Strategically bombing the airfield responsible for the chemical attacks is much different than starting a war or invading a country. Assads on notice. The chemical attacks and pile of dead children piled in the back of a van was seen throughout the world.

this chemical attack doesnt even crack the top 3 worst chemical attacks during the civil war there...and after worse ones than this trump was adamantly against doing anything in syria even targeted strikes...he kiled obama for even suggesting it...again his entire foreign policy narrative during his campaign was to not get involved in the middle east in any way...

not to mention he destroyed obama for even thinking about an attack without congressional approval which he just did

like rjs said this was done to show toughness on his part and make people forget that he is under investigation by the fbi for treason

this isnt even about the strike itself...its about an unstable dishonest unqualified wreck of a human being running our country

I'm sorry but that just isn't the whole story, SD. Iran and Russia are both backing Assad. Russia is a nuclear power and Iran desperately wants to prove that it's one of the big boys. If this was just a matter of us flexing our muscle to put Assad on notice that would be one thing. This is something else. It's ill-conceived, hastily planned and dangerous.

Will be interesting to see what Russia' reaction to this is. Are they suddenly okay with Assad being removed, even though they've been against that all a long? And if their position changed now, why?

(I think we know why)

trump is completely clueless and not smart enough to have some secret middle east order big picture...whats most scary is how weak he is and the fact that he has zero real beliefs on anything or core convictions...it took paul ryan two weeks to make him flip on health care and now its taken the pentagon a few days for him to flip on his middle east beliefs...hes worse than a loose cannon...he a loose cannon who is also a mental weakling...now that the defense and national security sectors know they can flip trump to do anything they want wtf comes next

In regards to Syria I could give two shteins what his comments were before he took office. He was clearly moved by seeing dead children killed from a chemical attack. I can't stand Trump but he was almost in tears addressing the press just now. lol at this being done so people will forget about the FBI investigation.

That's cool, more dead children piled in the back of vans then because we're afraid of Russia and Irans reaction. We didn't directly attack Iran and Russia. You really think they want to start a war with the US?

No, you're right, it was to avert attention off the stupid investigation into Russia.

[rjs246]

Your outrage is understandable except for the fact that I don't remember you talking about going to war with African nations that systemically mutilate their little girls or China who has children killed by the thousands because boys are preferable in a one-child-allowed country. Be outraged, I get it, but be consistent. Bomb one child-murdering country. Bomb them all.

has nothing to do with that if you think for one second trump cares about any child much less some syrian children then hes got you hook line and sinker

i wonder if he cried when children died in syria while a black guy was president...in fact what he did was scream as loud as he could that it would be a huge mistake to go anywhere near syria....the executive order banning children refugees torn apart by war probably is still wet from all his teardrops while signing it...i wonder if he cried when he killed the children during his botched yemen raid that he claimed was a huge success

trump cares about no one but himself...its unfathomable to me how anyone could look at his his entire lifes "work" and think otherwise..his comments the day after 9/11 about how his tower was now the tallest building in downtown manhattan come to mind

I'm not talking about going to 'war' with Syria. Using banned chemicals is a big farg you to the rest of the world. The US took action.

And lol at using Africa and China. They're not using their military. We can't just bomb some random place in Africa and China and change the course or send a message they should stop mutilating little girls or killing children.

[ice grillin you]

youre joking right?

[rjs246]

So which is it? Dead children or Assad giving a farg-you to the world? The response to one is morally justifiable. The response to the other is just establishing who is king of the hill which is something I'm awfully sick of our country doing over and over again.

And lol at using Africa and China. They're not using their military.

youre joking right?

Haha. Also this.

They're using their military in Africa to mutilate little girls and China was using their military to carry out their one child policy?
