So we have another President that believes they can simply launch attacks against other nations whenever the feel like it.

Can one really “retaliate” for a wrong done to someone else?

You can in MLB. If a pitcher sticks one of yours and he is pulled, pick the best player on their team and stick him in the ribs with 90+ mph. That said, I wonder why Syria wasn’t doing more chem attacks, seems like it is weird that they don’t.

Billy is an exemplary liberal fascist. What rocks his boat
is any violence or anarchy. He gets off on it.

He needs a little holiday in North Korea with dog meat for dinner once a week as his sole protein source. His bark is much worse than his bite.

Soon we all will order out for Chinese food.Womam who fly upside down over UN have clack up.

You could say it was good to do something like this to show the Chinese Commie President what might happen to Little Kim if he keeps on showing his “Big Finger” so to speak.

But of course what this action on behalf of the al Qaeda jihadist terrorist opposition in Syria tells me is that the nations behind the Syrian opposition (Qatar and Saudi Arabia) have an option on the use of the US military.

An option because our 20 trillion going to 35 trillion in debt nation owes something to them.......

Interesting point. Of course, in baseball, one knows who is on which team.

Trump has been rolled by the neocon war machine.

President Trump never wastes money or resources. This is an investment in the future of Israel, and pushing Iran BACK.

This also shows the Middle East that President Trump supports the Sunni cause. This is very significant because Obama supported the Shiites in Iraq and in Syria.

President Trumps decision also makes the Saudis and their associate states very happy.

Next its safe zones. The UN had better get on board with the USA. And so should the Saudis with some big bucks for refugees.

General Mattis is the advisor on this one, not the neocon war machine.

We are now engaging in the Art of War, not the “neocon” war machine.

Apparently Ivanka and Jared’s lawyer is Jamie Gorelick and her best friend is Dina Powell, who now works for the White House. Check out Stranahan’s YouTube feed for updates:

They reportedly tried: Liberman: WMDs Israel thwarted from reaching Hezbollah were chemical arms: Liberman was referring to previous comments he made after a suspected Israeli strike on the Mezzeh airbase near Damascus. (December 8, 2016).

incidental, read in the Guardian that Japan has extended support for the strike, also. (France is still hiding under the bed.)

Wait a minute. Assad and Putin are buddy-buddy.
The media tells us Trump and Putin are buddy-buddy.

So how can Trump hit Assad?

This totally destroys the credibility of the NYT/PBS/WAPO that Trump is close to the Russians and controlled by the Russians.
