How will government-controlled media convince us Assad really did the chemical attack?

Unless you get all your thoughts from Fox News, CNN or any of the of the other state media outlets, you might suspect US-supported, Al Qaeda actually did the chemical attack that Doctors Without Borders says killed almost 400 people.

The media really needs to convince us that Assad did the attack as a reason to begin bombing the Syrian people, in spite of all the video, rebel admissions, timing of events and motive. How will the government-controlled media convince us to beg for more war against Syria?

    I think it's interesting right now because Fox hates Oblama and he is spoiling for a fight while the UN is pussyfooting around so they are more against Assad making the attacks while the more Liberal CNN and MSNBC are on Oblama's side. It's really kind of amusing right now

    We don't know exactly who did it, you certainly don't know for sure either.

    We do know that according to weapons inspector in March this year that it was likely the chemical attack was from the rebels.

    Yes, the rush to war seems rather unseemly, dangerous and ill considered, but your paranoia about the "government media" really needs looking into!

    They will lie lie and lie again.

    Because this is not about the people of Syria its about taking one of Israel's enemies out.

    The trouble with that is Israel could end up being worse off with Al Qaeda on its doorstep.
