Important Notice: The key documents in this report are not authentic. We are leaving the article up for historic record not to endorse its accuracy. In particular the first document reported, the Leaked Britam Defence Syrian documents, seem to be fraudulent. The source of this article, Storm Clouds Gathering, who we find to be credible, has taken their original post down for the same reason — the lack of veracit of the Britam documents.

On August 21st, 2013 chemical weapons were used the Syrian conflict yet again. Western powers, the U.S. and France in particular enthusiastically didn’t hesitate for even a moment to take advantage of the tragedy, decrying it as a crime against humanity and using it as a springboard to announce their preparations for military strikes against the Syrian government.
Make no mistake this was a crime against humanity… but the gas was NOT used by the Syrian government, it was used by the NATO backed rebels. In this video we’re going to show you definitive evidence to support this claim and we’re going explain the U.S. and NATO’s motive for committing such an atrocity. The leaked documents that we are going to be presenting are available for you to download yourself. You’ll find a in a link in the description to that download and you’ll also find links to the mainstream articles we used in our research.
Now in order to really understand this event we need to look at it in context.
The United States has had Syria and Iran in their cross hairs for a long time. The plans for these wars have been in the works for over a decade.
[Wesley Clark video]
The U.S. government doesn’t like to present its wars as empire building, they prefer to paint themselves as defenders democracy and human rights. To accomplish this little public relations sleight of hand they have have proven time and again that they are willing to flat out make stuff up and they’re willing to kill thousands of people to advance their political objectives. We saw a blatant example of this in the Iraq war where they tried accusing Saddam of still harboring the chemical weapons that the U.S. had provided him in his war agains Iran.
Even back the 80s the U.S. was trying to take out the Iranians, they didn’t like the fact that their puppet, the Shah, had been ousted in 1979 and as Wesley Clark pointed out the end game is still Iran. For a long time they tried going after Iran directly by accusing them of building nuclear weapons but this line of worn out propaganda fell apart when elements within the CIA and Mossad came forward stating that there was no evidence that Iran even intended to build such a weapon. You can only cry wolf so many times before people start rolling their eyes, so these chicken hawk neo-cons switched strategy and decided to go after Syria to get to Iran. They know that Syria and Iran have a mutual defense agreement and if NATO forces enter Syria Iran will be drawn into the fight.
Rather than attacking Syria directly the U.S. and NATO have been running a proxy war by arming and funding the Syrian rebels (aka the FSA) funneling these resources through their allies in the region. To obscure the source of this support Qatar has been used to purchase weapons from countries like Sudan and then route them to Syria via Turkey.
Qatar is a close military ally of the U.S. They provided tank support in the Gulf war of 1991 and Qatar served as the US Central Command headquarters during the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003.
Fast forward to January of 2013 when it was revealed that emails and a large quantity of sensitive documents from Britam Defence a, UK-based military contractor, were leaked by a hacker. [See note at the top of this article.] These documents exposed a proposal coming from Qatar to launch false flag chemical weapons attacks in Syria and blame it on the Syrian government. According to the documents the plan had the full support of Washington and enormous sums of money had been offered to for the project.
“We’ve got a new offer. It’s about Syria again. Qataris propose an attractive deal and swear that the idea is approved by Washington.
We’ll have to deliver a CW to Homs, a Soviet origin g-shell from Libya similar to those that Assad should have. They want us to deploy our Ukrainian personnel that should speak Russian and make a video record.
Frankly, I don’t think it’s a good idea but the sums proposed are enormous. Your opinion?
Kind regards
David”
The person sending the email was David Goulding, the managing director of Britam, the addressee was Phillip Doughty Dynamic Director and founder of Britam Defence. By accessing the servers the hacker was able to obtain scans of Doughty’s passport, resume as well as the passports of the Ukranian operatives that the email suggested should be used to carry out the attack. [See note at the top of this article.]
The leak also included hundreds of other documents containing detailed financial and operational information for Britam Defence, including scores of signed contracts weekly assessments and incident reports for projects in multiple countries. Among these were details regarding a contract with Saudi Arabia to help prepare their forces for a war with Iran. The leaks also depicted a tight business relationship with the infamous war profiteer Haliburton. [See note at the top of this article.]
The documents acquired by this hacker were not easy to come by, most of the places where they were uploaded were taken down very quickly without explanation. However we managed to get the files and we’ve spent some time analyzing them. After investing this time it’s very clear to us that they are real. But don’t take my word for it. Just take a look in the description for the download link and go verify for yourself. [See note at the top of this article.]
