I suspect this is all for domestic consumption.
I guess that Trump turned out not to be as flexible as Obama.
The Soviets used to pull this “I’ll wage war and hold my breath crap” too. Maybe putin should quit while he’s still a tinhorn dictator in charge of country with a GDP the size of Spain’s.
it still remains my opinion that Russia is a natural ally for USA ... IF we are serious about wiping out the Moslem terrorist murder gangs like PLO=PA-Fatah, Hezbellah, ISIS, Hamas, AlQuaida, Moslem Brotherhood and so forth and so on.
if we are seriously going to do it, reverse Obama’s arming and funding and training of Moslem murder gangs (and Iran!)
...
we can do it now at far far far lower cost than if we keep waiting while the Moslems get more and more dangerous weapons
We will kick their behinds in a conventional war.
NATO includes Turkey. Does Russia want a clash with the US, Turkey, as well as NATO?
Does Russia realize they have made an enemy of Ukraine. That means the Ukraine might aid the US in some way (intelligence for example) as well as possible Military Intervention.
Right now, the Russian bear has made enemies under Putin that will sting (Ukraine, Turkey).
And some of those Eastern Bloc members have a memory of what the Soviet did to them from 1940s to 1990.
This may mean Russia may get their rear end kicked.
The B1 Bomber, the B2 Bomber, the F22, the F35, F18, F16, F15, F14, etc are more than a match for Russian aircraft.
None of the Russian aircraft are stealth like the B2, F22 and F35.
I am so afaid of all those aircraft getting shot down -- Russian aircraft that is.
Zero Hedge is RT with an American staff of three in the USA.
But...but...I thought Trump was in cahoots with the Ruskie's..???
Man...all this double agent stuff makes dizzy...
:)
I suspect this was worked out in advance to take the wind out of the sails of the supposed Trump-Putin connection. That lie is dead now.
Hmmm. This could be one of the great hands played politically. Potentially with one military action against Russia’s client state DJT may have undermined all the Democrap and MSM false narrative and vaporous conspiracy theories of Trump-Russia collusion. And there was Bannon sitting with all the others and we’re told there was no dissension from this action. POTUS takes advantage of the ‘official’ version of the chemical attack, and now presents as both strong and compassionate. Premature bravo, well done Mr. President?
The last thing the U.S. wants is a conventional or nuclear war with Russia.
The last thing the Russians want is a conventional or nuclear war with the U.S.

Ok ok, this could be a good thing... Which side now democrats are going to be on, eh?
There is still not enough information. We may never know. That’s how it is now with secret government and imbecile media. Show me that Assad did this, then we can move on and equally say Russia is complicit. All I see is grandstanding, sources and innuendo.
kabuki theater. Russia doesn’t have the resources for war.
It’s got a $1.8 trillion economy. that’s it.
