In the light of the increasing exposure of the OPCW as a deeply compromised instrument of power for the US-led global alliance, the role of aligned media in protecting discredited constructs must be examined.
On January 20, a quiet, unassuming expert
laid bare the OPCW suppression of evidence that would demonstrate the illegitimacy of the bombing of Syria in April 2018 by the UK, US, and France. Ian Henderson is a former OPCW inspection team leader and an engineering and ballistics specialist. Henderson
said he visited Douma with the first OPCW inspection team shortly after the alleged chemical attack on April 7, 2018. In an address to the UN Security Council Arria-Formula
Meeting, Henderson presented his misgivings and spoke of the OPCW management information lockdown.
Henderson's
analysis of the events, in particular the "chlorine cylinder dropped by Syrian air-force helicopters" narrative was inexplicably suppressed by the OPCW and omitted from the final report which fraudulently maintained the "likely" verdict that chlorine had been used.
Henderson's report had supported the conclusion that there had been no chemical attack. A number of other OPCW colleagues have also come forward with similar claims that their expert opinions were censored by the OPCW who appear to have been tasked with retrospectively justifying the US allied criminal aggression against Syria. A bombing campaign that resulted in the destruction of a
laboratory complex and cancer research center, located in Barzeh on the outskirts of Damascus.
It is worth noting that had this been a "chemical weapons" factory as claimed by Western intelligence, the potential for civilian deaths would have been horrific in the event of "chemicals" being released into the atmosphere close to Damascus residents.
