OPCW report: rebels used chemical weapons – not Assad
The Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) has confirmed the traces of the sarin gas used in Syria are not linked with the Syrian government’s former stockpile of chemical weapons. The report corroborates the Syrian government’s assertions that the faction responsible for the chemical attack, as well as 11 other instances of chemical weapons use, was the Syrian opposition.
The report also substantiates last month’s claims from Ahmed al-Gaddafi al-Qahsi, cousin of Muammar Gaddafi, who said that the chemical weapons used in the incident had been stolen from Libya and later smuggled into Syria via Turkey by militants.
The announcement follows an investigation carried out by the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) at the request of the Syrian president Bashar al-Assad and the Syrian government.
“In one instance, analysis of some blood samples indicates that individuals were at some point exposed to sarin or a sarin-like substance” said Ahmet Uzumcu, the head of the OPCW. He later added that the sarin gas examined bore different characteristics to the one formerly owned by the Syrian government.

'Starving Syria child' revealed as south Lebanon girl | News , Lebanon News | THE DAILY STAR
BEIRUT: The family of a south Lebanon girl depicted in a photo that went viral alleging to show a starving child from a besieged Syrian border town has expressed anger over the incident.
"They took it too far this time," Rosine Mazeh, the grandmother of 7-year-old Marianna Mazeh, told Al-Jadeed from their village of Tay Filsey in a report broadcast Saturday.
She said the photo of her smiling brown-haired, blue-eyed granddaughter was originally posted to Facebook three years ago and had been doctored several times in the past by individuals promoting different causes.
Most recently, the photo was circulated in a side-by-side with images depicting a skeletal figure said to be suffering from malnutrition as a result of a Syrian army siege in the town of Madaya, located several kilometers east of Lebanon's border.
Several other photos circulating on social media and picked up by some international news agencies that alleged to show starvation from the town have also been revealed as fakes.
"It has affected her a lot," Mazeh said. "Every time someone brings it up she puts her head down and becomes shy. At school, they keep on talking about the topic. She's not comfortable with it at all."
Abdel-Wahhab Mazeh, the girl's uncle, said the photo was taken outside a mini market in their village where she had gone to buy chewing gum.
"When we saw this, we tried as hard as we could to show that this picture wasn't right," he told Al-Jadeed, pointing to a location on the ground where he said she was standing when the photo was taken.
The girl and her father spoke during a separate report broadcast Saturday on Al-Manar from outside their home.
"I live in Tayr Filsey, not Madaya, and I am fine," she said.
Reports said Saturday that aid will be delivered to Madaya, under siege by pro-government forces, as well as two villages besieged by rebels in northern Syria, on Monday.

Daesh militants executed 80 people, including police, military people and those disagreeing with the group’s ideology near the Iraqi city of Mosul, according to local media.
MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Islamic State (ISIL, or Daesh) militants have fatally shot at least 80 people, including police officers, near the Iraqi city of Mosul, local media reported Sunday.
"Daesh militants executed 80 people, including police, military [people] and those disagreeing with the group’s ideology, shooting them at the Ghazlani military camp in the central part of the Nineveh province," a local source told the Alsumaria television channel.
According to the source, the terrorists of the group outlawed in Russia and in many other countries accused the dead of espionage and cooperation with the Iraqi authorities.
The Islamic State seized the northern Iraqi city of 2.5 million in June 2014. Mosul has since become the de facto Iraqi capital of the terrorist group.

The al-Nusra Front terrorist organization attacked a radio station belonging to its FSA allies ahead of a ceasefire which does not include terrorist organizations.
Kirill Vysokolov — Members of the al-Nusra Front shut down a radio station affiliated with the Free Syrian Army and kidnapped its two iconic spokesmen in the Syrian town of Kafr Nabl, according to social media accounts affiliated with the rebels.
The FSA and al-Nusra Front share control of large swaths of Syria's Idlib province. The Al-Nusra Front, internationally recognized as a terrorist organization affiliate with al-Qaeda, is not allowed to take part in upcoming peace talks, meaning that it would have to cede control of the areas for a ceasefire to take effect.
Station spokesman Hadi al-Abdallah was later released, according to some reports, while his partner Raed Fares was kept kidnapped in an unknown location. Fares was apparently pressured by al-Nusra in the past.
"Abdallah had used his Al-Nusra connections to keep his freedom but this time the jihadists detained them both and destroyed and confiscated their belongings at the station," the head of an FSA umbrella group Soner Taleb told AFP.
According to reports, the al-Nusra Front kidnapped the radio station's two spokesmen, but released other employees after putting them through humiliating procedures and burning FSA flags.
"Nusra placed the [FSA] flag on the floor and made me walk on it. After five years, they made me put my shoes on the flag with which I cover our martyrs," one of the arrested station employees reportedly said.

