We know that there have been six different chemical attacks that have all been confirmed to be staged in the last five years. A good two years before Trump even got into office, they'd staged several. And the ISIS and al-Qaeda operatives would fire the chemical weapons and put out promo videos wanting to get the praise like rock stars. But then the press would still blame the Syrians and the Iranians for it. And we would come on air and say that is not the case. That is a staged chemical attack.

And I think that the assertion that these attacks were faked is offensive. Alex believes that the rebels in Syria attacked themselves with chemical weapons in order to sway world opinion against the Assad regime and prompt U.S. attacks on Assad. This is not based on any evidence, really.

A new breaking article. Let's put that on screen because I've been showing what the Russians are saying, but I want to show what. Syria strike live updates. Russia may have tamper with chemical attack sites.

No, I mean, the thing that you really have to take into account, I believe, like Alex's entire argument that he's making hinges on his idea that the gas attacks were fake and that Assad didn't do it.

You could go ahead and make that sort of claim, but the facts on the ground seem to indicate that that's not the case, given his history.
