Putin says expects 'fake' gas attacks to discredit Syria's Assad President Vladimir Putin said on Tuesday that Russia had information that the United States was planning to launch new missile strikes on Syria, and that there were plans to fake chemicals weapons attacks there. Putin was speaking hours before U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson was due to arrive in Moscow for talks with Russia's foreign minister and days after denouncing last week's U.S. missile strike on a Syrian air base as illegal. Standing alongside Italian President Sergio Mattarella who was in Moscow for talks, Putin, when asked by a reporter if he expected more U.S. missile strikes on Syria, said: "We have information that a similar provocation is being prepared ... in other parts of Syria including in the southern Damascus suburbs where they are planning to again plant some substance and accuse the Syrian authorities of using (chemical weapons)." He did not offer any proof for that assertion. Russia has defended the Syrian government, a staunch ally, against U.S. allegations it was behind the nerve gas attack in Syria's Idlib province last week which killed scores, saying there is no evidence to underpin such an allegation. http://www.reuters.com/article/us-mideast-crisis-syria-usa-putin-idUSKBN17D1K9
I guess the Saudi's didn't need Hillary to get that pipeline through. It appears the CIA/Goldman Sachs/SPECTRE are conducting covert operations themselves.
Isn't it ironic that the same media that regularly run bombshell stories based totally on anonymous sources are so quick to point out that Putin or Trump "did not offer any proof" for whatever they are claiming. That's media code for "he's lying." We were treated to an orgy of these "fact checks" over Trump's claims that Obama was surveilling him and his campaign. Oops, turns out he was right, and it's not the first time.
