what else &#8211; retaliation against the latest and greatest chemical attack, which took place two months ago.<\/p>\n<p>How do we know Assad (and apparently, Russia) was behind the attack? We don&#8217;t: in fact, former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, in a moment of brutal honesty, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/news\/2018-01-23\/tillerson-blames-russia-alleged-syria-chemical-attack-after-admitting-he-doesnt\">admitted <\/a>that he really doesn&#8217;t know much at all about &#8220;whoever conducted the attacks.&#8221; But hey: just like it is &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rt.com\/news\/421550-russia-skripal-highly-likely\/\">highly likely<\/a>&#8221; that Russia poisoned the former Russian double agent in the UK &#8211; with no proof &#8211; so it is &#8220;highly likely&#8221; that a clearly irrational Assad was once again behind an attack which he knew would provoke violent and aggressive retaliation by the US.<\/p>\n<p>And so we now wait for that flashing, red headline saying that US ships in the Mediterranean have launched a missile attack on Syria, just like a year ago. Only this time Russia &#8211; which is allied with the Assad regime &#8211; is not planning to be on the defensive, and according to Russia\u2019s Defense Ministry, <strong>&#8220;US instructors&#8221; are currently training militants to stage false flag chemical attacks in south Syria, i.e., the catalyst that will be used to justify the US attack on Assad. <\/strong>The incidents, the ministry said, will be used a pretext for airstrikes on Syrian government troops and infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;click on the above link to read the rest of the article&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Russia Claims US Training Syrian Militants For False Flag Chemical Attack To Justify Imminent Airstrikes Last April, in one of the Trump administration&#8217;s first &#8220;diplomatic&#8221; ventures, the US fired 59 Tomahawk missiles on Syria, in retaliation for the latest alleged chemical attack by the Assad regime, the same &#8220;false flag&#8221; excuse which was used by [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[10180,296,694,776,827],"class_list":["post-32497","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-geopolitics","tag-chemical-attack","tag-false-flag","tag-russia","tag-syria","tag-united-states"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32497","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=32497"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32497\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":32499,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32497\/revisions\/32499"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=32497"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=32497"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/olduvai.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=32497"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
