I wonder if our intelligence on these chemical weapons were the same guys that said WMDs were a “slam dunk” in Iraq?
I certainly don’t trust our intelligence community anymore. I am to the point to where I question everything.

In case nobody noticed in the excitement, I'd like to point out that Syria's super-dupper impenetrable S-300 missile defense system didn't seem to work.

I am to the point to where I question everything. I too question everything ... like who is talking to whom, and I suspect mountains of intel are being collected as we speak... Given what Trump now knows about the 'intel community' he surely will use those tools to 'our' advantage.

So...now Trump proves he’s as unhinged as the left has been hoping for. He strikes a nation that perpetrated nothing upon the US, does not inform congress, and starts firing missiles into Syria for nothing but POLITICAL reasons. He didn’t drain the swamp. He’s now become the swamp.

Reports by Bryan Suits earlier tonite on KFI in California seemed to suggest a few things.
This was a coordinated strike, with the Russians informed and complicit.
Aim was to remove Assad from power, while keeping the regime intact.
Another thing that was touched on, briefly was pretty interesting.
Part of the deal had something to do with Snowden. (possibly whether we would or would not prosecute him).

And all while he’s at dinner with Xi. He can look at him and say; “Now you take care of North Korea.”
