    I don't buy it. Trump doesnt give a **** about any other race. What is really Trumps motive? This propaganda is a very weak false narrative. War to kill off the population?

    The Republicans (including Trump himself) were heavily against militarily interfering in Syria. Lay people such as yourself would have pushed the narrative that Obama was being a dictator and ordering military strikes without the full support of government and the people. How quickly people forget. Of course, Obama did make a mistake which was listening to the idiots on the Right or trying to get consensus support. He really should have tuned them all out.

    Definitely some "wag the dog" going on here. It's quite a coincidence that Assad gave Mr.trump a golden opportunity to distract the American people from his troubles. Having said that, President Obama should have done at least as much when that "red line" was crossed. I agree with Hillary Clinton. Hammer them so Assad will think twice about parading his atrocities against his own people before the world. The horrific gas attack against innocents was a message sent to the Assad's opposition. We just sent a message of our own, and not simply to the Syrian dictator. About time.

    Russia ok'd the missile strike. Look, I am sure Russia was pissed at the use of chemical weapons - it's not what they wanted at all especially with a pro-Russia white house. I guarantee you Putin told his little b**** that it was ok to launch some cruise missiles at Assad's military site to help their asset look a bit better in the polls and as a way to deliver Assad a message that Russia isn't happy. You will see that Russia will give a muted reaction to all of this.


    He did this because he thought that now he had a pro-Russia/Syria American administration in place that was more interested in fighting Isis and thought Assad was a stabilizing force that he could do whatever he wanted. I bet he regrets that decision now - not too much, but a bit.

    Wag the dog. Just because Trump hits Syria doesn't mean he wasn't helped by the Russians (he was) and that he might be complicit (we don't know yet). There is no conspiracy theory. FBI/CIA say Russia wanted Trump to win. Question is how much did Trump coordinate with them to do it.

    Marco Rubio isn't blaming Obama for this attack - he's blaming Rex:

    after what happened in World War II (us taking over) the world came to an agreement that chemical warfare and nuclear bombs are and will forever be off-limits

    just curious though if that rule will ever hold up if the US isnt number one

    I called it. The second Republicans come in office they are going to start a war against Syria

    while I agree with this air strike , i hope the asad regime ends without there being a war

    edit – I knew there would be zero casualties from this airstrike, and that it would just be to send a message because this country is too p***y to actually do something good for the greater humanity

    How do we know that it was Assad behind that gas attack?

    I would consider it more likely that the Erdogan/ISIS alliance did it.

    ...not for Obama. He needed to analyze for years and never even reached a conclusion. Analysis paralysis.

    Did you read my whole post? Read the second half where I said the tomahawk bombs are the easy part.

    No he went the hard way. Dealt with the Russians on multiple cease fires and removal of chemical weapons. Went to Congress and it was crickets for support from YOUR Republicans.

    It's ignorant to say that he did nothing. However it's a reality that it still wasn't enough and what he tried to do (removing chemical weapons etc) just didn't work.

    Trump is just a puppet. Pre-election you were b****ing about American soldiers overseas to bring them back. About how we need to take care our own country. You treat legal immigrants like criminals banning them and deporting them. Black people are being sent to jail or killed by cops and the flint water too. All of a sudden you do a 180 turn and magicly care about 10 kids dying in a foreign country?

    Anybody that places a threat to the US dollar magicly become a terrorist. Suddam Hussein wanted to sell his oil to UK money. Gadaffi wanted to sell his oil for gold not U.S dollars. Both of this people got killed. Are we the terrorist? I see a bigger threat in Kim Jong Un launching nuclear missiles every week.

    Today I got time.
