Emotional Propaganda 101: Evidence Suggests Chemical Attack in Syria is False Flag to Justify Military Intervention

By Steven MacMillan/The Analyst Report: 8 April, 2018

The alleged chemical attack in Syria is a blatant display of how emotional propaganda is used to try and pull at the heartstrings of the general public in order to garner support for a military attack on Syria by the US and her allies.     

Unless you are sociopathic, watching videos of children in distress who have allegedly been struck by a chemical agent (in an incident where women and children have also allegedly died) is going to upset you, yet it must be remembered that these videos are being used as propaganda instruments, intended to elicit an emotional response.    

Whether these videos are authentic or not will need to be investigated, but even if this is a genuine incident, and innocent people have tragically died, why is the Syrian government immediately blamed? We know that there is evidence that militant opposition groups have used chemical weapons in Syria previously, yet this is never highlighted by much of the media in their reports of this latest incident.    

Russian MOD Previously Warned of Chemical Weapons False Flag Attack   

Last month, the Russian Defense Ministry warned that the US was training militants in Syria to stage a chemical weapons false flag attack as a basis for the US to launch airstrikes against the Syrian government:    

“We have reliable information at our disposal that US instructors have trained a number of militant groups in the vicinity of the town of At-Tanf, to stage provocations involving chemical warfare agents in southern Syria. They are preparing a series of chemical munitions explosions. This fact will be used to blame the government forces. The provocations will be used as a pretext by the United States and its allies to launch strikes on military and government infrastructure in Syria.”    

The Russian Foreign Ministry denounced the fresh allegations against the Syrian government as “fake news,” stating that these reports are just the latest instalment in a “continuous series of fake news [reports] about the use of chlorine and other chemical agents by government forces.” The Syrian government has stated that “allegations of chemical use have become an unconvincing broken record.”

Not only that but we had a heads up from russian intelligence that another attack was coming and the preparations were coming from: The US controlled Al Tanf area.

Although my upvote is small I am happy to share it with you.

I am embarrassed of our free journalists. Not a word on the good outcome of the "War for Ghouta" with the agreed leave of Jihadis but instead buying a faked chemical attack again. The battle was won already, the chemical fake attack announced etc. I now hope they do not let these succers go in busses.
