The War Party and its Due Diligence

April 10, 2018 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

“The sole beneficiaries of the gas attacks in Salisbury and Syria appear to be the War Party,” writes Pat Buchannan in The American Conservative. Some advice for National Security Advisor John Bolton: measure twice, cut once, if not at all.

Most Americans, other than Bolton’s War Party, want to avoid another military engagement on foreign land. Unfortunately, as PJB points out, “With his Sunday tweet that Bashar Assad, ‘Animal Assad,’ ordered a gas attack on Syrian civilians, and Vladimir Putin was morally complicit in the atrocity, President Donald Trump just painted himself and us into a corner.”

Pat continues:

The folks who cheered Trump a week ago when he said we were getting out of Syria, will they cheer him if he announces that we are going deeper in?

Before any U.S. attack, Trump should make sure there is more hard evidence that Assad launched this poison gas attack than there is that Russia launched that poison gas attack in Salisbury, England.

One month after that attack, which Prime Minister Theresa May ascribed to Russia and Foreign Minister Boris Johnson laid at the feet of Putin himself, questions have arisen:

If the nerve agent used, Novichok, was of a military variety so deadly it could kill any who came near, why is no one dead from it?

Both the target, Sergei Skripal, and his daughter Yulia are recovering.

If the deadly poison was, as reported, put on the doorknob of Skripal’s home, how did he and Yulia manage to go to a restaurant after being contaminated, with neither undergoing a seizure until later on a park bench?

If Russia did it, why are the British scientists at Porton Down now admitting that they have not yet determined the source of the poison?

Why would Putin, with the prestige of hosting the World Cup in June on the line, perpetrate an atrocity that might have killed hundreds and caused nations not only to pull out of the games, but to break diplomatic relations with Russia?
