"Going for the last time..."

For all those who are steamed up over the strike in Syria, just remember HHS loses that much money in accounting errors every month.
$100 million for 105 cruise missiles.
As for their actual impact, 105 cruise missiles are no more a deterrent for Assad, nor provocation for Russia, than the 59 cruise missiles last year.
It's apparent Russia turned off their S400 systems and let the US have a fireworks display.
Nobody believes it changes anything in Syria. Or the calculus employed in Iran or Norklandia.
It's good that the Persians have the largest empire since the days of the Sassanids and where 'Death to America!' has replaced hello and goodbye?
Also good, one thing we know about Muslims is they never lie or engage in deception to disarm those they hate, it is forbidden in the Koran.
Or the Saudi's are surrounded on all sides now by hostile Iranians and are genuinely freaked.
A “show strike” according to SecDef James Mattis:
I’m curious as to how long we have “known” that the locations we just targeted were chemical weapons facilities used by the Syrian government or its proxies.
Since Obama did his wonderful deal with Russia to destroy all chemical weapons, Syria shouldn’t have had any chemical weapons stockpiles or production facilities. If Assad did, and we knew it, I wonder why our State Dept and Nikki Haley didn’t make issue of it. (If they did, I missed it).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wisconsin_Republican_primary,_2016
The 2016 Wisconsin Republican primary was held on April 5 in the U.S. state of Wisconsin as one of the Republican Party’s primaries ahead of the 2016 presidential election. Texas senator Ted Cruz won the contest with 48%, ahead of nationwide frontrunner Donald Trump by 13 percentage points. Taking advantage of the state’s two-level “winner takes all” provision, Cruz took 36 out of the 42 available delegates.
It’s good that Islamic Terrorists are killing other Islamic Terrorists.
You accused me of supporting the democrap coup against the election of Donald Trump, based on a misreading of my post. You can’t get more ad hominem than that.
And you seem to still be unaware that your state had a primary in 2016.
Ideally. But the Persian Shia are currently winning.
A Persian controlled Middle East wouldn't be good.
I like being able to afford gas in my car and air conditioning.
Okaaaaay ...
When I see you snapping photos at Mecca.
Then you have a decades old personal stake in seeing the Saudis ruined and rendered impotent.
The House of Saud has been running a balancing act vs. the Salafist mullahs and a Shia minority for decades and trying to stay rich.
It's amazing that they've survived.
And if you believe the House of Saud is anti-Western, it would be much worse if the Salafists were completely in control.
Saudi princes like their whiskey and luxury jets.
But a radical Islamic Terrorist government controlling Syria after the "Regime Change" removing Secular Authoritarian Assad would be good, got it.
Hezbollah, the Iranian militia propping up Assad is secular, got it.
Yes, and our Republican-led congress refuses to buy into #MAGA. But yeah! SYRIA! “Mission Accomplished”!

Exactly. It’s another Mission Accomplished Con Job on the American people.
Democraps organizing an army of illegal voters to effectively destroy the Republic without firing a shot? Oh, sorry, we’ve got no time to deal with that. Big doings in Syria. We’re very busy with that.
Let’s call Jeb! and see what he thinks.
And the Western Deep Swamp Globalist Politicians they own.
I will like the House of Saud when it is a Mausoleum.
Like Trump huh? And the term you people have been using is 'Deep State'. You throw it around like rolls at the 'Golden Corral'.
I will like the House of Saud when it is a Mausoleum.
So would Iran.
Not what he said...
Twice in 2016.
Once in the Primary.
Once in the General.
I could have too, but the first time I voted in 2016, it was for Cruz.
A 1.4 million each, that was a BIG SPENDING event.
The longer this thread gets, the more expensive TLAMs become. In another hour they’ll be 2 million each.
