Trump's fairy tale about Syrians prepping a gas attack gets traction, but the same corporate media that boosts it refuses to showcase Seymour Hersh's counterclaims.
Stephen Gowans asks: Why do the powers-that-be get to accuse Syria of things without evidence? Why are we supposed to be so scared of chemical weapons? Meanwhile, Trump drops the "Mother of All Bombs" in Afghanistan.

Canada, which lectures North Korea about "human rights," never criticizes the medieval despotisms that it sells billions of dollars worth of arms to.
