In the previous post I praised the quality of C.J. Chivers reporting for the New York Times. I'd like to retract that. After reading this morning's Moon of Alabama blog post it is apparent that Chivers frequently engages in tendentious argumentation on behalf of the West.
In the past I suppose I've been swayed by his detached voice-overs describing the technical details of battles captured on videos that have appeared on the New York Times website.
Moon of Alabama offers a counterpoint to the argument that the Syrian government is responsible for the chemical weapons attack on Ghouta based on azimuth data. This is welcome since the West has been winning the propaganda war so far this week.
