On December 7, the US State Department finally released an official statement on the November 24 chemical attack, which hit the government-controlled city of Aleppo injuring over 100 people. However, instead of condemning terrorist groups, which used chemical weapons, the State Department accused the Assad government and the Russians of gassing Aleppo residents to undermine the ceasefire in the Idlib de-escalation zone.
The statement is another example of doublethink widely employed by the US-led bloc in its diplomatic and media efforts in the conflict. When alleged chemical attacks take place in the militant-held areas, the US blames Assad. When alleged chemical attacks take place in the government-held areas, the US also blames Assad.
The Russian Defense Ministry reacted to accusations by saying that the supply schedule of chemical weapons by the Western special services to the terrorists in Syria is synchronized with State Department’s statements. The defense ministry added that it has undeniable evidence that the chemical weapons attack was carried out by militants.
According to the Russian side, the US may have been using chemical weapons accusations against Russia and Syria to draw attention from its own war crimes in the area of Hajin in the Euphrates Valley.
On December 7, two Turkish military convoys entered Idlib through the Kafr Lusen border crossing. The convoys, which included several battle tanks, moved to Turkish observation posts in Murak and Shir Mughar in northern Hama.
These two of 12 Turkish observation posts established in the framework of the Idlib de-escalation agreement have a special importance because they are located in the area where a Syrian Arab Army (SAA) military action is expected in case of a further escalation in the region.
Sporadic clashes between the SAA and militants erupt in northern Hama on a constant basis. Over the past few days, the SAA has repelled several militant attacks. On December 8, the Syrian military even employed an armed UAV to target positions of the National Front for Liberation (NFL) in the town of al-Hakurah.
On December 8, Mustafa Bakkor, a spokesman for Jaysh al-Izza, claimed that Iranian forces in northern Hama are raising Russian flags over their positions to “protect themselves from Israeli bombardment.” Earlier in 2018, the Free Syrian Army in southern Syrian made similar accusations claiming that Iranian forces were wearing SAA uniforms to avoid being detected by the Israeli military and intelligence.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported that government forces had arrested 12 suspects during a recent operation against ISIS cells in western Daraa. Some of the suspects are reportedly related to Abu Ali Al-Baridi, a former leader of the Khalid ibn Al-Walid Army. The ISIS-linked terrorist group was eliminated in July as a result of the joint operation by the SAA and former members of the Free Syrian Army.
In Deir Ezzor province, the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) continue their efforts against ISIS. Last weekend, SDF units backed up by US and French Special Operations Forces entered the town of Hajin and captured over a half of it. The advance was supported by more than 100 airstrikes of the coalition.
The ISIS-linked news agency Amaq claims that ISIS members killed over 20 SDF members and destroyed at least 2 vehicles in the clashes. However, it appears that if the US-led forces really seek to capture Hajin, they will do this soon.
As shown in this article, the United States has recently used banned weapons to subjugate civilians in Syria:

