The evidence from the Obama administration
It is very important to remember that up until this point we have not seen any independent verification of the chemical attacks. We have seen horrible, gruesome and heart-wrenching videos showing lifeless children but there has been no independent verification of these attacks nor any credible evidence to prove that the Assad government was responsible for these attacks. It is very hard to discern truth from fiction when it comes to intelligence PSYOP campaigns. It is important to note that this is the THIRD accusation that Assad has used chemical weapons despite actually being in the strongest position currently; the first two were proved to be false. So far the evidence presented by the Obama administration is trust us. Up until the UK government voted not to attack Syria the Obama administration seemed intent to attack Syria as quickly as possible before any potential UN report could be presented.
And remember the American government is currently supporting indirectly or directly the Al Qaeda rebels who literally rip out the heart of Syrian soldiers and eat them. You can see that graphic video HERE. Thats OUR side.
The evidence against the Obama administrations claims
There were some actual journalists on the ground however to talk to witnesses and get first hand accounts of what actually happened. Dale Gavlak is a veteran journalist who has written for the Associated Press for a long time; he assisted with a story that eyewitness accounts actually claimed the Saudis supplied the rebel forces with chemical weapons and they mishandled them. Mintpress News had that exclusive story HERE:
However, from numerous interviews with doctors, Ghouta residents, rebel fighters and their families, a different picture emerges. Many believe that certain rebels received chemical weapons via the Saudi intelligence chief, Prince Bandar bin Sultan, and were responsible for carrying out the dealing gas attack.
My son came to me two weeks ago asking what I thought the weapons were that he had been asked to carry, said Abu Abdel-Moneim, the father of a rebel fighting to unseat Assad, who lives in Ghouta.
Abdel-Moneim said his son and 12 other rebels were killed inside of a tunnel used to store weapons provided by a Saudi militant, known as Abu Ayesha, who was leading a fighting battalion. The father described the weapons as having a tube-like structure while others were like a huge gas bottle.
Ghouta townspeople said the rebels were using mosques and private houses to sleep while storing their weapons in tunnels.
Abdel-Moneim said his son and the others died during the chemical weapons attack. That same day, the militant group Jabhat al-Nusra, which is linked to al-Qaida, announced that it would similarly attack civilians in the Assad regimes heartland of Latakia on Syrias western coast, in purported retaliation.
They didnt tell us what these arms were or how to use them, complained a female fighter named K. We didnt know they were chemical weapons. We never imagined they were chemical weapons.
As I wrote earlier this is the third claim that the Assad government used chemical weapons; however we already know the first two claims were lies. The first attempt happened in January of 2013 and leaked documents showed an attempt to frame Assad for using chemical weapons. Yahoo News writes HERE:
The Obama administration gave green signal to a chemical weapons attack plan in Syria that could be blamed on President Bashar al Assads regime and in turn, spur international military action in the devastated country, leaked documents have shown.
A new report, that contains an email exchange between two senior officials at British-based contractor Britam Defence, showed a scheme approved by Washington.
As per the scheme Qatar would fund rebel forces in Syria to use chemical weapons, the Daily Mail reports.
Updated: In fact when the 2nd chemical weapons attack occurred the U.S. government said that the Assad government used sarin gas on the Syrian people with varying degrees of confidence. In fact UN human rights investigators found that it was the rebels and not the Assad government that used chemical weapons. Reuters has that story HERE:
The United Nations independent commission of inquiry on Syria has not yet seen evidence of government forces having used chemical weapons, which are banned under international law, said commission member Carla Del Ponte.
Our investigators have been in neighboring countries interviewing victims, doctors and field hospitals and, according to their report of last week which I have seen, there are strong, concrete suspicions but not yet incontrovertible proof of the use of sarin gas, from the way the victims were treated, Del Ponte said in an interview with Swiss-Italian television.
This was use on the part of the opposition, the rebels, not by the government authorities, she added, speaking in Italian.
Background Context
We have to acknowledge that the United States is an imperialist country. Thats what we do. Being imperialist is as American as apple pie and most Americans dont really seem to comprehend that truth. An objective analysis of American history since the 19th century has demonstrated time after time that the American government wields its vast military and intelligence resources on behalf of the interest of wealthy donors and corporate interests. This was true when we instituted a coup of the democratically elected Prime Minister of Iran in 1953 on behalf of oil interests (source) and it was true in the 1954 coup of the democratically elected President of Guatemala on behalf of the United Fruit Company (source). This was true when the Obama administration pressured the government of Haiti not to raise their minimum wage to $.61 an hour on behalf of corporate interests here in the U.S. (source). Just like apple pie.
As a local Israeli newspaper wrote recently Israel gave EXCLUSIVE rights to an American-Israeli corporation to drill for oil in the Golan Heights (source). The problem with that is the Golan Heights is occupied Syrian territory that Israel does not have legal claim to; they won this land in the 1967 war and according to international law may not annex it.
There are a few interesting footnotes about this American-Israeli corporation named Genie Energy.
#1 Former Vice President Dick Cheney is a paid adviser to this project (source).
#2 - News Corp. CEO Rupert Murdoch and former Exxon Mobil executive Gene Renna have joined its strategic advisory board (source).
#3 - Jacob Rothschild is involved in the deal and on the board. This guy is as connected to the world stage as any non-President.
Another interesting footnote the American supported Saddam Hussein used chemical weapons on Iran for four years and the American government did nothing. The Atlantic wrote about that HERE:

) and one would never have to worry about a bad hair day; I'd be royally pissed off that an American President would think that it was a swell idea to let al Qaeda have my country.
