The Balance of Probabilities
Murray, Craig
http://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2017/04/the-balance-of-probabilities/Date Written: 2017-04-06 Publisher: Craig Murray Year Published: 2017 Resource Type: Article Cx Number: CX20629 Unlike the famous chemical weapons "attack" portrayed by the BBC in Saving Syria's Children, it does appear that in the latest incident at Idlib there was real horror inflicted by chemical attack of some kind. The question is who did it and why? Abstract: - Excerpt: Bashar al Assad is neither stupid nor unsophisticated. Aided by Putin, he outwitted Obama by quickly giving up his chemical weapons to be destroyed and accepting transparency in verification. There is no justification for the destruction of Iraq, but if Saddam Hussein had been able to swallow pride as completely as Assad, he too could have had a very good chance of averting disaster.
