President Trump has not yet made a decision to strike Syria. He and America’s allies are perplexed as to what actions can be taken to protect the Syrian people from their own government. The Syrian Arab Republic has a track record of using chemical weapons on unsuspecting villagers. The Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons is again being forced into Syria to investigate crimes against humanity. Little has been left to the imagination when it comes to what the Syrian people have experienced under Assad.
In a conclusive report the Organization expressed its shock at the existence and use of these weapons in the Syrian Arab Republic.
The following is an excerpt from reliefweb.int/sites/reliefweb.int/files/resources/N1734930.pdf
“The continuing use of chemical weapons, including by non-State actors, is deeply disturbing. If such use, notwithstanding its prohibition by the international community, is not stopped now, a lack of consequences will surely encourage others to follow, not only in the Syrian Arab Republic, but also elsewhere. This is the time to bring these acts to an end.

I seriously doubt “delayed” is the correct word. It is coming at a timing of Trump’s choosing. Let them stay up at night waiting for it. Fear it.
Missiles to Syria are just the waves on the surface
Below the surface, this is another political battle and power struggle Trump is having with the deep state and DC Fed.gov permanent bureaucracy.
Nah.
Syria has a track record of being accused of using chemical weapons in what always turn out to be false flag operations.
Lucy pulled the football away too many times.
Saddam Hussein’s WMDs are still killing people in Syria.
Good!
Thinking, assessing and looking for deception are where we should look first.
Why this truth was never articulated or defended by Bush is still beyond me.
Assad isn’t staying up at night in fear. Given a long history of false flag attacks in Syria, and the fact that Assad had nothing to gain and much to lose by using chem weapons in this case, I think wiser council has prevailed in the White House.
Assad is not a good human. But he beats the alternatives so I do not understand the people on this forum that want to create a another power vacuum in the ME.
That may well be their source, but we don’t really know who has them now.
The Syrian government lost control of large swaths of the country.
The most Syrians who seem to want to be “ protected from their own government “ are the radicals who refuse to accept secularism
ie radical islamists inspired by Al Qaeda - and ISIS - which remains active mostly in areas we control
Not that anyone in the West would really respect the wishes of the Syrian people who have rallied to Assad as the face of their nationalism
Its a sickness among our globalist dominated chattering classes
I’m more concerned with protecting Americans from our own government
McCain somewhere seething!
Once again fake news thinks they can predict what Trump will do.
Meanwhile, all, not related, but fun. Enjoy!

It doesn’t make sense that Assad would have a false-flag chemical attack on Syrian people and then incur the Wrath of a missile strike. It can only be the rebel forces the ISIS trying to bring the rain of muscle down to soften Assad up so that they can gain some ground. That’s the only scenario that makes any sense at all. Assad wouldn’t invite a missile attack with a false flag of this nature.
Reports are indicating that this attack is something along the lines of a measure of C4 against a barrel of chlorine. That’s not weaponize chlorine that’s chlorine What can I use chlorine is too on stable and not use anymore. So it presents a scenario that looks like it possible chlorine gas attack. If there was a gas attack they would probably use gas that is easier to handle by weaponeers and not a chlorine-based.
So buy 55 gallon drums of chlorine some C4 and the terrorist constructs a scenario that looks like a missile attack with chlorine gas when it has been presented by foreign INTEL services as an IED.
