Far Left Wing journalist Seymour Hersh says: “Obama cherry-picked intelligence on Syrian chemical attack to justify U.S. Strike.” The Obama administration quashed intelligence reports that suggested an al Qaeda-linked group could have been responsible for the sarin gas attack carried out in Syria last August, according to a news report published in London on Sunday.
Washington Times In threatening a U.S. military strike on Syria during the weeks that followed after the Aug. 21 chemical attack, President Obama and Secretary of State John F. Kerry cited “definitive” evidence that Syrian President Bashar Assad had been responsible for the incident.
What they kept secret, according to an article by Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist Seymour Hersh, was the belief of U.S. spy agencies that military forces loyal to Mr. Assad were not ones in Syria’s civil war to have access to sarin.
“In the months before the attack, the American intelligence agencies produced a series of highly classified reports, culminating in a formal ‘Operations Order’ — a planning document that precedes a ground invasion — citing evidence that the al-Nusra Front, a jihadi group affiliated with al Qaeda, had master the mechanics of creating sarin and was capable of manufacturing it in quantity,” Mr. Hersh wrote in theLondon Review of Books.
The al-Nusra Front was officially designated a “foreign terrorist organization by the Obama administration last year and should have been a suspect, according to the Hersh article. Instead, in order to solidify a White House narrative that Mr. Assad had crossed Mr. Obama’s “red line” by using chemical weapons, the Obama administration “cherry-picked intelligence to justify a strike againstAssad,” the article claims.
As of Monday, the White House had not responded to the article, which provides backing for Russian claims that the Syrian rebels were behind the deadly August attack. U.S. officials have said more than 1,400 people, the majority of them innocent civilians, were killed in the attack.
Chemical attack launched by Rebels on their OWN people, here’s the final proof:

According to this journalistic turd factory, there is not a shred of evidence that iran is developing nuclear weapons.
I don’ care do he be a liar ! He be black is all I care about.
Who cares if some of dem syrans got aced ? Obama bes great ! He give us free phones. He gonna do more ! He be black, y’know.
“Obama lied about the Syrian chemical attack……..” Obvious from the word go. Obama lies every time he opens his mouth—it’s what muslims do.
Slowly, ever so slowly, Americans are finally waking up to what they voted into the White House.
(taking you bloody long enough!)
As Bonni said, what’s new here is WHO is actually reported on this. As for the rest, well the savvy of us already knew of that and said so, even if it meant being again bashed with all sorts of name calling.
But hey, if they didn’t want to believe the experts who had the guts to publicly say so, why believe us, right ?
seymour hersch is a poor source to rely on. If he said the sun was to rise tomorrow I would have serious doubts. Through out his career he has been driven by a hatred for the United States and when mentioning Israel has never failed to find fault. He makes up and passes on lies as matter course and has been tripped up many times.

The US needs a Regime Change, and soon, before he totally screws up the World and Western Civilization. Face it. You have a Savage as President.
I bet the left will just twist this into another reason to hate America, not Obama
Wait and see the next investigation exposing a direct order from the White House to Obama funded and armed Al-Nusra boys to use sarin on civilians, and will anyone be surprised here, you racists?! (sarcasm alert).
so his chickens have come home to roost , lefties smell fresh blood regardless if it comes from one of their own , scavengers have their uses let them feed .
What a Surprise Obama Lied Again & Again and Will Always Lie!
Al Qaeda mishandled the gas canisters in a populous area using the people as a human shield. They murdered their shields and themselves by mistake. This is a perfect example of ISLAM the Death Cult. They are heedless of the destruction they cause.
Oh, no! Tell me it’s not so! I can’t believe it….he’d NEVER do something like that….They’re lying about the lies he lied about. Racists, one and all. (how’m I doin’, Bonni?)
Ok, I’m done playing liberal….
When the Left starts calling him a liar, it’s a whole new ballgame.
Doncha just love watchin’ karma at work???
And… I believe he would happily use sarin gas on US citizens, lie about the origin of the attack, and put the boot on our throat. He is a maniac, surrounded by maniacs.
Pink, he’d blame it on da Joooooos!
Yes, of course! da Jooos, or perhaps the patriots. I honestly think he will come up with something like this for the US. (h)e has people in “scared” mode. We should remember that there are way more of us, than there are of him.
not surprising since he hasn’t told the truth on Bengahzi either. obma wanted to attack Syria and when the UK wouldn’t follow suit he couldn’t really go it alone
He lies about everything. Why is this any different?
What’s different is that the Left wing media is reporting on it.
BNI, I agree- this is a good shakedown newsflash because it is being reported by the ‘Left.’ Perhaps slowly more people from the left will wake up about the ‘Dark Truth of Anti-Freedom Totalitarian Islam’ and about the enemy characters Cameron & Obama that are in bed with Islam; but I would not hang onto that dream.
This additional ‘Syrian Proof’ makes it absolutely clear that Obama is an enemy of the State of all Nations and is not just an enemy of the American people but is in fact an enemy of the entire Western World.
If Nixon could get into so much trouble because of his deceit; why can’t Obama be taken down? I am beginning to believe that the new generation of ‘Legal Eagles’ do not have the courage that once was dominate in America.
And if that is true, then the time has come for all ‘Freedom Fighting’ groups in USA to unite and organise a march against the Obama Administration to send a loud and clear message that deceitful would be despots like Obama cannot and must not every be tolerated.
Obama is so wrapped up in his own vanity that he has neglected the ‘American People’ and betrayed their rights. Obama spends billions of dollars in senseless overseas wars helping Muslims fight Muslims; meanwhile many of the American people are being denied good medical benefits support and are being denied housing assistance and are being denied decent pensions in retirement.
[I have American Relatives.]
And yes there are reports about second-rate inferior thinking American Councils that are stopping ‘Charities’ from giving free food handouts to the homeless on the streets.
I am confident that many Americans can extend this list… for example the unacceptable fact that many ‘Bank Tellers’ are being paid miserably low wages and are struggling to survive on the ‘bread line’ whilst ‘Senior Bank Executives’ are receiving excessive salaries and banks are running at record profit levels.
Totalitarianism comes in many forms, ‘Deceit’ by Politicians is a deliberate attempt to impose tyranny; Monopolies focused on ‘Greed’ neglecting concern for the people is ‘Totalitarianism’ and of course the most obvious ‘Anti-Freedom Sharia Law’ the rule of Islamic Doctrine is the worst form of Totalitarianism.
And ‘Blasphemy Laws’ is the most evil form of ‘Totalitarianism’ in existence.
Bonni, even these leftards agree:

But from HuffPo – crickets.
BNI the nationalist party in India have won the elections in several state in India. Gaining momentum for the fedal next yr. so good news. Pakistan would be shitting in its pants. The mini pakistan within India would be panicking as well. There might be a chance of a 4th war. What worries me is that this one might be a nuclear one
I don’t think so, that would be mutually assured destruction for both. The Muslims wouldn’t mind but the Hindus would.
The USA I strongly suspect has the Osama Keepers on twenty four seven bed alert.
