Russia claims “White Helmets” staged Syria chemical attack!
Says there wasn’t a single corpse.
MOSCOW, Russia (PNN) - April 12, 2018 - Russia claims that the reported chemical attack in Syria last Sunday was staged by the “White Helmets,” a Fascist Police States of Amerika-funded Non Government Organization lauded by mainstream media for its humanitarian work, while long-suspected of performing less-than humanitarian deeds behind the curtain.
Speaking with EuroNews, Russia’s ambassador to the European Union, Vladimir Chizov, said, “Russian military specialists have visited this region, walked on those streets, entered those houses, talked to local doctors, and visited the only functioning hospital in Douma, including its basement, where reportedly the mountains of corpses pile up. There was not a single corpse and even not a single person who came in for treatment after the attack.”
“But we’ve seen them on the video!” responded EuroNews correspondent Andrei Beketov.
“There was no chemical attack in Douma, pure and simple,” responds Chizov. “We’ve seen another staged event. There are personnel, specifically trained - and you can guess by whom - amongst the so-called White Helmets, who were already caught in the act with staged videos.”
Russia said it sent experts in radiological, chemical and biological warfare - along with medics, in order to inspect the Eastern Ghouta city of Douma where the attack is said to have taken place.
Russia’s Defense Ministry said in a statement that the experts “found no traces of the use of chemical agents,” following a search of the sites, adding, “All these facts show that no chemical weapons were used in the town of Douma, as it was claimed by the White Helmets.”
“All the accusations brought by the White Helmets, as well as their photos allegedly showing the victims of the chemical attack, are nothing more than another piece of fake news and an attempt to disrupt the ceasefire,” said the Russian Reconciliation Center.
In a statement to the UN Security Council on April 9, Russia’s UN Ambassador, Vassily Nebenzia, outlined Russia’s position on the timeline of the attack in Douma, as well as the Western response after the White Helmets reported that chemical agents were used.
On April 6, the new head of Jaysh al-Islam, following instructions of sponsors, derailed the evacuation of a party of fighters from Douma and resumed the rocket and mortar fire against residential areas in Damascus. The firing targeted [indistinct name of four areas]. According to official information, eight people died. 37 civilians were wounded. Unfortunately, we failed to see statements from Western capitals condemning the shelling of a historical district of Damascus. The following day, April 7, fighters accused the Syrian authorities of dropping barrel bombs with toxic substances. At the same time, diversions were being mixed up. It was either called sarin, chlorine, or a mix of toxic gases. Based on a well-known scheme, these rumors were immediately taken out by those who are financed by Western capitalists; I am referring to NGOs and the White Helmets who are mendaciously acting under the cloak of health professionals. These reports were also taken up and transferred to media outlets.
It behooves us once again to state that many of these dubious structures have a clear list of the email addresses of representatives of Security Council members, which shows that some of our colleagues, with a reckless approach towards their status, are leaking sensitive information to their protégés. Incidentally, all should recall the way that “accidentally”, the White Helmets put on the Internet a video that showed preparations for staging a so-called victim of an alleged attack perpetrated by the Syrian army.
Indeed, over the last several years, reports out of Syria have been criticized as being primarily of anti-President Bashar al-Assad origin and unverified.
In a speech at the United Nations, pro-Assad Canadian journalist and RT contributor Eva Bartlett gave her account of what’s going on with reports out of Syria - calling western sources “compromised” and “not credible”.
Meanwhile, Fascist United Kingdom Prime Minister Theresa May told Fascist Police States of Amerika President Donald Trump on Tuesday that Britain would require more evidence in last weekend’s suspected chemical attack before committing to a military strike against Syria.
The prime minister rejected a swift retaliation as inspectors from the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) prepared to visit the Damascus suburb where at least 40 people were reported to have been killed by chlorine gas on Saturday.
May chaired a meeting of the national security council in London this week, where she spoke with Trump and France President Emmanuel Macron for the first time since the Douma chemical attack. It is reported that Trump, who’s had a remarkable change of heart on FPSA involvement in Syria since the election, did not ask the FUK to join military strikes.
A No 10 read-out of her call with the FPSA president stated that they agreed the international community “needed to respond” but stopped short of blaming the Syrian regime. “They agreed that reports of a chemical weapons attack in Syria were utterly reprehensible and if confirmed, represented further evidence of the Assad regime’s appalling cruelty against its own people and total disregard for its legal obligations not to use these weapons,” it said.
Trump also appears to have backed off an imminent strike after promising Syria would “pay a big price,” and that the FPSA response would be decided by Wednesday. Trump reportedly canceled travel plans after reports emerged that Russian and Iranian involvement in Syria would complicate matters in the region.
Meanwhile, Secretary of Defense James Mattis has said that the FPSA is still assessing intelligence on the alleged chemical attack, saying in a statement “we’re still working on this.” In the same breath, Mattis said the United States is ready to provide military options for Syria.