The use of “fire and brimstone” by U.S. forces in a last minute and desperate attempt to rid Syria of Bashar al-Assad is almost biblical.
When is “enough is enough” with US’s bullshit?
yes – they are the hellish inhabitants of a division on our planet – and I bet the US is responsible for the cruelty to agricultural animals – the infrastructures they use to make our beautiful planet – HELL for those earthly creatures – our sweet animals. I bet alot of that infrastructure was invented in the US>
When they destroy themselves
STATEMENT: U.S. Officially Accuses Assad, Russia Of Staging Chemical Attack In Aleppo
It would be tempting to just make a big, ostensibly noisy, and wide-open YAWN as due reply to these 100% predictable, utterly unconvincing Tourette tics. However, there is a more clever approach that would put their, ahem, tiny ’intellects’ to a little work here:
— Putin and Assad using chemical weapons against Syria’s civilian population? Seriously, is this really something which Exceptional and Indispensable folks cannot stomach? Are Russians and Syrians not allowed to have some ”fun” as they’re fighting ISIS? Putin and Assad look quite successful, don’t you think?
Bottom line: We are dealing with utter degenerates with a highly questionable mental state here, mind you. I’ve quite often made the comparison to loud, smelly drunkards on a park bench. Addressing the Ziomedia’s insane rubbish on its own terms is like trying to befriend the alcoholics by offering some carrot juice. You just make an idiot out of yourself.
‘In Deir Ezzor province, the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) continue their efforts against ISIS. Last weekend, SDF units backed up by US and French Special Operations Forces entered the town of Hajin and captured over a half of it.’
Captured from who?ISIS or the Syrian government?
Isn’t ISIS also US-backed?
“Isn’t ISIS also US-backed?”
Yes. Therefore any reports about the SDF fighting ISIS are completely illogical. The SDF are substitute garrisons for ISIS; that is it.
Verdict: SDF ”sales promotion” garbage. Might still soothe some Westerners to hear that, yes, Western mercenaries are ’fighting ISIS’, LOL.
A classic case of the left hand fighting the right hand. They used to put people doing that in the insane asylum, now they make them government spokesmen and pay them ungodly salaries, with perks. Problem is they are still in an insane asylum, but being insane they don’t notice.

Haha, yes! And another problem of them not being locked up is that we have to put up their criminal antics.
By the way, Auslander, thanks for the great photos of the 2019 calendar. I loved October with the people standing together and praying, facing the same direction. I find it strange to have churches with pews.
Be well Auslander.
With any luck, eventually they will be locked up.
It pleases me that you enjoyed the photos and I agree, I also find churches with pews strange.
In brief, the US government inspired, created, supplied, armed, and paid ISIS. It also periodically provides it with fresh weapons, ammunition, food, clothing and boots, vehicles, and intelligence. When it deems necessary, it acts as ISIS’ air force.
The purpose of this cunning scheme is that the US armed forces can then enter the same areas where ISIS is established and pretend to fight against it. That gives them an ideal excuse for being in a country where thye have no legal right to be, and carrying out an unprovoked war of aggression. In their view, it permits them to attack the legitimate armed forces of the country that their terrorists have invaded and to carry out any murder and destruction they please. Everything can then be blamed on ISIS, or alternatively – as in this latest episode – on the government of the victim nation.
These cartoons give a concise view of how it works:

Hehehhee, on the spot. First cartoon is priceless.
Thanks for sharing.
Ha ha, priceless! But the third link above was a dead URL (404).
Brilliant and very funny!
“SDF units backed up by US and French Special Operations Forces entered the town of Hajin and captured over a half of it”
If anyone here actually believes this nonsense please go see your psychologist.
Dear Flopot,
Actually the psychologists will only make things worse.
But consider this, the SDF or Kurdish forces actually need both the US and French SOF’s to do ‘their’ fighting for them?
I think that the SDF may be in a spot of bother once the French SOF’s are forced to return home to take on the yellow jackets and the Americans forces to defend their wall in southern US.
Somehow it reminds me of ancient Rome.
“The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported that government forces had arrested 12 suspects………”
Even a dead rat knows the ‘syrian observatory’ is a crock of kaka, one guy sitting in his mother’s basement in UK and culling news reports to formulate his ‘observations’. The US DoS has less credibility than the fat man sitting in Mum’s basement.

