There's a small chance Syria would use the chlorine as you describe but it's a lot less of a hassle to burn them out which I have seen them doing or to just cover the holes.
Except Syrian government has an actual tactical reason to use chlorine gas. After it's dropped, the stuff moves to the lowest point and gathers there while also leeching through every crack and being incredibly difficult to seal out... coincidentally where the "enemy" tends to hide to be safe from air strikes.
And since the Syrian government doesn't know exactly where the "enemy" is hiding or has the ability to sustain the losses to their forces that would result by sending guys with guns door to door, it's probably the "best" way for the Syrian government to actually end the civil war.
Not saying our side is guiltless either... sucks to pick a side when both sides are evil.
The problem with using gas is that their tunneling systems have been shown to cover vast areas, contain filtration systems for sewage and air, and also accommodate motorized vehicles. The Syrian government has also created networks of defensive tunnels as well to prevent the rebels tunneling under or behind their lines. They know to some degree where the tunnels exist.
Apparently, the British White Helmets are staging more chlorine attacks and filming them in the interlude. They appear to have a staffing shortage. Their members show up in dual roles as both victim and rescuer.
The rebels seem to copy a lot of the same tactics used by the Mexican drug cartels, such as beheadings, kidnappings, advanced tunnelling, etc. Same professional soldiers apparently trained the two groups of terrorists.

Chlorine is gaseous in hot climate, such as in the Middle East. It makes a lot of sense to explode cannisters on the street like the rebels and let it disperse over the civilians for maximum effect.

Here is US Senator Richard Black this morning going on record to say the US started the Syrian war and is helping ISIS/Al-CIADA.
What he hasn't said is that the US, British, France and most importantly, Israel, manufactured all the mercenaries/terrorists and funded them.
You don't see a US senator come out on his own and connect the dots and criticize these interventions very often.
Correct......but it doesn't make a bit difference. What he is saying is true and becoming more apparent to the American people every day.
How do you know it is true? Did you just pick one side of the story and stick with that as the truth? The thing is none of us know what the real truth is in Syria and who created ISIS.
I just hope they stop killing each other and am not more outraged by gas as opposed to bombs or bullets.
This should be all addressed diplomatically. After Bush and Iraq and Bama destroying Libya we should not be using our weapons to solve problems. They should used to protect us!

It's been exposed multiple times despite the media blackout in general.

RFK Jr wrote a lengthy piece on the history of the intervention starting with the Saudis offer to fund a US military invasion which was turned down by Obama on the grounds that the lies in invading Iraq made it impossible to get it through Congress or the UN. Republicans threatened to impeach him if he dd so without Congress. The British failed to get war authorization through their House of Commons.

You mean you don't know the truth. That's on you. ISIS came from the US invading and attacking Iraq.
wtf Are we doing fighting Syria who is fighting our enemy Al Qaeda and ISIS?
