Chinese state media outlets have also used the conflict to continue painting the ...

Is POTUS Trump getting duped into World War III by the Deep State? Supporters line up to denounce Syrian missile strike

April 15, 2018 -

But when it comes to dealing with the Deep State — that combo of media elites, party bosses, the intelligence community and the military-industrial complex — the president seems less sure of himself.

That may help explain why he may have been duped into launching — with British and French assistance — his latest attack on Syria under the guise of President Bashar Assad’s use of chemical weapons against a rebel faction last week.

Few are disputing that an ...

Now that Biden is bombing Syria, Democrats are silent

March 02, 2021 -

Why is that, you might be asking? Because Democrats are partisan to the core. It does not matter if a Democrat president does the exact same thing as a Republican president. If a Democrat does it, there is no problem. If a Republican does it, all hell breaks loose.

While such partisanship is present within the GOP as well, it is not nearly as prevalent as it is among Democrats. Democrat "success" is contingent, in large part, upon toeing the party line while attacking ...

Saudi Arabia to reestablish diplomatic relations with Syria after rekindling ties with Iran

March 29, 2023 -

Reuters reported on March 23 that Riyadh and Damascus have agreed to reopen their embassies after cutting diplomatic ties more than 10 years ago. Several Western and Arab states severed ties with Syria when the country's civil war broke out in 2011. A Syrian source told the outlet that the reopening of both embassies is scheduled after the Muslim holiday Eid al-Fitr.

There are far more vaccine-damaged children in America than chemical weapons-damaged children in Syria

April 07, 2017 -

President Trump's explanation for the attack included these words:

Assad choked out the lives of innocent men, women and children. It was a slow and brutal death for so many. Even beautiful babies were cruelly murdered in this very barbaric attack. No child of god should ever suffer such horror.

If you replace the word "Assad" with "CDC" or "the vaccine industry," it all makes even more sense. Vastly higher numbers of children right here in America ...

U.S. government used chemical weapons to murder children in Texas… does that mean it’s okay for other nations to bomb us?

Shortly after the Syrian city of Douma was allegedly hit with a chemical weapons attack back in early April, President Donald Trump and many in the mainstream media quickly blamed the incident on Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. This was the pretext by which President Trump almost overnight made the decision to start lobbing bombs into Syria, despite a lack of credible evidence that President al-Assad was even the guilty party.

It's a "shoot first, ask ...
