    UN report will accuse Syria of crimes against humanity, confirm chemical weapon use

    http://www.theverge.com/2013/9/13/47...manity-confirm

    A forthcoming report from the United Nations will accuse Syria of crimes against humanity and confirm the regime's use of chemical weapons, according to reports from Reuters and the Agence-France Presse. "I believe the report will be an overwhelming report that the chemical weapons was used," UN Secretary General Ban-Ki Moon told reporters today.


    The report is the result of painstaking work by a team of UN affiliated experts, who collected evidence and eye witness accounts along with samples of air, soil, blood and urine from the scene of the attack near Damascus. The report was intended to focus on the means and method of the attack, rather than identifying the perpetrators, but experts had previously told The New York Times that the evidence would leave little doubt that President Assad's forces were behind the attack.


    It's unclear how this news affects Syria's plans to disarm its chemical weapons stockpile and sign the international chemical weapons ban, which had hinged on promises to avoid US military involvement. The Senate is scheduled to vote on the president's plan for a limited military strike next week.

    How they know it was an chemical attack? John Kerry still hasn't provided any actual evidence.

    This article is $#@!ing bull$#@!.

"I believe the report will be an overwhelming report that the chemical weapons was used," UN Secretary General Ban-Ki Moon told reporters today.
    So the report proves that chemical weapons were used, and the media translates that into chemical weapons were definitely used BY THE SYRIAN REGIME. What a huge $#@!ing disconnect from reality.

    No! That can't be! I've heard that the UN is an anti-American organization always working to subvert the good and noble intentions of the US government.

    Nowhere in any of the UN quotes or statements in the article does it say that Assad was responsible.

    Terrible journalism as always.
