(Before It's News)

Yesterday, Bashar Assad’s government was accused of overseeing a chemical attack in the northern Idlib Province of Syria, which left around 7o citizens dead including children. Florida Senator Marco Rubio commented today on the matter by criticizing Secretary of State Rex Tillerson’s hands-off approach towards Syria as contributing to the attack on the Syrian people.

During an interview with 970 WFLA, a Tampa Bay radio station, Senator Rubio explained that “It’s concerning that the secretary of state, 72 hours ago or a week ago, this last Friday, said that the future’s up to the people in Syria on what happens with Assad. In essence, almost nodding to the idea that Assad was going to get to stay in some capacity. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that a few days later we see this.”

He also took to twitter to condemn Bashar Assad and Vladimir Putin in a string of tweets showing graphic images of children as a result of the chemical attack.

This  isn’t the first time that Senator Rubio is found at odds with Secretary of State Tillerson. During the SOS hearings, Senator Rubio grilled Tillerson on Putin being a war criminal for his continued support of Assad, and Rubio confessed he had “reservations” about voting for Tillerson.

  • Rubio is jumping to conclusions. Assad is winning mightily against ISIS and is in cleanup mode after a successful Russia bombing campaign. Russia has stopped their bombing it was so successful.

    His chemical weapons were all destroyed in 2014. This was verified by the UN. He has none.

    Using chemical weapons invites super-powers into Syria…do you think Assad wants that. Seriously…think about this.

  • Rubio has repeatedly shown his ignorance of the facts. He said on national TV that Russia invaded Crimea. What could be further from the truth? Crimea was wise to the US financed takeover of Ukraine and the voted in a public referendum to be annexed by Russia. Because they knew if they did not, they were next. Victoria Nulan is on record stating the US spent over $5 billion on the takeover of Ukraine. That is why Monsanto is over there today…polluting the most precious soil on earth the fertile black soil of Ukraine with GMO crops and cancer causing glyphosphate.

    And now Rubio is working hard for the false narrative that Assad is poisoning his people. A false flag chemical weapons attack was done in 2013 and failed because the videos released on the internet showed Israeli gas masks rather than Russian. Well when this became known the videos disappeared. All chemical weapons were destroyed in 2014 in Syria Russian cooperation and verified by United Nations. Syria was winning and just in clean up phase ISIS. ISIS was loosing badly. Seriously, do you think Assad would use chemical weapons…it is the quickest way to get the US involved…he does not want that.

    And why are hundreds of US military vehicles being shipped to Syria (painted in desert colors)? There were shipped from US to Poland to Romania to Lebanon and this was initiated a WEEK BEFORE THIS ATTACK.

    Truth be told there is a group that wants to run a pipeline through Syria to become the ENERGY SUPPLIERS OF EUROPE. Assad is in the way and so it fuels their interest to blame a tragedy such as this on him. Let us hope and pray that the real TRUTH EMERGE SOON!!
