Some BIG Problems With White House Report
by Brian Preston for viewzone (© Aug. 2013)
Despite being rejected by Great Britain, President Obama continues to press the American public to support a strike on the Syrian regime in the belief that the Sarin gas use, killing as many as 1000 men, women and children in an early August 21st morning attack, was the work of the Assad's military, which should be punished. Obama states that he is certain of this because: 1) The Syrian military is the only entity that possesses such chemical weapons and 2) The Syrian military is the only entity to have the capability to deliver these weapons by missile. The third bit of "proof" comes by way of Israel's Mossad (Motto: "By way of deception thou shall do war") who claim they conveniently intercepted communications from the Assad regime that mentioned preparations before the Sarin attack (see report here. The Obama administration has stated repeatedly that the rebels do not have this technology and therefore could not have done this. So, it must have been the Assad army. But there is a problem with this assessment -- it's patently wrong! Dr. Edward Ward, in his blog posted a link to a BBC story that clearly illustrates how easy it is for virtually anyone to obtain the ingredients to make the deadly Sarin gas. I will post the story below for you to read, but first, this YouTube video clearly shows the "rebels" fighting against the Assad regime had (and have) the technology to deliver the chemical agents by missile. As you will see, it is not difficult at all. The launcher is relatively low-tech.
[It is likely that this video will be deleted (censored) soon. Please let me know as I have a copy and will repost it on the viewzone site - thanks] So, the question is... how difficult is it to obtain Sarin gas? Read on...
According to the BBC, sarin gas creation kits could be ordered off the internet, and still can be, although maybe not in kit form. It is essentially the mixture of 5 chemicals by one of the methods of manufacture. Sarin is not something that can only be made by governments. It's delivery system would be the key to 'who' perpetrated the crime. The delivery system shown in this video (above) is more than adequate for the job.

Institute for Public Accuracy (IPA) Sees Evidence Rebels Used Sarin The BBC reports in "UN's Del Ponte [right] Says Evidence Syria Rebels 'Used Sarin'", that Carla Del Ponte, a member of the Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Syria, stated that the investigation has so far found that nerve gas appeared to be "used by the opponents, by the rebels. And we have no indication at all that the government, the authority of the Syrian government, had used chemical weapons." See full BBC report, including video of Del Ponte. FRANCIS BOYLE, (fboyle at illinois.edu) is a professor at the University of Illinois College of Law and most recently author of Destroying Libya and World Order. He said today: "I have worked personally with Carla Del Ponte. She has an enormous amount of credibility. By the logic of Obama's 'red line' should he now enter the U.S. on the side of the Syria government?"
"In fact, as is true for almost every previous invocation of the doctrine of so-called 'humanitarian intervention' in modern history going all the way back to the mid-19th century, the application of the Responsibility to Protect Doctrine to Syria is based upon outright lies, propaganda and half-truths -- as with all the baseless accusations over the last several weeks regarding the Syrian government using nerve gas and calls for U.S. military intervention. The Israeli strikes on Syria are obvious violations of international law. None of this of course excuses any violation of international human rights law that might have been committed by the Assad government." MATTHEW LEE, (innercitypress.com, @innercitypress) covers the UN for Inner City Press and just wrote the piece "Syria Rebels Used Sarin, UN's Del Ponte Strongly Suspects." REESE ERLICH, (rerlich at pacbell.net) -- Available for a limited number of interviews with major media, Erlich is a freelance foreign correspondent who reports for GlobalPost and CBC, among others. He said today: "The rebels might have used sarin in order to justify U.S. intervention. ... The current crisis has nothing to do with chemical weapons and everything to do with breaking the stalemate. As with Libya, sectors of the Obama administration, Israel and others, are ginning up a crisis to justify military intervention. Why would Assad use chemical weapons now and give the US an excuses to attack? Israel's attacks, using the excuse of destroying Hezbollah missiles, are actually aimed at putting pressure on Obama to attack Syria." [source] Assad guilty of other atrocities Because the ad people do not permit showing anything that might upset you, as they say, our content should be fit for a "family watching together", we cannot embed the BBC video of a Syrian military jet that bombed a schoolyard full of children. It might make you sad or, as they say, "sensitive". But here is the link. Be warned, it will drive the point home.