Anyone who trusts the us government enough to deal with it at all deserves what they get. dc, tel aviv, the saudis and the city of London are all pathological liars. There will not be peace until they are all gone and the puppeteer banksters are dead.
The definition of insanity is when somebody keeps on making the same mistake, hoping it would turn out different. The West is yet again accusing Assad of gassing his own people, as if Assad was foolish enough to do something like this and incriminate himself in the process, giving the West ammunition to fire against him. Why should he use gas when he is winning ? And the West really believes people will believe this old nonsense ?
The first time this happened some years ago, the West immediately accused Assad, even though ISIS commanders openly admitted they were responsible, as they did not know how to use gas canisters. In the process they not only kill civilians, but a dozen of their own men. What is the West planning ? To attack Assad again, using old excuses ? It better think again, as nobody will fall for this old trick.
Is it not a more a matter of it not needing to be true or believed, but this is the official line of the patriarchal overlord and if any of us want to keep our jobs or any position in the establishment, in any country in the empire, this is the line we are expected to follow. It does not matter if it is true or not, insane or not, and if an isolated few malcontents can see through it or not. This is the rule from on high and all must conform regardless. It is a “rules based world order” and this is the rule. The patriarchal world system can’t function without it.
I remember a similar case back in 1983 when the United States invaded Grenada. We were having a big discussion about it in the school teacher’s cafeteria, in Auckland New Zealand. A number of teachers were indignant and saw it as completely criminal and insane. Even Margaret Thatcher complained about it. However the school principle was present and he knew what the patriarchal code for the day was. He justified the invasion of Grenada on the grounds, get this, “Cuba was expansionist.” The principle knew full well what the patriarchal code for mass control was regarding this matter. And he enforced it in the cafeteria. The tragedy was the principle was actually a good and decent man. He simply saw it as his responsibility to uphold the established social order. If he didn’t his own position would be in jeopardy. This is how the system is supposed to work for all of us.
seems like things are heating up – that executive arrested in Vancouver – she’s actually a Canadian Chinese citizen – is very bad – and although I haven’t read it in any US newspapers – supposedly she had a dinner date that night – Dec 1st with one of the top computer scientists in China – and he fell to his death from his hotel balconey that day – the same day she was arrested – if this is true – its obviously CIA – Pompeo – assassination – its scary – also the big factory where the delicate hardware for computers – with rare metals – blew up in China – the same day –
Do you have any references for these stories? I might be wrong, but your claims concerning this factory and that scientist sound like spreading rumours.
Ann is not spreading rumors. There was a moon of alabama dec 7th post about this: a meeting was to take place between the CFO of Huawei and a chinese world specialist, prof Zhang, who was set to revolutionise the global semiconductor industry. They were supposed to meet at the G20. On the way there, she got arrested. He developed a sudden urge to commit suicide. A fire broke out at the factory supplying semiconductors for Huawei which will now delay product launches due early 2019..Really bad luck for the company!
The U.S. spy services and military do not like Huawei, as they can no longer easily hack the equipment it sells.
The U.S. is lobbying various countries not to use Huawei equipment. Australia, New Zealand and Japan already agreed to keep Huawei out. The EU tech commissioner Andrus Ansip also warned of using Huawei.
thanks Serbian Girl – very interesting – I’ll check out that MoA article – I got it off a conversation group on FB called sikroad 21 – mostly Asian people –
You’re welcome Ann! Yes it check it out, although I think his source may be similar to yours. Here is an article about Prof Zhang Soucheng. There’s more to him than meets the eye. He was managing Beijing’s VC fund to bring cutting edge technology to China. I wonder if “depression related suicide” is code for something..?

