File under: Govt of Syria

#1 Muddying the waters further there's this, from January of this year:

U.S. 'backed plan to launch chemical weapon attack on Syria and blame it on Assad's regime'

Leaked emails from defense contractor refers to chemical weapons saying 'the idea is approved by Washington'

Obama issued warning to Syrian president Bashar al-Assad last month that use of chemical warfare was 'totally unacceptable'

Sort of a reverse Fast & Furious by the same idiots who couldn't get it right the first time.

#2 With bad guys all rounded up and accounted for. Klingons leave Afghanistan and pull out of Benghazi just a few weeks ago, awaiting further assignment NFI.

UN Chem/Bio weapons inspectors and Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) arrive Damascus and link-up just prior to alleged chemical release.

Congress goes on recess, less McShame who ramps up attack narrative. Encourages Assad to declare 'snow day'.

Ralph Peters claims no threat to US national security, sez nothing in US Constitution which precludes us from permitting our enemies to destroy our enemies. [unless of course they really are not our enemies]
