Trump Threatens Putin, 'Animal Assad' Over Syrian 'Chemical Attack'; Russia Warns of 'Grave' Response if US Launches Strike

By Tyler Durden / ZeroHedge
It’s deja vu all over again.
Remember when the US admitted Syrian “Rebels” have used chemical weapons? Or when earlier this year, now former Secretary of State blamed Russia for an alleged Syrian chemical attack despite admitting he doesn’t know who actually did it? Or when the US finally admitted there was “no evidence” Assad used sarin gas? Or just last week, when Trump said that the US is finally pulling out of Syria as a result of the defeat of ISIS (much to the Pantagon’s fury and open-ended timetable for extracting Syrian resources)?
Well, maybe you do, but the neocons back in charge of US war preparations foreign policy – now that war hawk John Bolton is Trump’s National Security Advisor – are so stuck with the age-old narrative that Assad is desperate to be bombed at any cost, that none of this actually matters, and instead the big story overnight is once again that, lo and behold, Assad decided to gas some “rebels” again, despite now overwhelmingly winning the war against US-backed insurgents, and despite knowing very well that exactly one year ago an alleged “chemical attack” prompted Trump to launch dozens of Tomahawks at Syria.
This is what happened (if you’ve seen this script played out before, you are not alone).
On Saturday night, an alleged chemical attack on a rebel-held town in eastern Ghouta reportedly killed dozens of people, according to US-linked medical services with Washington immediately responding that the reports – if confirmed – would demand an immediate international response. Actually scratch the “if confirmed” part – after all, the last time the US “intervened” in Syria, on April 7, 2017, the US did not need confirmation; Trump just needed a geopolitical distraction.
It seems that he needs another one again, and ideally one that shows just how angry he is with Putin now that an interview with Mueller is reportedly imminent.
A joint statement by the medical relief organization Syrian American Medical Society (SAMS) and the civil defense service, which operates in rebel-held areas, said 49 people had died in the attack late on Saturday. Others put the toll at 150 or more.

The response from the Assad side was similarly predictable: the Syrian regime, whose overthrow the US failed to achieve in the course of the 6 year proxy war in order to facilitate the transport of Qatari natural gas to Europe, denied its forces had launched any chemical attack as the reports began circulating and said the rebels were collapsing and fabricating news.
The Syrian state news agency SANA said Jaish al-Islam was making “chemical attack fabrications in an exposed and failed attempt to obstruct advances by the Syrian Arab army,” citing an official source.
Meanwhile, Reuters said it could not independently verify the reports. Others did the same: The Syrian Observatory said it could not confirm whether chemical weapons had been used in the attack on Saturday.
But, as we noted above, who needs confirmation: after all, if the 2013 “chemical attack” that started it all and was later proven to be a hoax was sufficient, just do the same. And sure enough, a video uploaded by “local media activists” allegedly showed bodies of victims – including women and children – of the reported chemical attack in Douma. Once again, nobody has actually confirmed if anyone has died.

Meanwhile, the US, itching for that military spending GDP boost was ready with the outraged retort: the U.S. State Department said reports of mass casualties from the attack were “horrifying” and would, if confirmed, “demand an immediate response by the international community”. At the same time, Britain’s Foreign Office also called the reports, if confirmed, “very concerning” and said “an urgent investigation is needed and the international community must respond. We call on the Assad regime and its backers, Russia and Iran, to stop the violence against innocent civilians.”
Note the “if confirmed” part, and keep an eye on how the narrative switches from that to “the attack was confirmed.” If the Skripal case is any indication, just repeating it often enough, should be sufficient.
Trump already did his part on Sunday morning, when he tweeted several statements on the alleged attack as if it was already confirmed, just as one would expect to accelerate the escalation:
Many dead, including women and children, in mindless CHEMICAL attack in Syria. Area of atrocity is in lockdown and encircled by Syrian Army, making it completely inaccessible to outside world. President Putin, Russia and Iran are responsible for backing Animal Assad. Big price to pay. Open area immediately for medical help and verification. Another humanitarian disaster for no reason whatsoever. SICK!

Then, for good measure, Trump decided to throw Obama under the bus for not crossing his “red line in the sand”, once again assuming the attack was confirmed.
If President Obama had crossed his stated Red Line In The Sand, the Syrian disaster would have ended long ago! Animal Assad would have been history!

