A Russian lawmaker claimed the strikes were aimed at disrupting the work of international investigators looking into whether Syria used chemical weapons in the town of Douma. "The airstrikes were carried out by the U.S.-led coalition consciously to spoil the investigation," Russian parliament member Dmitry Sablin was quoted by the Interfax news agency as saying. Alexander Sherin, deputy head of the State Duma's defense committee, likened Trump to Adolf Hitler, and considered the strikes to be a move against Russia. Trump "can be called Adolf Hitler No. 2 of our time — because, you see, he even chose the time that Hitler attacked the Soviet Union," state news agency RIA-Novosti quoted Sherin as saying.

One of these days (millenium?) the Russians will join the human race.
No missiles were shot down...bet on it.
#18....perfect!
Ought to be an interesting week ahead.
The Russians did nothing.
Didnt lock their radars on as they didn’t want to lose their SAM 400s.
Russia is a paper tiger who can only spin, twist and shriek.
Russia before the attack: We will defend Syria! Russia after the attack: There will be consequences, take my word for it, I promise, you’ll see, we really, really mean it this time!!!
Thank you.
I had not noticed that. Will look for that pattern of propaganda accounts on Twitter.
Talk about targeting specific problems.
I read that Trump spoke with Erdogan (not sure directly) before the attack. Wonder if it was sobering to him or Qatar?
According to the Military Briefing that is occuring now, no US Assets were shot down. He reported that Syrian launched 40 untargeted SAMs that were fired after the attack. So, question is do you believe the Russians or the US?
They haven’t had enough time yet to kill a few babies and put them on red crescent gurneys. That will come later on today.
Until I see confirmed wreckage of US or UK missiles, they shot nothing down.

It appears at least the Turkish FM received the memo.
Very well said in your comment #7. Thanks.
