A Syrian military base was targeted by two Israeli F-15 fighters
According to a former director UN weapons, the recent chemical attack in Syria has nothing to do with Bashar Al-Assad. Åke Sellström went on to suggest that the attack was an attempt to topple the Syrian leader.
Dozens of people were killed in the town of Douma on Saturday, but according to President Putin and other leaders, the attack was a ‘false flag’ perpetrated by the Al-Qaeda affiliated White Helmets group.
A Syrian military base was targeted by two Israeli F-15 fighters in the Homs province, eight guided missiles were fired at the airport, killing 14 soldiers.
Infowars.com reports: However, according to chemical weapons expert Åke Sellström, who investigated the use of chemical weapons in both Iraq and Syria, it is unlikely that Bashar Al-Assad and the Syrian Army were responsible for the attack in Eastern Ghouta.
“With great criticism from the international community, Assad and Russians bombard Ghouta bit by bit, and that they would add the opportunity to be criticized for using chemicals – it feels strange. They do not need it, their tactics are already successful,” said Sellström, adding that there could be numerous “other explanations” for the attack.
Sellström added that if the United Nations was to investigate the attack, recordings and testimony would not be enough to ascertain what happened.
“We would have to meet people and doctors themselves and, in particular, need samples from the environment and poisoned persons,” said Sellström, adding that it would be difficult to measure chlorine exposure “because it evaporates quickly and does not leave any clear markers in the body”.
As we document in the video below, the rebel group in Douma had already agreed to leave the area within 48 hours and the battle was won.
A rebel-held chemical weapons factory was also discovered in the same region where the attack happened just weeks ago.
Given that the Syrian Army was on the verge of victory, it makes no sense whatsoever that they would sabotage their own success.
