Always a pleasure to talk to Ryan in the dead of the Asian night. A lot on Syria, Iraq, Kurdistan, The Caliph, MH17 - the talk was pre-beheading though but the song remains the same. -Pepe Escobar

Sy Hersh Reveals Potential Turkish Role in Syria Chemical Strike That Almost Sparked U.S. Bombing, April 7, 2014
Source: democracynow.org
Was Turkey behind last year's Syrian chemical weapons attack? That is the question raised in a new exposé by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Seymour Hersh on the intelligence debate over the deaths of hundreds of Syrians in Ghouta last year.
The United States, and much of the international community, blamed forces loyal to the Assad government, almost leading to a U.S. attack on Syria. But Hersh reveals the U.S. intelligence community feared Turkey was supplying sarin gas to Syrian rebels in the months before the attack took place -- information never made public as President Obama made the case for launching a strike. Hersh joins us to discuss his findings. -democracynow.org

RT | Syrian nun blames rebels for August sarin gas attack, December 9, 2013
Source: RT.com
Syria has been marred by civil war by over two years. In August, videos emerged which showed alleged use of chemical weapons on civilians outside Damascus. Critics of President Bashar al-Assad claimed the videos proved the administration was behind the sarin gas attack, and led US President Barack Obama to push for intervention in the country before backing away from the threats when Assad agreed to hand over all his chemical weapons stockpiles.
RT's Meghan Lopez speaks with Mother Agnes-Mariam de la Croix, founder of the James the Mutilated Monastery in Syria, who says that the videos show the chemical weapons were used by Syrian rebels, not the Assad administration.

Al Qaeda Rebels Supported by Uncle Sam: US, Allies to Blame for Chemical Attack in Syria, November 5, 2013
Source: PressTV.com
An analyst says the United States and its allies in the region are to blame for having helped militants in Syria to launch the deadly chemical attack on civilians in August. Michel Chossudovsky told Press TV in an interview on Friday that the US-led "military alliance" backed "the rebels in using chemical weapons" in Syria.
"The United States and its allies continue to support the al-Qaeda-affiliated rebels which are involved in the process of destruction of an entire country (Syria)," he stated.
Chossudovsky noted that "Israeli sponsored rebels" backed by "Qatar, Turkey, [and] Saudi Arabia" staged the chemical attack and "then blamed it on the [Syrian] government."
"And we know unequivocally that that event which used fake videos of children killed was there; it was a false flag and its objective was to blame the Syrian government when in fact those crimes were committed and ordered by the United States and its allies," said Chossudovsky.
He said the militants fighting against the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad "are the foot soldiers of the Western military alliance."
Chossudovsky also expressed regret that the international community has not taken any action to stop "a humanitarian crisis" which is unfolding in Syria.
"A country has been destroyed; there is an outbreak of polio, at least it is reported, and then the question is who is responsible for this hideous crime against the Syrian people and the entire nation. It is what I call the self-proclaimed international community," he said.
Chossudovsky described the international community as a "rogue conjunction of warmongering states... responsible for extensive war crimes against the people of Syria."

James Corbett on RT | Syria is NOT a civil war, it is a foreign intervention, October 3, 2013
Source: RT.com, corbettreport.com
Fresh clashes have erupted in Syria between secular rebels and Al CIAda-linked extremists. It's the latest spate of infighting among the anti-Assad camp, which has seen a rapid rise of radicals in their numbers. Western analysts put the total number of rebels at around a hundred thousand. They're split into as many as a thousand different groups. Ten thousand fighters are radical jihadists with links to Al CIAda. Up to 35 thousand others are hardline Islamists, who share many of Al CIAda's views. That leaves the more moderate rebels vastly outnumbered. Let's get reaction from independent news editor James Corbett.

False Flags And Crisis Actors In The Middle East: A Short Documentary, September 6, 2013

Original description, youtube:
The definition of 'False Flag' operation is as follows: "False flag operations are covert operations designed to deceive the public in such a way that the operations appear as though they are being carried out by other entities." The following is a short list of people who have voiced their suspicion that the recent chemical weapons attacks in Syria were staged by the opposition forces in order to gain even further US military action against the Syrian Government... [ ]
The list above could be expanded but the point is been made, the suspicion of false flag operations in Syria is mainstream opinion. Really, it seems that very few people outside of the dinosaur mainstream media and the Washington warmonger coalition have any trouble wrapping their minds around the obvious fact that it is the opposition combatants in Syria and their international backers who have total incentive to launch or stage a chemical weapons attack for the purpose blaming the Assad government. After all, as made perfectly clear in multiple 'red line' statements by President Obama, evidence of chemical weapons use is the one thing that would result in direct missile strikes against the Assad government. -Fenius Farsaidh youtube