Well... the video should make you feel "sensitive" and understand that there is no good side to this horrific war that has killed over 100,000 innocent people and caused over a million people to evacuate their homes, often losing everything! Each side has acted like animals (apologies to all the other animals). What could be so politically or economically important, so life threatening, so urgent that people will do this to each other? We could also show you the viral video of a rebel (many belonging to the same al Qeada that Osama bin Laden once ruled) cutting and eating the flesh of a killed Syrian Army soldier... Yes, feel very very "sensitive" and ask yourself, "Why?" What does it all mean? The Sarin gas attack is reported to have killed as many as 1,400+ people, many of whom were civilians. While there is debate about who did it, the condemnation of this type of murder is well deserved. Killing people in their sleep, especially innocent civilians, is something no nation should tolerate. We all agree on this. The remedy, however, is not to cause more killing of civilians by some barrage of hundreds of cruise missiles that will inflict yet more "collateral damage." Russia and China are absolutely correct in condemning this barbaric type of solution. Britain showed their moral superiority by stopping their participation in this kind of insanity. They have won much global respect for their courage. Since war in Iraq over non-existent weapons of mass destruction, most people are rightfully skeptical of anything that attempts to justify another military intervention. They are skeptical not only of the "evidence" (remembering Colin Powell's bogus UN presentation back in 2003) but of the motives. This is especially true when giving any credence to alleged intercepted communication from Israel (Mossad). Most people realize this and can see the same active propaganda in the current crisis. The entire middle-East will now see any intervention as an "American war" and will retaliate accordingly, targeting America's closest ally, Israel. If this happens the world may see yet another decade of death, suffering and demise. The 21st Century may be known as the Century of War. And when history is written about this era (including 9-11), will it rightly attribute the root cause of this mayhem to the continuous mis-treatment of the people of Palestine, which has incensed and polarized the entire mid-East? As we know, history is written by the victors. JUST IN -- The Back Story! Saudi Prince of Darkness In a scene even more vile than The Godfather, Saudi Prince Bandar, in a face-to-face meeting with Vladimir Putin in July (2013), secretly recorded and leaked to a British newspaper, tried to emulate the Temptation of Christ by offering Russia a partnership in the OPEC oil cartel. "All this I will give you, if you will let the Assad regime fall." But Mr. Putin had more decency and morality than the Saudi. Even more than the bankers and investors salivating to use Syria for their natural gas pipeline from Qatar. Even more than the Zionists bent on creating a zone of conflict around their chosen land while moving LNG (liquid natural gas) from the huge off-shore Laviathan gas pocket, disregarding ownership claims by Lebanon, to the lucrative European market over Assad's objections. Frustrated by his integrity and motivated by psychopathic greed and money lust, the threats were next. "I can give you a guarantee to protect the Winter Olympics next year. The Chechen groups that threaten the security of the games are controlled by us." (hint-hint) Speaking of the Chechen rebels, a kin to al Qaeda, the Saudi Prince added,"These groups do not scare us. We use them in the face of the Syrian regime but they will have no role in Syria's political future." Vladimir Putin, the 60 year old leader of Russia, was unmoved. "Our stance on Assad will never change. We believe that the Syrian regime is the best speaker on behalf of the Syrian people, and not those liver eaters."

About Sarin Gas
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Sarin, or GB, is an organophosphorus compound with the formula [(CH3)2CHO]CH3P(O)F. It is a colorless, odorless liquid,[4] used as a chemical weapon owing to its extreme potency as a nerve agent. It has been classified as a weapon of mass destruction in UN Resolution 687. Production and stockpiling of sarin was outlawed by the Chemical Weapons Convention of 1993 where it is classified as a Schedule 1 substance. Biological Effects of Sarin
Like other nerve agents, sarin attacks the nervous system. It stops nerves in muscles from switching off. Death will usually occur as a result of asphyxia due to the inability of the muscles involved in breathing to function. Specifically, sarin is a potent inhibitor of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, a protein that degrades the neurotransmitter acetylcholine after it is released into the synaptic cleft. In vertebrates, acetylcholine is the neurotransmitter used at the neuromuscular junction, where signals are transmitted between neurons from the central nervous systems to muscle fibres. Normally, acetylcholine is released from the neuron to stimulate the muscle, after which it is degraded by acetylcholinesterase, allowing the muscle to relax. A build-up of acetylcholine in the synaptic cleft, due to the inhibition of cholinesterase, means the neurotransmitter continues to act on the muscle fibre, so that any nerve impulses are effectively continually transmitted. Sarin acts on cholinesterase by forming a covalent bond with the particular serine residue at the active site. Fluoride is the leaving group, and the resulting phosphoester is robust and biologically inactive. Its mechanism of action resembles that of some commonly used insecticides, such as malathion. In terms of biological activity, it resembles carbamate insecticides such as Sevin and medicines pyridostigmine, neostigmine, and physostigmine. Effects and Treatment Sarin has a high volatility (ease with which a liquid can turn into a gas) relative to similar nerve agents, therefore inhalation can be very dangerous and even vapor concentrations may immediately penetrate the skin. A person’s clothing can release sarin for about 30 minutes after it has come in contact with sarin gas, which can lead to exposure of other people. People who absorb a non-lethal dose but do not receive immediate appropriate medical treatment may suffer permanent neurological damage. Even at very low concentrations, sarin can be fatal. Death may follow in one minute after direct ingestion of a lethal dose unless antidotes, typically atropine and pralidoxime, are quickly administered. Atropine, an antagonist to muscarinic acetylcholine receptors, is given to treat the physiological symptoms of poisoning. Since muscular response to acetylcholine is mediated through nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, atropine does not counteract the muscular symptoms. Pralidoxime can regenerate cholinesterases if administered within approximately five hours. Biperiden, a synthetic acetylcholine antagonist, has been suggested as an alternative to atropine due to its better blood-brain barrier penetration and higher efficacy. Sarin is estimated to be over 500 times more toxic than cyanide. Sarin was discovered in 1938 in Wuppertal-Elberfeld in Germany by scientists at IG Farben attempting to create stronger pesticides; it is the most toxic of the four G-Series nerve agents made by Germany.
