Tucker Carlson embarked on a nearly 10-minute diatribe to kick off his Monday night show, railing against those condemning the Bashar al-Assad regime for its alleged chlorine attack on a town in Syria.

Leaders on both sides of the aisle in Congress, in the media, in our intelligence services and virtually every overfunded think-tank in Washington have suddenly aligned tonight on a single point of agreement: America must go to war in Syria immediately. Bashar al-Assad cannot continue to lead that country. He must be overthrown.
Assad is an evil man they tell us, Tucker continued. Assads poison gas suffocated children. Pictures of the aftermath of that are all over the internet and they are horrifying. Assad is a monster. Thats the official story almost everyone in power claims to believe it.
And then, Tucker False Flag Carlson came out in full force:
All the geniuses tell us that Assad killed those children. But do they really know that? Of course, they dont really know that, theyre making it up. They have no real idea what happened. Actually, both sides in the Syrian Civil War possess chemical weapons. How would it benefit Assad, from using chlorine gas last weekend?
Carlson went on to make the case that its the same story they told us last April, when dozens of people were killed in a town in northern Syria which Turkish officials confirmed was the result of a sarin gas attack. That horror, described as the worst chemical attack in years, prompted Trumps limited missile strike on a Syrian airfield.
Tucker then accused those claiming Assad was behind the 2017 attack of lying, before stating that two months ago, the secretary of defense admitted that actually, we still have no proof that Assad used sarin gas last year.
