09/08/13 – Gareth Porter – The Scott Horton Show

Gareth Porter, an independent investigative journalist and historian, discusses his evidence that the Obama administration passed off its own intelligence assessment of the Syria gas attack as a CIA analysis; the CIA’s observation that no materials have been deployed from Syria’s chemical weapons facilities; why the attack doesn’t bear the hallmarks of sarin gas; and why the White House pushes toward war despite the large percentage of Americans against military action in Syria.
