You seemed to be suggesting that the shuffled Russian assets are DS assets.

Oh, ooops. I didn't address this one.

No. I was suggesting that the fact that Russia moved it's assets out of the target zones, suggests that the strikes were coordinated between The Donald and Pooty Poot. And is evidence that Russia "stood down" and allowed the strikes to take place. Which would suggest that Russia is no longer backing Syria to the extent that we thought they were. AND no longer backing Iran in Syria.

Which is why I say the cheese [Iran] stands alone.

Savvy?

Okay, I’ll shut up now. I think I ran everybody off with my big mouth. :(

"Savvy?"

Yes, don't let the triangle shaped cheddar hat fool you. We all where them here. And we Wisconsinites are more mature than most. For example, Trump got slaughtered here in the primaries because of his less-than-savvy treatment of our state and our fabulous guv - whose goofy-looking mug would be on a mountain here if we only could find one that is not made entirely of spring time snow. Yet we still voted for Trump in the general because it was the only mature option, even though we traditionally have gone blue for prez elections.

There is absolutely nothing special about the Ruskies stepping out for a cig while we bomb nobody and nothing strategic. Of course it was coordinated. Big deal, actions there always have been carefully orchestrated so that the bear and the eagle never directly clash. And, of course Bibi has Pooty on speed dial too. It's not a secret.

Iran is already active in Syria and has already attacked Israel from there. Not a surprise that Israel fights back for real instead of dancing like us - it is standard operations for them. It's not some distant Q-ouija board game for them, it is a matter of survival.

Anyway, I'm not anti-Q. But I don't see why a thinking mind needs to get out their decoder ring in order to see what is going on in Syria. Regular eyes and common sense will do just fine.

Russia is not going anywhere. From what I've read they are instead now shipping in tanks and more, heading toward or already at their existing base in Tartus on the Syrian coast. Why in God's name would Putin leave when we are promising to high tail it out soon?

If you are suggesting that Putin will stay there but now stop being BFF's with Iran, I'll admit that is at least a possibility in the short/medium term. It would be great if The Don could accomplish a NK-like cave-in from Iran, but with anti-Iran Bolton on board a military option seems just as likely. I'm not opposed to either approach.

I don't know if Q reads Isaiah and the other prophets. But as a savvy Christian myself I can say with confidence that in the probably-not-too-distant future Damascus is going to be destroyed and we can't stop it even if we wanted. Gradually or all at once and whether it is Putin's tanks or Bibi's missiles or both or Turkey or us are all debatable. But it will happen. And happen before the later and greater battle over Israel directly.

And we also know the Christians in Syria absolutely did not care for our recent dance moves.
