>One thing that's essential when speculating about things like this is to start from a proper foundation.
Agreed
> POTUS wrote those tweets. It's unprecedented to claim otherwise
In not sure about unprecedented. For example http://www.newsweek.com/who-writes-trumps-tweets-660074 There are plenty of examples of varied writing styles in his tweets. I'd say it's near certain he doesn't write all of them. He's POTUS, he has other shit to do. At least a portion of his tweets will be written/composed by others. A good guess would be the ones that drip officiality, perfect spellings, neat hashtags etc. I don't know if he wrote these, but I don't think its unprecedented to say he doesn't write his own tweets. Didn't mean to imply the state department didn't write that release, mb.
>The US military has real time HD videos of Syria from space
True, but it's not like we've not seen false pretences of chemical weapons used to initiate war. Same was true in Iraq, an invasion which looks eerily similar to the current situation. We have no way of verifying the information they have, we only know it's not unprecedented for there to be lying/deception used in the prelude to war.
>POTUS has no need for subterfuge here.
In a public tweet that can be seen by literally everyone? Seems a decent place for subterfuge to me tbh, It's not like angry tweets are legally binding contracts, and you know they'll be widely seen and reported on. Great place for subterfuge. The motive is more questionable, but the location makes sense.
> I don't think he's ever NOT told the truth on his Twitter.
I would agree he is generally truthful, but often vague. Leaves him room to manoeuvre.
>Assad is a puppet of Iran and always has been.
Agreed.
>This action jibes exactly with past behavior from Iran and Syria, including almost exactly a year ago.
I mean maybe, but doesn't it jibe more with current western deepstate false flag practises? Just look at the "nerve gas" attack in the UK, or the tragic Parkland (((survivors))).
>Russia and Syria claimed a month ago that there would be a chemical false flag in Syria. The US denied anything to do with it.
Agreed. Which nation is still missing from this group (((Israel))). And do they maybe potentially have the kind of intelligence service that enjoys pulling this kind of subterfuge nonsense? They do? They need to be on your list. If you're not considering the gassing as a potential Mossad operation, I'd have to question your sincerity. Sure consider iran/Russia as well, but this is textbook Mossad, and Israel is acting in a way that utterly supports the "Mossad false flag" theory. As is the US. As is Russia&co.
>Trump laid the trap and Assad and Iran walked right into it.
Pic related. Traps were laid, and who knows maybe it was trump who laid it. But it is not a case of Assad and Iran walking into to the trap
>Trump says he's going to leave
>You, Assad, will be safe and secure finally with your Iranian and Russian support to secure the rebel held areas
>Chemical weapons are a red line
>Use chemical weapons (to prove you drove them away???)
>???
>NATO invades
>You either get toppled from power, or WW3 starts between Russia and NATO
>?????
>I mean really ????? where's the profit? Even if it is "classic Iran", on what possible planet in this instance does using chemical weapons to provoke a NATO shitstorm look like "proving you drove them away". They were literally already leaving. He already drove them away. Why, why, why, why would he use chemical weapons and provoke the inevitable NATO response? Do you think he enjoys having his own country he's trying to control get subjected to multiple airstrikes? It is utterly nonsensical.
