Intercepted phone calls that will be presented by the
Obama administration as proof that Bashar Al-Assad was behind last
week’s chemical weapons attack in Syria actually suggest that the
attack was not ordered by the Syrian government.
Phone calls by the Syrian Ministry of Defense
intercepted by Mossad and passed to the US reveal that Syrian government
officials, “exchanged panicked phone calls with a leader of a chemical
weapons unit, demanding answers for a nerve agent strike that killed
more than 1,000 people,” in the hours after last week’s attack.
Why would the Syrian Ministry of Defense be making
panicked phone calls “demanding answers” about the attack if they had
ordered it?
The fact that the highest levels of the Syrian
government apparently had no knowledge of the attack strongly suggests
that they did not order it, with the worst case scenario being that the
attack was “the work of a Syrian officer overstepping his bounds,” writes Foreign Policy’s Noah Shachtman.
“We don’t know exactly why it happened,” a US
intelligence official told Foreign Policy. “We just know it was pretty
fucking stupid.”
