This is a keen insight that you have seen intuitively, that neatly explains how this can be done without information spreading into the wrong hands who might leak the information to others in government, or even to the press, or UN watchdogs. There are always spies about, lurking about, seeking information about political intrigues, the workings of governments and their military, and will pay for useful intelligence. So, secrecy is always a precious commodity that is difficult to maintain. Each government scrutinizes the opposition heavily, and uses every resource it can command to track what others are doing, to understand and, if possible, influence their sources of supply, their supporters and allies, and the command and control operations, to infiltrate their information links, and, in some cases, to sabotage things through cyber attacks that may not only disrupt but insert false instructions. This is the kind of gamesmanship ongoing in the military and intelligence communities, working both in concert and in opposition to one another, as the case may be. In this instance, with the whole world watching and so much at stake politically, as well as militarily, being able to carry this out without any provable links to the United States was of utmost importance to maintain the covert responsibility for what took place as a means of implicating the Assad regime and, by extension, their Soviet compatriots and supporters, in these dark deeds.
So, secrecy was paramount and what better tool to use than the Secret Space Program, capable of conducting such a mission with cloaked vessels and leave no trace back to the U.S. or the intelligence agencies, directly. This we did leave open as a possibility, but only vaguely in our prior discussion, stating it was military units under the control of the intelligence agencies. You were able to reason accurately that while there are spies and teams of military-style operatives who can carry out smuggling, intelligence gathering, assassinations, and various types of sabotage of military installations or civilian targets involved with high-value operations in support of enemy governments and military activities, the conduct of a war-level operation is more demanding, especially when done under the noses of opposing armies and military surveillance of all kinds, including sophisticated radar scanning and many observers on the ground, as well, looking for trouble and keeping a close vigil for unexpected maneuvers. This was neatly handled by turning to the Secret Space Program or as we prefer to call it the Mercenary Army Program. And that designation is fully borne out by the example here, as this was a military-style operation from first to last, and one of heinous purpose and consequences in being a direct violation of international law, to use chemical weapons and do so, even more grievously, against civilian targets.
This series of operations has been surrounded by many types of disinformation designed to confound and confuse investigators probing the parties responsible and looking for evidence to support their theories. This will make it quite difficult to mount a convincing case and this can always be expected because so much is at stake. There will be few, if any, traces linking the United States government or the CIA to such operations directly. So, this keeps the game going and the United States can plead innocence and point the fingers at the Syrians without any hesitation because they cannot prove or disprove the true nature of what happened and this puts them at a great disadvantage. This, after all, is the purpose—to ramp up pressure and public opinion arguing for greater military involvement and greater destruction as a means of punishing the accused wrongdoers who, in fact, are entirely innocent and desperately wanting to prove this, but cannot.
