Syrian regime drops chemical weapons on...ONE MAN--according to Reuters and WP citing "opposition activists"

I am not making this up.  In fact, sometimes Western media don't report it, but Syrian rebels and Saudi/Qatari media reports attacks by chemical weapons almost daily.  Here, the Washington Post reports on a chemical attack on ONE MAN: "Opposition activists again accused President Bashar al-Assad’s forces of using poison gas in Syria’s civil war, showing footage Thursday of an apparently unconscious man being treated by medics.

The alleged attack on the Jobar neighborhood of Damascus comes a week after the Syrian government sent a letter to the United Nations claiming that it had evidence that rebel groups were planning a toxic gas attack in the same area.

Reuters could not independently verify the footage or the claims because of security restrictions on reporting in Syria.

Activists from the opposition Jobar Revo group posted a video on YouTube of a man being treated with oxygen and being injected by medics. A voice off-screen said Thursday’s date and declared that there had been “a
poison attack in Jobar."" That sounds credible, don't you think?
