Reporter Pearson Sharp, who visited Douma, Syria, about 10 days after a chemical attack allegedly took place there, spoke with Sputnik Radio’s Fault Lines with Garland Nixon and Lee Stranahan on Monday after he was smeared by ThinkProgress.
Pearson said that after the Khan Shaykhun chemical attack that spurred US President Donald Trump to fire almost five dozen Tomahawk missiles at the Shayrat Air Base in Syria in April 2017, he was motivated to find out if it was really true that there was evidence that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad had used chemical weapons to kill Syrian civilian targets in Douma, as London, Washington and France have alleged.
When visiting Douma, Pearson explained that instead of describing what he personally saw, he wanted to put the camera on people in the town instead and let them tell the story. After interviewing dozens of Douma residents, Sharp found that “consistently, not one person in the town said they heard anything about an attack.”
A little curious thing I heard yesterday, is Haspels first day on a new assignment within counterterrorism was. 9/11 2001. At some point what appears to coincidence, in high numbers ,.. looses the assumption of coincidence.
This is how false history is made. For the best education, do not send your children to college, just drop them off on another continent with a small stipend and pick them up in a few years. It is the only way to learn the truth about the world. When reporters stay in groups like this, then special ‘interests” are the most likely interviews. The guy who wanders and gets lost is the guy who comes back to realize they can easily become the ‘painted bird”. It is most likely much safer to hitchhike alone through Syria, than Los Angeles or Chicago.
Reporters who stick to hotels and organized gatherings, are hardly informed.
If “ThinkProgress suggests Assad committed a chemical attack against his own people in Douma, than they are clearly the ones towing the Trump party line. If ThinkProgress says the Syrian government used chemical weapons on their own people, than the burden of proof lies on them. Citizens of Douma stating to mr Sharp that there was no chemical attack, along with those who testified at The Hague and the fact that the OPCW has found no trace of chemical weapons being used is evidence that there was no chemical attack in Douma. It’s much more evidence than the USG and mockingbird organizations have presented to suggest their was a chemical attack. ThinkProgress sounds like another Orwellian “Ministry of Truth” mouthpiece. War=peace; Freedom=slavery; ignorance=strength; ThinkProgress=Thoughtless regression
Correction: “…to suggest ‘there’ was a chemical attack.”