So I was wrong. This equals to total war against Huawei. Reminds me of the big explosion in the port of Tianjin. Just a couple of days or weeks later a big US ammunition depot in Japan was blown up. Both events were apparently accidents according to the official version… I think it’s the US and Chinese services dealing blows to each other. There was a first counterstrike today, the sale of the most recent I-Phone models has been banned in China by a court due to some patent quarrel with Qualcomm. Well…
NATO is a global terrorist organization and should be treated as such. Those murderous fascist gangs must be stooped before they do real damage.
Russia and Syria should warn the US to leave Syria if they don’t a Blitzkieg against the SDF should be launched,time the Reich’s bluff was called.
The US can eat dust for all I care.
I’m sick of it, don’t listen to it, don’t believe it.
I repeatedly analyze it and always end up in the same place.
US lying propaganda narratives are a sack of horse manure.
I hope history does justice on the demented moronic US.
(Today I am just overwhelmed by it all)
@AriusArmenian
Don’t worry my friend, all lies get exposed, either in this life, the next, and for some in both. On a individual level, it happens just from the temporal nature of life itself(death). An individual can do as he pleases, but eventually will have to face the music as they say. On the grand scheme of things, if we step back a little, we can see that time, exposure, and knowledge it self will tie the noose around the criminals neck. Just compare our times, to let’s say an earlier period, where there was a lot less information on these different criminal elements. We just need to do our part along the way. A firm conviction, and patience needs to be exercised by us. A lie is a lie, and eventually gets sorted out.
America is eagerly applying Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels’ advice: “Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth.”
This latest American accusation is the latest variation of the USA”s beloved Weapons of Mass Destruction meme that it used against Iraq to justify economic sanctions; No-Fly Zones and bombing; intrusive UNSCOM snipe hunts … sorry… WMD inspections; and ultimately an America-led war of aggression that has killed hundreds of thousands of Iraqis while maiming and refugeeing countless more.
Oh yeah, quietly forgotten down America’s Orwellian Memoryhole: there were no Iraqi WMDs.
Today, America still pathetically plays the WMD card against Iran, North Korea, or in this case Syria.
And like the Boy Who Cried Wolf, the Americans still delude themselves that they have any moral or political credibility when doing so.
Syria is the rock on which the arrogant AZC Titanic will smash:
“While Syria has been defending its families from terrorist mercenary proxies, something huge has been happening on a global scale as a result. Over the course of this conflict many of what seemed to be unshakable established powers have started to crumble and fall; and because Syria has stood its ground and stood for the truth, it has inspired millions of people around the world to do the same. [The Syrian Resistance has gained powerful Allies]. Humanity owes Syria a debt.” (salute Janice Kortkamp).

When someone with road-rage is cursing at you and throwing up fingers inviting you to pull over and swing, your best reaction is to give him a smirk and keep driving forward relaying to him that he’s not even worth your attention nor time. You look in your rear view mirror as he is enraged swerving trough traffic frantically trying to catch up ultimately driving into a ditch ending up helpless, alone and defeated.
Russia should not respond to accusations that are obviously ridiculous.
Trump should just fire the DOS. They don’t serve any useful purpose at this point, and in fact have gown to be a huge liability.

US-backed commander reportedly defects to the Syrian Army in northern Aleppo
https://mobile.almasdarnews.com/article/us-backed-commander-reportedly-defects-to-the-syrian-army-in-northern-aleppo/
“A Syriac commander from the U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) reportedly defected to the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) in northern Aleppo this week.
According to a military communique from Aleppo, the commander Fadi Gabriel left the U.S.-backed group for the Syrian Arab Army after negotiating with the high command in Damascus.”
Lies, lies, and more damnable lies. The mendacity of Washington/ Izrael knows no bounds. When I first heard of ISIS I called it USis. Very obvious deception. After the false flag of 911, I adopted a “fool me once shame on you… fool me twice shame on me” attitude. Never again!!! As a captive citizen of the United States of Zionism, My first suspect in any national or international incident is Washington DC, Britain, and Izrael. The Anglo-Zionists want war by any/all means necessary and they want it now because many of the captives in the US and Europe are waking up to their deception.
Unfortunately Russia is in their cross hairs as is China. They will exert pressure on them until they have no choice, but to protect themselves. A few years ago, I came to the conclusion that The Anglo-Zionists actually want the USA nuked to some degree. They are psychopaths on a Satanic mission. They do not care about the US people or humanity as a whole but view us as expendable to their plans for world domination. Hopefully they will be stopped in time…if there is any time left, and all perpetrators prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law whether in the Military, government, media, etc. Justice cries out for a world tribunal to try them for crimes against humanity. For all that they have done there can be no mercy.
Simple proof that the US uses terrorists to create poisonous attacks to smear the Russian Federation forces defence of Syria’s sovereignty. These suicidal US warrior activities destroy US global power each time it’s power is used to fake the Syria invited defenders of sovrenignity as evil.