If President Obama had crossed his stated Red Line In The Sand, the Syrian disaster would have ended long ago! Animal Assad would have been history!
After the alleged attack, State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauret recalled a 2017 sarin gas attack in northwestern Syria that the West and the United Nations blamed on Assad’s government. “The Assad regime and its backers must be held accountable and any further attacks prevented immediately,” she said adding that “The United States calls on Russia to end this unmitigated support immediately and work with the international community to prevent further, barbaric chemical weapons attacks.”
As for Russia, its Defense Ministry immediately denied that Syrian government forces deployed chemical weapons in rebel-held town of Douma, Tass news service reports, citing Major General Yuri Yevtushenko, head of Russia’s reconciliation center.
And, knowing where this is all headed, Russia’s Foreign Ministry says in statement on website that reports of chemical weapons attack in rebel-held town of Douma are fabricated, and any military operations against Syria on false pretenses may lead to “gravest consequences,”
“The goal of such reports is to aid terrorists and justify possible military strikes from outside Syria.”
Russia is correct, and it is now just a matter of time before Trump unveils his next grand diversion from the chaos at home and the trade war with China, by launching another 50 or so Tomahawks at some venue deep inside Syria, in a carbon copy repeat of what happened exactly one year ago.

Israel and the US behind another (big surprise) terror attack on Syria.
Just as every other bombing and terror attack including 911.
Trojan Horse Trump installs ultra NEOCON JOHN BOLTON, who was behind the fake Iraq WMDs scam, yet pretends to want to “bring the troops home”. On Bolton’s FIRST DAY a convenient WMD false flag attack occurs. Then zioDrumpf jumps on latest Syria WMD fake chem attack to pay off the Adelson, AIPAC jew lobby who bailed out his bankruptcies and bribed him w/ 100M $ election donation.
Meanwhile, those dissenters who should be ACTing to STOP Trump’s AIPAC carnage are glued to brain game mind pollution diversions like slot machine addicts, oblivious to it all.
The Grand Q Screw is more PNAC Make AIPAC Great Again horse shit:
Q Team is the stupidest Tavistock CIA psyops in decades, yet the Cattle Goyim falling for it like the fools they are. Distraction via Circuses. Do some back research. CORSI is a longtime NWO zionist Deep State employee- in his own words, and his Q piss is another fake tool to snag you all, just like Trojan Horse Trump aka Bush aka Obama aka Clinton, all AIPAC zionist puppets

yup–it looks like the deep state got to trump–wondered that when he sign the budget deal–we are very close to something very bad happening in Syria–you bible thumpers will be very happy,ww3 starts in damascus…holy shett said john,luke,paul,sam,rick…..
Open your eyes. The governments around the world are the real terrorists.
The People don’t want to know and don’t care about history
and don’t care about future generations or earth.
goooovermints killed about 240 million people in the last century–in this century it will be about 5 billion when the nukes go off….thank you goooovermint for looking out for us….
thank you goooovermint for looking out for rich people
Trump needs to understand that the deep state uses false flags to push their agenda.
Trump certainly knows that deep state Industrial Military Complex must have war to pad their wallets. What is easier than to blame your enemies as they did with Russian Collusion? If it indeed happened at all..we may never know. Like theSyria pictures of cyanide gas victims with white helmets with no covering for hands or face touching people spoke tremendously of false flags. Also word was out- media setting up situations and hiring people for these videos. Who do we believe? The deep state war mongers need to change narrative fast as the FBI will not hand over documents that indict their deep state friends to congress. Time to arrest these FBI Trojan horses….before they start a war.
Saudi Arabia is behind it. Paying other militaries to get what they want

