Remember the British Intelligence/Yellow Cake controversy?

22. I'm going to say it was a false flag operation by foriegn entities.

Over a thousand people dead from CW use is a large scale operation that would require a large chain of command and logistical support.

Seems far fetched that Assad would plan this event to use CW and then bring in UN inspectors the day he planned to use them. Makes absolutely no sense at all considering he is well aware of the consequences if he does.

However, the "rebels" know what the "red line" is and can build their narrative to discredit the Syrian military.

As a hat tip to another poster on DU, that timeline was six months from the time Obama stated the redline to the first reports of Syria using CW. Turns out the rebels did it.

Right now the Syrian military is defeating the rebels on the battlefield and they seem to be desperate. Fanatic and desperate is a dangerous combination.
