state sponsored terrorism

 Is it possible, should there be a 'chemical weapons' attack in Syria, that there will be in automatic, immediate attack launched by the coalition? No pretext of going through the UN to add the aura of legitimacy to that which was desired all along? No trying to figure out if a chemical attack will have actually happened or who did the deed?  Nothing like that. Just a claim of chemicals weapons use and boom- the US/coalition hits? Bloomberg:

The report is from SOHR- I've no reason to disbelieve it.Considering SOHR is an outlet for the coalition and has long supported the destabilization/balkanization of Syria. A video is available at the link belowClearly the US is going nowhere- the negotiations between the SDF/YPG/PKK and Damascus are 100% disingenuous. Deceitful. Duplicitous. Dishonest.That reality inspired this post 

How timely is that warning? Really?Like you could set your watch to that! It was exactly what I'd expected. Just needed to see the reporting on it to know if my suspicions were well founded. And, of course, they wereRehashing: I wrote a series of posts beginning back about two weeks ago on the plan, or what looks to me to be a plan of the Astana 3, to return Idlib back to the central Syrian government.As smoothly as possible in order to avoid intervention on the part of the “alliance”  and their PKK proxies.

Tragedy: Disastrous. Calamitous. Misfortune

Firas Tlass: SAA Will Invade Idleb with Russian and Turkish Help  When I stumbled across this latest article my first thought was ‘wow, that’s a blast from the past’ Long, long time readers might remember the spin around the man named Manaf Tlass and his exit from Syria. Firas Tlass is Manaf’s brother.

 I've added an update at the bottom- a map, which should be very helpful to understanding the situation on the ground in and around Idlib- scroll downFollowing up on: Sochi: Iran, Russia & Turkey Talk Syria. Refugee Returns & IdlibWhere I'd commented:

 The Trudeau government - As they force through new gun laws that go so far as to require changes to the criminal code in Canada. Perhaps even employing a prorogue?  Making it more difficult to be a lawful gun owner.  While ensuring the existence or even increase of criminal gun ownership.  This same gun grabbing government has no problems sending sniper rifles over to the Ukraine.

I'd hoped to get this post up immediately after the one from Wednesday
