I think what is being worked on in the back channels is to have a military takeover in Syria with a more pro American stance.. like was done in Egypt.. it’s dicey knowing the Russians are there but they have been kicked out of countries before.. that would assure the end of ISIS in Syria and bring back stability and better prosperity for the people there.. also Israel would applaud it

Trump had no choice on this. He needed something to appease the Establishment, since they won’t allow him to govern, and they mention Russia non-stop. It’s Republicans that are blocking him too.

I fear Ivanka and Jared are running the show. The are plenty of warning signs here. If the stories are true and he makes McCarthy or Gary Cohn Chief of Staff we will know
the Liberals GOPe have won. Period.

The problem with kicking out the Russians is they have a warm water port there, in Syria...they will never give that up willingly.

I agree on him becoming too Establishment, but I am ok with the air strikes.

Oh come on now. Your “fear” is ridiculous and straight from the rumor generating crowd at the DNC. You cannot believe that.

Yeah. Sure. Only the “ignorant and weak of mind” would be horrified by little children and babies being gassed to death.

Oh, wait. That includes Donald Trump, doesn’t it? I guess his ignorance and weak mind earned him 10 billion dollars and got him elected to the Presidency, huh? Amazing, how that is.

Mr Farage said: "I am very surprised by this. I think a lot of Trump voters will be waking up this morning and scratching their heads and saying 'where will it all end?'

Nigel Farage's comments betray a level of naiveté regarding reality on the ground in the United States.

Absent the intel that the President has access to, the vast majority of Americans are perfectly willing to defer to the President's judgement in a situation like this. That's just historical reality.

The bulk of the hand-wringing tends to emanate from the professional punditry, armchair generals, NeverTrumpers, etc.—not the People.

I believe some polls—which in this case might actually serve as a rough gauge of public opinion—are already suggesting this...

Yes, nevertrumpers like Ann Coulter. LOL

You mentioned the professional punditry? They are overwhelmingly all in clapping and cheering the bombing. You have lost sense of reality and deny what one can plainly see.
