If you want to understand what is really
happening in the world today, a
mid-ranking official named Ian Henderson
is vastly more important to you than
Theresa May. You will not, however, find
anything about Henderson in the vast
majority of corporate and state media
outlets.
You may recall that, one month after the
Skripal incident, there was allegedly a
"chemical weapons attack" in the
jihadist enclave of Douma, which led to
air strikes against the Syrian
government in support of the jihadist
forces by US, British and French bombers
and missiles. At the time, I argued that
the Douma jihadist enclave was on the
brink of falling (as indeed it proved)
and there was no military advantage -
and a massive international downside -
for the Syrian Army in using chemical
weapons. Such evidence for the attack
that existed came from the jihadist
allied and NATO funded White Helmets and
related sources; and the veteran
and extremely respected journalist
Robert Fisk, first westerner to arrive
on the scene,
reported that
no chemical attack had taken
place.
The "Douma chemical weapon attack" was
linked to the "Skripal chemical weapon
attack" by the western media as evidence
of Russian evil. Robert Fisk was
subjected to massive media abuse and I
was demonised by countless mainstream
media journalists on social media, of
which this is just one example of a
great many.

In both the Skripal and the Douma case, it fell to the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons to provide the technical analysis. The OPCW is a multilateral body established by treaty, and has 193 member states. The only major chemical weapons owning powers which are not members and refuse the inspections regime are the pariah rogue states Israel and North Korea.
