Richard Lloyd, a former UN weapons inspector, who now works at the Tesla Laboratories Inc., studied the White House report and the UN report on the August 21 sarin gas attack in Syria together with Theodore Postol, a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

After calculating the possible range and trajectories of the missile used in the attack, the two men published their own report titled “Possible Implications of Faulty US Technical Intelligence in the Damascus Nerve Agent Attack of August 21, 2013.”