This leak was never mentioned by the mainstream media at all in the United States or Europe, and there was no investigation whatsoever even though what was being discussed here was clearly plans to commit a war crime. Three months passed and on March 19th sarin gas was used in Syria near Aleppo. Israel and the U.S. promptly blamed the Syrian government for the attacks even though many of those who were killed were Syrian government soldiers. Obama began talking about the event as a red line that had been crossed and the war mongers began their saber rattling in ernest.
However the U.N. insisted on investigating the issue themselves, and on May 6th, 2013 UN investigator, Carla Del Ponte, went public stating that evidence from their investigation indicated that it was Syrian rebels that had used the sarin gas and that there was no indication that the Syrian government had launched any chemical attacks whatsoever.
Russia’s U.N. ambassador, Vitaly Churkin, agreed with Del Ponte after Russian experts visited the location where the projectile struck and took their own samples of material from the site. Those samples were then analyzed at a Russian laboratory certified by the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons. According to lab results they found that the presence of Hexogen, utilized as an opening charge, and which is not used in standard munitions pointed to the attack being launched by the rebels.
Rather than cover this development, the mainstream media did what they always do when they don’t want the public to look at something: the simply changed the subject.
Now of course the fact that the U.S. backed rebels had attempted to frame the Syrian government in order to build support for a NATO invasion would be bad enough, they were trying to start a war of aggression, but let’s remember that sarin gas was in fact used. This means that the U.S. and its allies were willing to commit a blatant war crime, killing scores of civilians in order to justify toppling Assad. Nor did the U.S. withdraw their support after this event, in fact they increased it.
You would think that the fact that after this first plot had blown up in their face the west would back down or try a different approach, but no, apparently those running this circus only have so much material or grey matter to work with. In July the U.S. began openly discussing “kinetic strikes” against Syria as if their lies hadn’t been exposed. This of course brings us to the attack on August 21st, 2013 where they attempted once again to frame the Syrian government for the use of sarin gas, and once again they got caught.
The first wave of media coverage tried to pin the attack on the Syrian government, and the U.S. and France instantly came out condemning Assad. By August 24th the Pentagon had already announced plans for missile strikes, but even as they did their story was already falling apart again.
The Syrian army came forward that same day with footage to back up their report that they had uncovered a massive chemical weapons cache in rebel tunnels in the Damascus suburb of Jobar. This is the exact neighborhood where the chemical attack took place.
The Syrian government’s version of events is backed up with several other key bits of evidence:
1. On May 31st, 2013 security forces in Turkey found a 2kg cylinder filled with sarin gas after searching the homes of Syrian militants.
2. On July 7, the Syrian army went public about a chemical lab they had found belonging to rebels in the city of Banias.
3. We already have documents clearly showing that the U.S. was backing a plan to frame the Syrian government with chemical weapons.
All of this clearly shows that the rebels had the means and the intent, however the most obvious variable in this equation is motive: the only parties that benefit from launching this attack are the Syrian rebels, the U.S. and its NATO allies. The Syrian government knows full well that the U.S. and NATO have been looking for any excuse to invade. The last thing they want to do is hand them that excuse. The rebels on the other hand have already been caught committing brutal atrocities and they’ve already been caught creating fake video of civilian casualties. The clip you’re watching right now is one of the most obvious examples. This chemical attack launched on August 21st
fits with their previous pattern.
The rebels further exposed their hand when two days after the attack they released a video statement vowing to strike back with any and all means. They claimed to have access to chemical weapons and they stated that they now intended to use them in the conflict with zero reservations from this point forward. Essentially, they are using their own crime as a pretext to openly start using chemical weapons in combat.
The stakes in this coverup are high. Both Russia and China have openly sided with Syria and Iran, and Russia has warned that thermonuclear war could result if the U.S. continues down this path. That’s a outcome that’s too horrific to even contemplate. However even if that worst case scenario is averted this is still a matter of life and death for the Syrian and Iranian people. If the U.S. invades a lot of civilians are going to die. Their situation is not going to be improved by the U.S. attacking anymore than it was in Iraq or any of the other countries that we’ve toppled.
We have to do everything in our power to stop this. Please, don’t just treat this like a bit of entertaining political drama. Please help us get this information out to everyone especially to the military. Share this to facebook, to twitter, post it on your website. Download those documents put them on disc with this video and hand them out on the streets. If you’re in the military and you find this video please send it to your commanding officer and to everyone you trust in your unit. If you are afraid of being punished then find a way to send it anonymously.
Hundreds of people were killed in these attacks many of them children, and the U.S. government was behind it. If you’re a parent imagine what that would feel like if it were your son or daughter that had been slaughtered to forward the political objectives of these psychopaths. Think about it long and hard because these things have a way of coming home to roost.
To understand the real reason for this conflict please watch our video entitled The Road to World War 3.
