The Syrian government has once again been accused of attacking a rebel-held area with chemical weapons:
A suspected Syrian government chemical attack killed scores of people, including children, in the northwestern province of Idlib on Tuesday, a monitoring group, medics and rescue workers in the rebel-held area said.
The Syrian military denied responsibility and said it would never use chemical weapons.
The head of the health authority in rebel-held Idlib said more than 50 people had been killed and 300 wounded. The Union of Medical Care Organizations, a coalition of international aid agencies that funds hospitals in Syria, said at least 100 people had died.
The British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the attack killed at least 58 people and was believed to have been carried out by Syrian government jets. It caused many people to choke, and some to foam at the mouth.
White House press secretary Sean Spicer blamed the attack on the "weakness and irresolution" of the previous U.S. administration.

Only one of those groups has actually done it, recently.
Maybe you should start there...

Why would he?
brad's nihilism is the narrative of fascism and he prefers it that way.
When everybody is equally terrible there is no point in having standards.
