Get facts before dropping bombs

It is stupefying that the American mainstream press and media maintain a propaganda barrage with respect to supposed chemical attacks employed by Russia (poisoning a Russian couple in the UK) and by Syrian forces (in its civil war), without acknowledging the obvious: that there has been no proof presented for either charges.

On the contrary, evidence now exists disputing the claims of the UK authorities regarding the poisoning, and there is doubt about the Syrian chemical attack, even if it existed.

Especially relevant to this obvious aggression by U.S. forces in Syria is that the recent cruise missile bombing there took place before international inspectors (OPCW) were able to investigate the charges of a chemical attack and its causes. The intent by the Trump regime and its allies seems to have been: Strike Syria before the truth is known from an investigation on the site of the presumed gas attack.

This reeks of a false flag operation, something foreseen weeks earlier by a Russian spokesman. Most distressing, aside from the destruction and death resulting from bombing, is a suffocating smokescreen by American mass media, including The News-Gazette, that shrouds crucial information from the American public. This exacerbates a conceivable drift to war with Russia, a war which should be inconceivable since it would be disastrous for civilization.
