This is kinda funny because that is exactly what I was thinking after this happened. In geopolitics, talk is cheap.

Last night Donald Trump ordered an attack on Syria. In less than 100 days, Trump has taken more action to enable ISIS than obama did in eight years.

Now that’s just ludicrous. ISIS is a creature of the Obama administration State Department.

This was posturing. All for show. Don’t forget Trump had that Xi dude from China sitting on the sidelines at Mar A Lago watching this show.

That fat kid with a bad haircut in North Korea? Yeah, he got the message too.

So why did Putin issue a strong rebuke? Even sent a warship towards our Destroyers? Fake outrage.

In the end, I’m of the opinion that this was staged and set up by the Putin/Trump alliance.

send the message to the idiot dictators directly. Let’s get busy where it’s needed.

and NK has starved hundreds of thousands and shot missiles over our allies and threatened to nuke us. We have no business in Syria and they are not a threat to us. Russia is their daddy lt them deal with it. Iran and NK are the direct threats. But I guess that’s too tough to figure out.

Could be. A theory I have is Trump gets Putin's cooperation in Syria in exchange for a moratorium on NATO expansion.

No. Hell No.

You’re advocating attacking North Korea and Iran. There’s no way on earth you can contrast blowing up an airport runway (last night) with the full scale horrors of war that would be involved with attacking North Korea or Iran.

But we are paying the price ... in fact, Western Civilization is paying the price. Look what Syrian "refugees" has done to Europe and are on their way to doing to the United States.

It may not be our country, religion or war ... but it is in the vital interest of the West to end this damn civil war .... and if this strike proves we've had enough and moves the players closer to the negotiating table, we all win.

I am saying you will die later from nuclear bombs if you don’t act now. Hell yes. When a maniac or a religious fanatic determined to bring about the end of the world threatens us, I take their word for it.

I am not equating anything with the airstrips. Syria is not a threat to the US, but Assad’s replacements may be.

The more political leaders support President Trump, the better. The more support Trump has, the more he can accomplish. The more he accomplishes, the greater America becomes.

Trump just elevated himself from “incompetent clown” to “Competent, but I disagree with him” in the eyes of many who did not vote for him.

Syria is not a threat to the US,

This would be true, if not for those pesky Syrian refugees transforming Western civilization in real time and before our very eyes.

This civil war needs to end, and end now! Hopefully Assad and Putin heard the message.
