    Sorry, I thought you'd perceive its left-wing bias when I mentioned that it's run by liberals.Two examples then: 1) It continually reports that Assad carried out the chemical attack in (or near) Damascus without the slightest evidence that he did. 2) It invariably accompanies reports of emotive events by exaggerating it with the use of the word 'children', and getting in the words 'barrel bombs', subliminally suggesting that the attack being reported was undoubtedly perpetrated by the regime. There are many other surreptitious nuances the BBC uses which I don't feel inclined to enumerate.

    That's still your opinion
    I'm pretty sure that it doesn't and which attack in particular are you referring to as there were several?

    If we take this article then we can quite clearly see that it does not accuse the Assad government of dropping chemical weapons.
    That doesn't even make sense.
    So you just do and say what you feel? Ok good for you.

    Which isn't much. I have to assume that as you have no rebuttle then you must have conceded the argument.
    Let me know when you can rub two brain cells together which I will subsequently ignore.

    That statement was clearly made in error or jest?

    Globalresearch? Haha :roflol: seriously?

    Anyway if you want to talk about Syria's chemical attacks then you should state which one you are talking about.

    In my considered opinion both sides are guilty of butchering innocent people and using chemical weapons

    I love it when Fascists try to use Free Speech so as to destroy democracy and impose dictatorship.

    Let's never forget that Hitler was elected in a Democratic election.

    seems it was done as part of ongoing sanctions against Russia for their illegal invasion of the Ukraine, though the British Government are denying any involvement or even knowledge of it happening.
