There's a saying that you can't work in a paint shop without
staining your clothes. When Donald Trump became President of the United
States he rode in on a manifesto that
included tackling government corruption. His catchphrase was "Drain the
swamp!". Trump was elected to the White House as his first ever political
appointment. Before then he had been a businessman his whole life who had only
skirted the peripheries of the political world. It must have been a horrifying
shock for him to see government for the first time as an insider. The real swamp
is of a scale and a rancidness that was totally beyond his worst expectations...
and he was thrown straight into the deepest stretch. Who knows what they
threatened him with; but it would have been something far worse than the recent
Stormy Daniels scandal. Maybe it's the life of Melania or Barron; or perhaps
some of his many grandchildren. 2016 is over; the empire has struck back and
today the Deep State
is only about two years behind where it would have been if Hillary Clinton had
won, as they had intended. In a baffling manoeuvre, Trump has appointed John Bolton
as his National Security Adviser; this is the neoconservative hawk who was
George W Bush's ambassador to the United Nations and one of the driving forces
for the Afghanistan
and Iraq
invasions. And now an incident has just occurred that is virtually an exact repeat
of a trick they tried to pull off almost precisely a year ago to the day, see: http://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.co.uk/2017/04/counter-trumpening.html.
There has allegedly been a chemical weapons attack on the town of Dummar
in Syria . This
has been blamed on the government forces led by the Syrian national leader
Bashar al-Assad. Last year this led to an armed strike on a Syrian airbase that
came perilously close to a direct military confrontation with Russia ,
a reckless engagement between two nuclear superpowers that could easily have
escalated to the total destruction of both countries and the deaths of millions
of people on both sides. Now it's happening again and President Trump has warned
that he will once again carry out a military attack on Syria .
He said: "Get ready Russia ,
because they (cruise missiles) will be coming, nice and new and smart!" Source:

However Trump is a prolific Twitter-user and when you read this Tweet of his on
the subject a different picture emerges: "Many
dead, including women and children, in mindless chemical attack in Syria . Area of atrocity is in lockdown and
encircled by Syrian Army, making it completely inaccessible to outside world.
President Putin, Russia and Iran are responsible for backing animal Assad. Big price..."
He describes the attack by Assad as "mindless";
that's a strange and revealing word to use. Assad has all but won the civil war
against Al Nusra, the Syrian
equivalent of the Islamic State that the United
States has been supporting. America
recently announced that it was removing all military assets from the region,
effectively making this a mission accomplished situation for Assad. If he were
some sort of masochist intent on thwarting his own political ambitions then he
would have to do something hideous in order to shame himself in the
international community, reignite domestic hostilities and invite renewed US
intervention... such as carrying out a chemical warfare attack against women
and children. This is also an area that he has entirely under siege by his
army. Why would he need to attack the area with chemical weapons in any
situation? I think Trump's Tweet is a cryptic cry for help. He cannot warn us
openly so he is doing so the only way he safely can, by hinting. He makes the
point that Assad's actions are "mindless" and militarily superfluous
as well as political suicide. Then he also adds the point that Dummar is inaccessible
to the outside world; this will hopefully make people ask how on earth anybody
can confirm whether the stories of chemical warfare attacks are true. Then
Trump goes on deliberately to contradict himself by saying that Russia
is responsible. I just hope this is enough to alert the population before it is
too late...