Fake Photo From Iraq War Used by Sec. Kerry To Justify Syrian Attack
[click for larger photo] Secretary of State John Kerry opened his speech Friday, August 30, 2013, by describing the horrors victims of the chemical weapon attack suffered, including twitching, spasms and difficulty breathing. Attempting to drive the point home, Kerry referenced a photograph used by the BBC illustrating a child jumping over hundreds of dead bodies covered in white shrouds. The photo was meant to depict victims who allegedly succumbed to the effects of chemical weapons via Assad's regime. However, it was later exposed the photograph used had been taken in 2003 in Iraq. It was not related to Syrian deaths whatsoever and was later retracted. A Video We Cannot Show You Because advertisers don't want to upset you, we have to work under a form of censorship. It's kind of hard to show what's happening in a war with happy, smiley faces... so here is the link to an important video you should watch: http://youtu.be/BLAMVtLq2V0 [We're not allowed to make the link active.] Some Advice... Don't trust the main stream media. They buy their news "packages" from public relations firms who receive funding from the likes of AIPAC [*] and other politically motivated organizations. That is... when they are not just making it up (see below).
Use CNN to see the propaganda being fed to the unaware and uninformed American public. CNN has been taken over by Jeff Zucker, who vowed to boost revenue. His bio says he is "passionate about journalism" but his passion for cash is most apparent. CNN's "news" is now just "filler" to make you look at their ads. The news stories on CNN will never make you "sad" or "sensitive" for fear that you will stop buying crap you don't need. Thus, while the world is going to hell, they show cute dog stories and Miley Cyrus abusing the (Baphomet) "freedoms" that American soldiers died to protect. Use a solid news source like reuters.com to get nearer to what is really happening. They have almost no ads and are beholding to real journalism = truth. The above (un)linked video was published first on Mar 20, 2013. This heinous war crime by western supported terrorists in Syria cannot be denied. Western media is still "unsure" who gassed the civilians in Khan el Asal Aleppo on March 19th 2013. The Russian government has confirmed that is was terrorists and not the Syrian government that used chemical warfare in Khan el Asal. The conversation about using the gas is featured at the end of the YouTube clip above. The video also contains footage of western-backed FSA rebels announcing their intention to carry out chemical weapons attacks while surrounded with bottles of nitric acid and other substances. In addition, the clip features victims of a chemical weapons incident in Aleppo, which the White House is reluctant to acknowledge even happened, blaming Syrian rebels for the attack. The recording of the phone conversation purports to be between two FSA militants, one inside Syria and one outside of the country. Abu Hassan, the militant inside Syria, asks the person on the other end of the line to transmit a message to Sheikh Suleiman, a rebel-seized army base in Aleppo, asking for "two chemical bombs ... phosphoric" in order to "finish this whole thing."
"I want them to be effective. The radius of the strike, or reach of the gases, has to be 1km." Now you know. What to do If you are "sensitive" to these events, please make an effort to let your views be known by writing or e-mailing your local Senator. Their websites can be found on google or BING. On September 9th they will be asked to vote up or down on Obama's attack plans for Syria. Use your democratic freedom to change the world... or lose both.
ABOVE: What Israel, Qatar & Saudi Arabia Want. Trillion$ to be made in the European gas market. And Assad is the only obstacle. Previously, when looking at the real underlying national interests responsible for the deteriorating situation in Syria, which eventually may and/or will devolve into all out war with hundreds of thousands killed, it was very clear that it was always and only about the gas, or gas pipelines to be exact, and specifically those involving the tiny but uber-wealthy state of Qatar and Israel, who have laid claims (illegally) to the huge gas pocket discovered off the coast of Lebanon. It's enormous and called the Laviathan Gas Field. . Needless to say, the official spin on events has no mention of this ulterior motive, and the popular, propaganda machine, especially from those powers supporting the Syrian "rebels" which include Israel, the US and the Saudi Arabia tries to generate public and democratic support by portraying Assad as a brutal, chemical weapons-using dictator, in line with the tried and true script used once already in Iraq.
