President Barack Obama declared unequivocally Wednesday that the Syrian government was responsible, while laying the groundwork for an expected U.S. military strike.

Of course, evidence we’ve produced indicates that it was the Muslim Brotherhood rebels who used chemical weapons.

Retired Colonel’s Ralph Peters and David Hunt destroy O’Reilly in this exchange:
