US Says Assad Has Approved Gas Attack In Idlib, Setting Stage For Major Military Conflict<\/h2>\n

ZeroHedge.com<\/p>\n

At this point there’s not even so much as feigning surprise or suspense in the now sadly all-too-familiar Syria script out of Washington.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Wall Street Journal\u00a0<\/em>has just published a bombshell on Sunday evening as Russian and Syrian warplanes continue bombing raids\u00a0over al-Qaeda held Idlib, citing\u00a0unnamed US officials who claim<\/a>\u00a0“<\/em>President Bashar al-Assad of Syria has approved the use of chlorine gas in an offensive against the country\u2019s last major rebel stronghold.”<\/em><\/b><\/p>\n

And perhaps more alarming is that the report details that\u00a0Trump is\u00a0undecided over whether new retaliatory strikes\u00a0could entail expanding the attack to hit\u00a0Assad allies Russia and Iran<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0this time around<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

That’s right, unnamed US officials are now claiming to be in possession of intelligence which they say shows\u00a0Assad has already given the order\u00a0<\/em>in an absolutely\u00a0unprecedented level of “pre-crime” telegraphing of events on the battlefield<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

And supposedly these officials have\u00a0even identified the type of chemical weapon to be used:\u00a0chlorine gas<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The anonymous officials told the WSJ of\u00a0“new U.S. intelligence” in what appears an eerily familiar repeat of precisely\u00a0how the 2003 invasion of Iraq was sold to the American public\u00a0<\/strong>(namely, “anonymous officials” and vague assurances of unseen intelligence)\u00a0\u2014<\/em>\u00a0albeit posturing over Idlib is now unfolding at\u00a0an intensely more rapid pace<\/a><\/em>:<\/p>\n

Fears of a massacre have been fueled by\u00a0new U.S. intelligence indicating Mr. Assad has cleared the way for the military to use chlorine gas in any offensive, U.S. officials said<\/strong>. It wasn\u2019t clear from the latest intelligence if Mr. Assad also had given\u00a0the military permission to use sarin gas<\/strong>, the deadly nerve agent used several times in previous regime attacks on rebel-held areas. It is banned under international law.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It appears Washington is now saying\u00a0an American attack on Syrian government forces and locations is all but inevitable<\/strong><\/i>.<\/p>\n

And according to the report, President Trump may actually give the order to attack even if there’s no claim of a chemical attack, per the WSJ:<\/p>\n

In a recent discussion about Syria, people familiar with the exchange said,\u00a0President Trump threatened to conduct a massive attack against Mr. Assad if he carries out a massacre in Idlib<\/strong>, the northwestern province that has become the last refuge for more than three million people and as many as 70,000 opposition fighters that the regime considers to be terrorists.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And\u00a0further<\/a>:<\/p>\n

The Pentagon is crafting military options<\/a>, but\u00a0Mr. Trump hasn\u2019t decided what exactly would trigger a military response or whether the U.S. would target Russian or Iranian military forces aiding Mr. Assad in Syria<\/strong>, U.S. officials said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Crucially, this is the first such indication of the possibility that White House and defense officials are mulling over hitting “Russian or Iranian military forces” in what would be\u00a0a monumental escalation that would take the world to the brink of World War 3.<\/strong><\/p>\n
