Iraq Déjà Vu


Another Iraq WMD tale.
The Wall Street Journal has just published a bombshell on Sunday evening as Russian and Syrian warplanes continue bombing raids over al-Qaeda held Idlib, citing unnamed US officials who claim "President Bashar al-Assad of Syria has approved the use of chlorine gas in an offensive against the country’s last major rebel stronghold."…
That's right, unnamed US officials are now claiming to be in possession of intelligence which they say shows Assad has already given the order in an absolutely unprecedented level of "pre-crime" telegraphing events on the battlefield.

And supposedly these officials have even identified the type of chemical weapon to be used: chlorine gas.

The anonymous officials told the WSJ of "new U.S. intelligence" in what appears an eerily familiar repeat of the how the 2003 invasion of Iraq was sold to the American public...
Only this time, Congress doesn't get to vote. It's all on Trump.

The truth, which is much worse than the idiocy swirling around that Drumpf is a Kremlin sleeper cell woken from his goldplated bed, replete with pornstars and Playboy bimbos, to bodyslam 'Murica and then remove it's hair in a surreal show of Biblical Samson, here representing 'Murica, meeting wrestlemania 'Murica, fuck yeah. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkghtyxZ6rc

The truth is all too simple. Drumpf has been laundering billions of Russky mafia money for decades. Whether it was through his casinos or the more than one thousand apartments he sold to known mafiosi. The Russky mafia saw a dimwitted and near-bankrupt shyster who had blown his Daddy's money and knew they had their man. Drumpf saved his "empire" by laundering money and getting a cut, and the mafia got to recycle billions of dollars of stolen state assets and the proceeds of crime through the grasping, desperate and abysmally useless "businessman". As one leading criminal lawyer said recently, Drumpf could claim ignorance if he had sold one apartment to known mafiosi. When it's some 1,300, over a third of all built and sold under the Trump name, he knows exactly who he's dealing with and why.

Drumpf may be a dummy, but he's also a survivor. So he'll do what the deep state demands of him. The laundering will linger in the background as a threat. All the while, Drump will be a good boy. Unless that is, Putin has Drumpf recorded as being more than just a loving father to Ivanka. Now that would be a pretty pickle.