LAST WEEK, Russia and Syria ANNOUNCED THE CAPTURE OF BRITISH CHEMICAL WEAPON STOCKPILES IN EAST GHOUTA ALONG WITH THE CAPTURE OF A “COALITION” COMMAND and CHEMICAL WEAPONS FACILITY…WITH ALL PERSONNEL.
Taken from the combined STATEMENT CENSORED FROM the WESTERN PRESS, from March 25, 2018
“The SYRIAN ARAB ARMY WITH THE HELP of RUSSIA CAPTURED A SHIPMENT OF CHEMICAL WEAPONS DESTINED FOR the EASTERN GHOUTA.
These were BRITISH WEAPONS PRODUCED AT PORTON DOWN in SALISBURY.
RUSSIA SUSPECTS that THE SKIRPAL INCIDENT IS RELATED as BY THEIR RECORDS, SKIRPAL WAS WORKING at PORTON DOWN AS A ……CHEMICAL WEAPONS TRAFFICKER… in partnership with a Ukrainian firm.
Russia denies attacking Skripal but admits he was under surveillance for
his activities involving support of terrorism in Syria and arms trafficking.
RUSSIA ALSO CONFIRMS that THERE ARE BRITI$H, AMERICAN. I$RAELI and $AUDI INTELLIGENCE OFFICER$ WHO WERE CAUGHT BY THE SYRIAN ARMY IN ONE OF THE…HEAVILY FORTIFIED OPERATIONS ROOMS…DURING THE INVASION of the SYRIAN ARMY AND its ALLIES of the EAST GHOUTA.”
VETERANS TODAY asked the SYRIAN GOVERNMENT FOR SERIAL NUMBERS AND CLOSE UP PHOTOGRAPHS OF CHEMICAL WEAPONS USED.
SYRIA SENT THEM TO US TODAY.
TODAY, the SYRIAN ARMY CAPTURED the following GERMAN MADE POISON gas sells,
shipped into Syria though Ukraine and Turkey and DELIVERED TO JEISH al ISLAM by A U$ …CH53 HELICOPTER…according to statements “allegedly”….gotten from POW interrogations.
!!! AMERICAN, BRITISH and I$RAELI MILITARY PERSONNEL …CAPTURED in SYRIA…HAVE CONFIRMED…THEY WERE ORDERED TO STAGE CHEMICAL ATTACKS…in EAST GHOUTA…..BY….THEIR….GOVERNMENTS ! ! !
The AMERICANS ARE STILL BEING HELD along with Israeli’s while ! ! BRITISH PRISONERS ARE BEING NEGOTIATED FOR ! ! !
SOURCES in DAMASCUS TOLD US THAT REPRESENTATIVES of OMAN in Damascus APPROACHED the RUSSIAN OFFICE of RECONCILLIATION …ON BEHALF of BRITAIN…..FOR THE RETURN OF BRITISH CHEMICAL WARFARE PERSONNEL.
The SHELLS IN THE ABOVE VIDEO (see ORIGINAL Veterans Today article) ARE IDENTIFIED as VX GAS FROM BRITISH STOCKPILES.
RUSSIAN OFFICIALS in SYRIA INFORMED BRITAIN through Oman that THEY WOULD HAVE TO DEAL DIRECTLY WITH SYRIA FOR THE RETURN OF THEIR PERSONNEL.
We have received no further information since, Damascus has remained silent on
how or if negotiations were proceeding.
We do know that US REPRESENTATIVE Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii, a US Army combat veteran
of Iraq, MET WITH both President ASSAD AND DONALD TRUMP, in order TO ARRANGE
FOR COVERT EXCHANGE, FOR…..SUBSTANTIAL FINANCIAL CONSIDERATION….
OF CAPTURED AMERICANS. ! !
Initial introductions for this meeting were done by VT.
Israel bought back a Brigadier General (they claimed he was a colonel) in 2015 that we know about.
The RECENT GAS ATTACK IN SYRIA, timed as the last terrorists we re
surrendering for relocation inside the Douma region of the Ghouta
pocket, WAS PLANNED PERSONALLY BY NOMINATED PRESIDENTIAL ADVISOR…JOHN BOLTON…AND….PRESIDENT TRUMP PERSONALLY……ACCORDING TO HIGHLY PLACED SOURCES. ! ! !
Our SOURCES in RUSSIA, at the highest level, TOLD US THE ATTACK WAS COMING BASED ON…… INFORMATION they RECEIVED FROM US and ISRAELI PRISONERS….TAKEN IN EAST GHOUTA….AFTER an EVACUATION ATTEMPT FAILED.
US CASUALTY ANNOUNCEMENTS IN THIS EFFORT………
HAVE BEEN RELEASED OVER THE PAST FEW DAYS AS HAPPENING IN OTHER AREAS…..TO COVER US COMPLICITY IN TERRORISM….
THIS DISHONOURS FAMILIES OF THE DEAD…..NOT JUST IN THE MISUSE OF SERVICE MEMBERS TO SUPPORT TERRORISM….BUT IN LYING TO FAMILY ABOUT COMBAT DEATHS.

