Trump blames Russia, Iran for backing ‘Animal Assad’
2018-04-09
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] US President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
condemned the chemical attack carried out in Syria’s Douma that killed dozens including women and kiddies, and held the Assad regime responsible.

In a series of tweets on his official account on Sunday, Trump blamed Putin and Iran for backing "Animal Assad" as he put it. He added that they will have a "big price to pay" and called for the area to be immediately open for humanitarian aid.

they ended up reaching a peaceful resolution which was criticized by both political parties as lacking resolve and decision-making. Trump had called it a national "humiliation".

Many countries and leading figures, including The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire....
and Pope Francis, have also condemned the attack.

"There is not a good war and a bad one, and nothing, nothing can justify the use of such devices of extermination against defenseless people and populations," Pope Francis said.

Syrian state media denied government forces had launched any chemical attack as soon as the reports began circulating and said rebels in the eastern Ghouta town of Douma were in a state of collapse and spreading false news.

horrific pictures and videos are being circulated across social media platforms showing several children suffering from the attack.

#1  The images on the news showing children being frantically assisted reminded me much of the Hezbollah 'Green Helmet Guy' and the orchestrated civilian care antics before the video cameras.

Saddam's guys did something similar by transporting dead bodies to the scene of the video shoots, too.

Still not sure that the chem attack was by Assad or his enablers. Seems a bit false flag, especially in an area where the regime was winning.
