A leading weapons academic has claimed that the Khan Sheikhoun nerve agent attack in Syria was staged, raising questions about who was responsible.
Theodore Postol, a professor emeritus at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), issued a series of three reports in response to the White House’s finding that Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad perpetrated the attack on 4 April.

He concluded that the US government’s report does not provide any “concrete” evidence that Assad was responsible, adding it was more likely that the attack was perpetrated by players on the ground.

Postol said: “I have reviewed the [White House’s] document carefully, and I believe it can be shown, without doubt, that the document does not provide any evidence whatsoever that the US government has concrete knowledge that the government of Syria was the source of the chemical attack in Khan Sheikhoun, Syria at roughly 6am to 7am on 4 April, 2017.

Editor CEC adds:  The most convincing proof that President Bashar Al-Assad did not poison-gas his own people comes from simple logic. There is no evidence this trained medical doctor (ophthalmologist) is insane, and it would be a sign of madness to bomb his own people at the very moment when his forces were about to recapture the last stronghold of ISIS.  It is more logical to conclude that the Unelected US Supra-Gov has been behind ISIS all along, and has just made its boldest move to rescue ISIS by bombing the Syrian Air force.
