President Donald Trump said he launched missile strikes on Syria in retaliation for an apparent chemical attack by the regime of Bashar al-Assad on a rebel town.

Trump said the missile strikes, which were focused on chemical weapons sites, would be carried out in coordination with France and the U.K. and he made clear that the U.S. is prepared to sustain the strikes until Syria stops using chemical weapons.

The president also blasted Iraq and Russia for supporting Assad’s regime, particularly in the wake of the chemical attack.

19 years ago, with no proof, the first PNAC war was launched

It's called "Backing Up Globalization With Military Might"

Fall 1999
Karen Talbot

The U.S. and its NATO underlings undoubtedly will be vastly emboldened by their "success" in ensconcing themselves in Kosovo, Bosnia and the other remnants of Yugoslavia—Croatia, Slovenia and Macedonia. We can expect rapid steps to further fragment the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (FRY). We can also expect the new mission of nuclear-armed NATO — intervening over so-called "humanitarian concerns" against sovereign nations—to be implemented elsewhere, with great speed... http://www.globalissues.org/article/448/backing-up-globalization-with-military-might

For 19 years, Americans have watched as criminal psychopaths in Washington DC murdered people around the world. Better hope no one decides to fight back.

I don't understand your logic. To wonder if this attack was a faint and ruse conceived with cunning is to lick someone boots?

Well, if your reaction is really an expression of a typical Western mindset, that their opponents must be primitive simpletons, then have a good luck.

Sun Tzu said:

"There is no greater danger than underestimating your opponent."

Arthur Schopenhauer:

"A last trick is to become personal, insulting and rude as soon as you perceive that your opponent has the upper hand. In becoming personal you leave the subject altogether, and turn your attack on the person by remarks of an offensive and spiteful character. This is a very popular trick, because everyone is able to carry it into effect.”

President Donald Trump said he launched missile strikes on Syria in retaliation for an apparent false-flag chemical attack by the regime of Bashar al-Assad operatives of the deep state on a rebel town.

True,after all,the Soviets and their KGB are known worldwide as the friends of mankind who would surely do nothing like that,huh?

Next thing you know,unfair people will be accusing them of having labor camps in Siberia,instead of luxury cold-weather accommodations for deserving Soviet citizens,right,comrade?

Because we "can" is not a good enough reason.

How about because we "should"?

In this case we should not. Why would Assad gas his own people only days after both Russia and the U.S. indicated that they would withdraw their troops from Syria?

Yes Trump is a tool of the military/industrial complex. He has made a restrained response which will be taken as weakness by Assad and Putin. Madam May is making much of the opportunity to ramp up the rhetoric against the Russians linking gas in Syria to nerve agents in the UK

Assad and Putin are very, very smart (they would not be where they are, if they didn't). They understand the situation of Trump well. probably they sympathize with him.

I wonder how long you would last in his place, I think couple days at most.

You have a set of templates from the cartoons and more cheesy Hollywood movies and are conditioned like a Pavlovian dog.

You cannot point to a country on the map or spell its name, but you know the character of the rogue leader better than his closest family. Strange thing, each of those designated rogues is IDENTICAL to the others. Saddam, Milosevic, Allende, Noriega, Milosevic, Putin, Kim, ...

No matter that earlier they could have had a different role assigned, memory is flexible.

Pooty Poot grew up in the KGB. Being smart wasn't a requirement,but if you weren't cunning you ended up dead or in a labor camp. AND.....,he rose to the rank of Colonel there before branching out into Russian politics and becoming the President of Russia,so there can be no doubt about how cunning he is. Or how ruthless.
