The Guardian: New suspected chemical attacks reported in Syria, dozens injured

Three chlorine attacks reported in Idlib province with nearly 80 people said to have been affected

Syrian activists and a doctor reported Thursday new suspected chemical attacks in the northwestern province of Idlib, leaving several dozens of people suffering from asphyxiation.

Mohammed Tennari, a doctor who testified before the UN Security Council last month after treating a number of victims in Idlib from an earlier chemical attack, said there were at least three separate attacks in the province that injured nearly 80 people.

But, but Lurch (I mean Kerry ...ah what the Hell Lurch) got an agreement.

Anzino,

That agreement was with the Syrian Government,

Kerry's agreement with ISIS and Al Quida is different.

"The reports said government helicopters dropped barrel bombs containing chlorine on the villages of Janoudieh, Kansafrah, and Kafr Batiekh on Thursday."

The reports, are out of the SOHR, which is a one man anti-Assad operation run out of a dress shop in the Cotswolds, and funded by MI-6.

The Sarman Field Hospital where Dr Tennari works is run and operated by Al Quida.

But I understand, you want Al Quida and ISIS to win in Syria.

the agreement was for sarin, not chlorine :)

Assad will continue to use chemical weapons and commit the worst atrocities of the war, which is something when you have JAL and ISIS in the same conflict.

Hi iSIS,

Anything more to add,

You know that " anonamous" doesn't play with the NSA.