Photos released by social media accounts tied to Syrian rebels show a ransacked headquarters of an FSA coordinating center and radio station with "Confiscated by al-Nusra Front" spray-painted on the walls.
The "Radio Fresh" radio station and its two spokesmen previously reported on al-Nusra Front activities in a positive light and interviewed its leaders. The town of Kafr Nabl itself is known for weekly photo ops, in which participants are photographed with English-language signs asking the US to bomb Syria, while Arabic-language signs spout sectarian rhetoric.
Although ostensibly secular, only adult men and male children are seen in the photos of the protests, which suggests compliance with Sharia law, in which women are not allowed to be seen unveiled in public.
Past Differences
US involvement in training and arming rebels has already caused conflicts to break out between FSA units allied to the Kurds and the al-Nusra Front.
"The jihadist militants attack Afrin from Azaz, Aleppo and Idlib. Up to now, al-Nusra and other groups have failed to capture a single settlement in the Canton. We are going to fight to the end to defend our land and our people," Firat Xelil, a representative of the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces told Sputnik in December.
The SDF's alliances are unclear, as while it is said to receive aid from the US, Turkey, a US ally, is said to support its jihadist opponents.
"Turkey is setting al-Nusra and the other jihadists against us, in the interests of taking Jarabulus under control. Furthermore, Turkey is engaged in the training of armed militants," Xelil told Sputnik at the time.
The motivations behind the current arrests are unknown, though FSA-affiliated Taleb told AFP that the al-Nusra Front also disapproves of what he called the station's "secular tendencies."
The United States military previously trained FSA fighters and supplied them with anti-tank TOW missiles, although nearly all fighters in the program reportedly defected to al-Nusra, which also seized the supplied TOW missiles.

Alright, start by writing a letter to your local Mullah telling them to withdraw IRGC and Hezbollah from Syria....
Wait, they would jail you and then execute you for going against the divinely guided regime. Oops.

No , It says ask your Sultan Erdogan's brothers in Idlib and Aleppo to lift the siege of Fu'ah , Kafraya , Nuble and Zahra in which nearly 50000 people have been starving for a longer time than people in Madaya have so that the government end the siege in Madaya .
Madaya and Zabadani are under siege in order to guarantee lives of Shia people who have been trapped in Nuble and Zahra for 4 years and in Fu'ah and Kafraya for 8 months .
The terrorists are to be blamed as they have rejected evacuation .

Al Masdar writes it like infamous Ghouta chemical attack which killed 1400 people was not carried by Assad.
But this OPCW said nothing about Ghouta attack. It talked about Marea attack by ISIS in North Aleppo. Apparently ISIS fired one chemical shell which led to death of 2 people:
A confidential Oct. 29 report by the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), a summary of which was shown to Reuters, concluded "with the utmost confidence that at least two people were exposed to sulfur mustard" in the town of Marea, north of Aleppo, on Aug. 21.
Exclusive: Chemical weapons used by fighters in Syria - sources| Reuters
There were tens of thousands of 122-mm chemical shells scattered around Syria. Not surprising that ISIS could capture some.
Chemical attack in Ghouta was careied by huge Volcano rockets. Its whole different scale of attack. And such rockets have only the Assadists.

Nice excuse, ''ohh a crime is being done lets retaliate with another crime....'' is that what you are being teached over there?
Besides my question was some Arabic speaking member to translate the allegedly disgusting behavior, if true then those people mocking people dying of hunger arent any better than terrorists.
Anyways why do you need to go into defensive mode anyway?
