What would it take to persuade you that chemical weapons attacks were made? What would it take to persuade you that the government of Syria wanted/controlled/launched those attacks?
There seems to be lots of sources that think these things are true. The top search result for `George Monbiot chemical weapons syria` yields [0] in which the third paragraph starts : "There is nothing surprising about this. The Syrian government has a long history of chemical weapons use, and the OPCW’s conclusions concur with a wealth of witness testimony. But a major propaganda effort has sought to discredit such testimony, and characterise the atrocity as a “false-flag attack”."

- jstewartmobile 7y agoIt would take a first-hand report from an entity that I trust. MSM deserves zero trust. For the entire postwar period, we move from one false flag intervention to another--Korea, Iran in '53, Vietnam, Cambodia, Guatemala, Honduras, Haiti, Iraq & Afghanistan, Libya--all mortal threats to the United States of America. Tell me, in which one of these instances did the media tell us to hold our horses at the outset, rather than the aftermath?
