On March 24, Haaretz headlined "Jihadists, not Assad, apparently behind reported chemical attack in Syria."

Western sources and media scoundrels initially blamed Assad. Syrian soldiers were killed. Government officials demanded an international investigation.

"These two facts would indicate that Assad's forces were not behind the attack."

Physical and medical evidence suggests chlorine gas was used. Jihadists appear able to place it in a warhead, secure it so it doesn't leak, and launch it to explode on impact.

Perhaps CIA and other Western operatives helped them. Assad had nothing to do with attacking Syrian forces and civilians.

On March 24, The New York Times headlined "Arms Airlift to Syria Rebels Expands, With Aid From CIA."

Airlifting arms, munitions and supplies began "in early 2012," said The report.

Washington's been involved since conflict began. Earlier claims about restricting help to non-lethal aid didn't wash.
