David Brooks sounds the alarm over Trump and Cruz about six months too late:

Teddy Roosevelt’s grandson, Kim Roosevelt, had planned the invasion of Syria by the U.S. along with Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Turkey in 1957. It’s the exact same plan that President Obama has put into action since he got into the White House. Kim’s 1957 strategy made use of false flag events intended to fool the public into accepting a course of action they would have otherwise not accepted. The sarin gas attack in Syria in 2013 is an example of this. The US were caught smuggling sarin gas into Syria in order to use it on Syrian civilians.
