        Interesting observation: "Bless his heart. Moscow’s Emeritus
        Professor must be getting his fake news these days from the
        far-far left, out of orbit progressive websites. He says that
        the USA, under Gen. Mattis, has used chemical weapons in Iraq
        and Afghanistan. And that Israel has been using chemical weapons
        in Gaza!"<br>

        Here are some sources for Dale and others to

        no "fake-news," "no alternative facts," but <u>absolutely
          verifiable facts</u>.  Given his meritorious career with the
        U.S. Navy, however, one would have thought Dale would be quite

                <blockquote>
                  <p>The recent chemical-weapons carnage in Syria is
                    universally condemned – and rightly so. The gruesome
                    pictures humanized even President Donald Trump (“no
                    child of God should suffer such horror”), and he
                    responded appropriately.</p>
                  <p>However, Nikki Haley, our UN ambassador, had noted,
                    “We don’t know yet the source of yesterday’s
                    attack.”</p>
                  <p>And the UN is investigating. Former Sen. Ron Paul
                    and others suggest Syrian President Bashar Assad
                    couldn’t have done it. Thus, some wonder if the
                    “Iraq has WMD” fiasco is being repeated.</p>

                </blockquote>
                <p>Gen. Mattis didn’t earn the nickname “Mad Dog”
                  because he was using chemical weapons! Here’s a link
                  to a <em>CNN</em> article that explains where that

                <p>Doesn’t look like Ghazi has much love for the