“The Marine Corps identified FOUR MARINES KILLED ON TUESDAY in a CH-53E Super Stallion helicopter crash near El Centro, Calif.
The Marines were assigned to Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron
(HMH) 465, Marine Aircraft Group 16, 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing at Marine
Corps Air Station Miramar.
“The loss of our Marines weighs heavy on our hearts,” Maj. Gen. Mark Wise, commanding general of 3rd MAW, said in a statement.
“Our priority is to provide support for our families and HMH-465 during this critical time.”
The four Marines killed in the crash were Capt. Samuel A. Schultz, First
Lt. Samuel D. Phillips, Gunnery Sgt. Derik R. Holley and Lance
Cpl. Taylor J. Conrad.”
OTHER US CASUALTIES WERE LISTED AS a US Air Force F16 that ALLEGEDLY CRASHED
at NELLIS AIR FORCE BASE in NEVADA…AND……UP TO 6 AMERICANS who US CLAIMS WERE KILLED by “Kurdish Forces” in the north of Syria.
ALL DIED IN…..A FAILED….COMBINED US/Israel RESCUE OPERATION….TO REMOVE
NOT ONLY…COMMUNICATIONS and COMMAND PERSONNEL…BUT ALSO…CHEMICAL WEAPONS OPERATIONS TEAMS as well.
Last week, VT DAMASCUS RECEIVED EVIDENCE THAT Americans, US Army Special
Forces along with ISRAELI CHEMICAL WEAPONS OFFICERS had BEEN CAPTURED IN EAST GHOUTA.We were told that not only was A COMMAND FACILITY CAPTURED
WITH modern weapons but A STOCKPILE OF BRITISH MADE 81mm POISON GAS MORTAR SHELLS, numbering in the hundreds, was seized as well.
VIDEO’S were viewed by former MOD weapons specialists who identified the green
stripe on the shells seized in East Ghouta as VX gas from British
stockpiles.
The Obama administration investigated alleged chemical
attacks in 2012 and 2013 and advised Syria to turn over chemical
stockpiles as a way of discouraging TERRORISTS from CONTINUING TO STAGE CHEMICAL ATTACKS …TO BLAME ON DAMASCUS.
MOST efforts had their roots in BRITAIN’$ MI6 AND its AFFILIATE, the Syrian
Observatory for Human Rights AND the WHITE HELMET$.
The US…..IS CURRENTLY FACING MILITARY OPERATIONS AGAINST ITS OCCUPIED ZONE in SYRIA…by IRAQI, SYRIAN and RUSSIAN FORCES.
! ! The US…..HA$ BEEN TOLD TO REMOVE FORCES…OR…FACE A WIDER CONFLICT. !
The US AND…RUSSIA….HAVE BEEN AT WAR…..AGAINST ONE ANOTHER INSIDE SYRIA FOR ABOUT A MONTH NOW. ! ! !

Israel Launched Deadly Airstrike Against Syrian Airbase: Russia
by Tyler Durden…Mon, 04/09/2018 – 07:25
Despite President Trump adopting his harshest rhetoric yet to condemn Russia and the government of Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad for an alleged chemical attack in rebel-held eastern Ghouta, a missile strike carried out overnight on a Syrian airfield was not the US’s doing.
Instead, RUSSIA and SYRIA…HAVE ACCUSED I$RAEL of CARRYING OUT THE $TRIKE on Syria’s T-4 AIRFIELD… situated about halfway between Homs (Syria’s third-largest city) and Palmyra (famously the site of ancient ruins).
RT REPORTS that TWO ISRAELI F-15 JETS FIRED EIGHT GUIDED MISSILES AT THE AIRFIELD FROM LEBANESE AIRSPACE.
The JETS NEVER ENTERED SYRIA.
https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-04-09/israel-accused-launching-deadly-airstrike-against-syrian-airbase
Only the legally and clinically mentally retarded could believe claims that Assad gassed his own people. First, to the satisfaction of the Pentagon, Assad turns over all of his chemical weapons to the US. Then three false-flag chemical strikes are blamed on Assad, yet each one was investigated by the UN and our own MIT and determined to have been conducted by rebels. Trump knows Assad did not gas his own people. Trump has betrayed all of us who voted for him and is trying to start another big war for Israel in the Middle East. I support Trump’s immediate impeachment.
President Johnson lied to America, a nation of mentally-challenged vegetables, claiming North Vietnam attacked a US Navy vessel in the Gulf of Tonkin. The vegetables bought the lie, losing 54,000 sons, brothers and fathers, so Ladybird Johnson could make a couple more million dollars on her Brown and Root stock. The same American droolers bought President W. Bush’s lie, when he claimed Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction and could attack the US in 45 minutes. Now Trump is telling his second lie regarding the false-flag gas attacks in Syria. As expected, butt-dumb, fluoride-lobotomized American droolers will fall for his lies, as they always do. So, I have to prepare to flee to the Southern Hemisphere to survive WW3 because the vast majority of Americans are mentally retarded.
