    A New York Times investigation found that the Syrian government dropped a chlorine bomb on this apartment in Douma, Syria in April, killing dozens. Explore the evidence in augmented reality: nyti.ms/2tCJJFV

      The New York Times, I'm still a bit confused, can you explain again how the lattice imprint came to be left on the canister? Surely that would only occur if the canister was left resting on the latticework for a period of time, not if it passed through it at great speed. That would just leave random scratch marks, especially if the canister was surrounded by the finned framework to make it drop vertically, as you pointed out.

    • @DrRiq
      @DrRiq 6 років тому +7

      Champion N3C 1) no bomb drops completely vertically, and 2) the latticework fell asymmetrically, and crumpled against the side of the cylinder. This is not hard to physically imagine

Too much profit to be made from trading with them and an intercontinental war would cause serious losses.

      15 pages OMITTED from the OPCW report - indicating the canisters have a higher chance of being placed there MANUALLY and not dropped by aircraft/helicopter. Very likely these were planted. Chlorine traces were also diluted and not as concentrated as conventional chlorine weapons - either they are old or not chlorine weapons at all. The 'rebels' and ISIS have also been found to use chemical weapons and may have likely planted or used these themselves either to frame the Syrian government or other reasons. The Assad Regime is by no standards a hallmark of human rights defenders but this is the same propaganda and lies as seen throughout all US intervention - Iraq anyone?. The NYT is one of the biggest cooperators of the CIA and support the military industrial complex agenda.

      Thats not what he said. Pay close attention to his actual words and remember that English is a second language for him. Hes saying the terrorists attacked their own people, or it was an accident. Either way, hes implying that it was the terrorists' weapon. This is actually a very likely scenario; that they either accidentally released the gas as they were moving it, or more likely, that an airstrike released it. This happened several times in Desert Storm, where we bombed bunkers that had chemical weapons stored in them.

    For the assadists in the comments:
    1. Assad is not popular in Syria, literally just go to any online uncensored Syrian forum and youll see nothing but pro-FSA. Bashar hates sunni muslims, he is part of a minority Alawite government. The alawites, however, only are around 10% of the syrian population. The places that did have rebellion uprisings in Syria were always the Sunni majority governorates, the sunni make up 80% of Syria's population. The only reason Assad's family managed to get power was through a coup decades ago, ever since then, they were running fake elections where supposedly the Ba'ath party was getting 99-100% of the votes every single election. The assadists manage to hold power by Russian and Iranian support.
    2. The FSA is not pro-western. The FSA has fought Israel, they are funded by Hamas, and they fight NATO member Turkey.

Although they are a great source of information and analysis, I often wonder if there is any way for me to help the people affected. Maybe you could include links to places where you can sign petitions or something similar. It would make me feel less helpless against these horrific acts. :)

      @@OliverFlinn chlorine is easily produced by anyone who wants to. Sarin is provided by Turkish and Saudi allies. I will respond to you after work but they didn't launch them from helicopters. They launch them from morters and rockets as payloads. I will show you the videos and UN report of it later.

      @@OliverFlinn I'm going to. Because truth matters and I have family in Syria and it matters to them. Not for you though you aren't very friendly or reasonable or willing to discuss things in an objective way. Even in the face of outstanding evidence you'd probably keep the same beliefs anyways. Unless you're actually willing to have a reasonable conversation about facts and such.
