"She was climbing aboard the loud and vociferous public opinion bandwagon following the chemical weapons attack by Damascus."

After all we've seen in modern times, where governments have used unverified and false claims to justify military aggression, you would think journalists would have learned their lesson. Not so! They blindly repeat claims, even when evidence is lacking and common sense says its doubtful.

There is no evidence that Damascus launched a chemical weapon attack. Not a shred of evidence has been offered. All we know with a some certainty is that a chemical was released in Khan Sheikhoun, Syria. Whether it was the terrorist organization (al-Nusra) that controls the area that had the weapon, or the Syrian government that dropped it, is 100% unknown at this time.
