Apparently some countries serve as punching bags so we can send messages to OTHER countries...?

Hmmm.

Noted.

And the Left LIKES this..? How instructive.

This is sorta like that time Bill Clinton launched all those Tomohawks at what turned out to be a MEDICINE company.

I think it was EMPTY at the time (night).

Understand that no matter who used the chemical weapons, it is not right. Period. But Trump did the right thing, he Punished the Weapons used - destroyed them and the planes. Now Obama had many red lines that weren’t to be crossed, but the dictators did just that. I think this happening with the President of China visit, this was another show of strength.

Maybe... Or perhaps Syria also got what it needed politically. The immediate problem is over.

Excellent point. The Tomahawk as a "big stick" has worked when? At this point there is no difference in a hypothetical Clinton or current Trump administration let alone a significant difference than Obama's.
