Even Col. Roy Potter is spinning his wheels on this one.

He called Trump “off the rails” today.

Well as metmom and I discussed, it doesn’t matter who started it, Trump ended it.

And the President did so without loss of life to American or Coalition or Russian troops or civilians on the ground.

Truly a perfect surgical hit.

And since the stuff that was bombed was illegal to have, who can gripe!

I’ve always been of the opinion that the destruction of Damascus brings about the “hooks in the jaws” of Gog. When you read Ezekiel 38, it almost appears that Russia is a hesitant participant in the invasion. Yet, they get turned around and march on.

Turkey right now is as anti-Israel as it’s been in a long time. Iran, Russia, and Turkey have that much in common - the hatred of Israel. Something is brewing and I don’t think it’s going to continue to simmer for too much longer without some major escalation soon.
