2 weeks ago that Putin will work with Assad in Syria to kill ISIS and America doesn't need to be involved, Assad saw this as permission to do as he pleased without American intervention.

Trump is an idiot & Putin is making a mistake being associated as an Assad allie, this has trashed Putin's credibility worldwide and pissed off the Chechens as now 1/3 of all Syrian rebels are those muslim extremist factions coming into Syria to fight. So now Chechens will be terrorist bombing Russia at home until Putin changes.

Trump told Russia about the missile strikes before he told Congress.

Let that sink in.


The US warned the Russians ahead of Syria missile strikes

dumb lib obama was PRESIDENT he was supposed to LEAD not ask congress what to do when assad crossed the red line. Obama fumbled the ball, what kind of leader asks congress what to do...pussy president led to years more massacres, & the rise of ISIS.

as far as that other bullshit you just wrote, trump changed his mind, simple as that. & you're the dumb lib whose tail is wagged by the liberal media dog. go back to reading huffpost & pretend you are informed.

dumb lib.

:1orglaugh

why should i discuss with you any further?
you do not even know the laws of you own country and the worldwide regulations what YOUR COUNTRY have signed, you idiot.

March 19, 2013:
More than two dozen people, including several Syrian soldiers, die in a sarin gas attack in northern Syria. The government and rebels each blame the other for the incident.

Aug. 21, 2013:
Hundreds of men, women and children are gassed with the banned nerve agent sarin in an attack near Damascus. The U.S. blames the Syrian government.


April 2015
Syrian groups in Idlib province say barrel bombs containing chlorine were dropped.

August and September 2016
Hospital officials and activists in Aleppo say chlorine gas is used in attacks.

Feb. 28., 2017:
Russia and China veto a U.N. Security Council resolution authorizing sanctions against Syria for chemical weapons use.

April 4, 2017:
An attack on a rebel-held city in northern Syria kills at least 86 people, 27 of them children. Autopsies on three Syrians who died after being brought to Turkey for treatment suggest sarin was used in the attack.

Exactly what he wants you and others to think.

has Assad agreed he ordered the attack?

Maybe it was a test, maybe more to come?

Maybe the fag Assad did it for shits and giggles?
His friend the Syrian Foreign Minister obviously finds the situation of gassed kids funny. I bet these two homos are butt fucking each other to videos of the attack.

English translated version:

Agent Orange Trump doesn't care about the truth nor he cares about death children in Syria nor who killed them. He wanted to bomb the place and this was just a way to sell a bombing. That's all...

The "reporters" on CNN have started building this same narrative.

I've heard EVERY one of them start their news stories over the last 24 hours by saying "Why did Assad suddenly decide to use chemical weapons NOW?"

And then they don't even answer the question they ask at the beginning. It's like they are trying to set the table for new anti-Trump allegations...my guess is they will say the whole thing was ginned up by Trump and Putin to get Trump off the hook with "Russian collusion" stories.

I think this will be the latest "anti-Trump" narrative that is going to be pushed by the Democrat Party. CNN, as usual, is the point man for anti-Trump propaganda.

That's a lie.

Its also not out of the blue, he's been continuously using chemical weapons in hard to overtake strongholds with underground bunkers that can't be bombed.

There are reports everywhere explaining why Assad used chemical weapons for the 8th or 9th time.

even more funny is that he called THE SAME people til afew days ago terrorist and illegal immigrants - he called Germany idot because they took masses of this refugees because nobody else wanted them.
NOW they are poor people and HE have to help them.

is this fucker mad in his head or is it just because his followers believe anyway everything and are blind for his incapability?

Every normal person in this world who has only a little bit of honor should be ashamed of himself if he does every day the opposite of the day before.

How can a guy run a country if he change his mind every five minutes?
