Russia’s Rossiya 24 news channel has revealed the first footage from the Shayrat airbase, which the United States hit with a volley of 59 Tomahawk missiles after an alleged “chemical attack” in Idlib earlier this week.

Pretty sure I know who the real bad guys are and they're the ones killing hundreds of children by literally processing them through a bread machine, just in one instance.

There are far too many facts that don't add up to this "chemical weapon" business. Do we have boots-on-ground or satellite verification? There are multiple verified instances of ISIS manufacturing and using chemical weapons, including sarin gas. Why would Assad do this after routing ISIS from Aleppo, knowing this is the one thing to bring international response? Why are so many of the White Helmet Civil Defense that was first on scene doing dual duty with al-Nusra/ISIS/al-Qaeda? Why was it reported that the U.S. was planning false-flag chemical attacks as far back as 2013? Why was McCain meeting with the opposition in Syria a month ago? I want answers to these questions and many, many, many more before I'm getting onboard this fishy fishboat of a response.

Hillary Clinton said yesterday afternoon that if she was President she would just lob a bunch of missiles at Syria. If I wanted Hillary's warmongering, Muslim Brotherhood-influenced, globalist agenda-advancing foreign policy I would have voting for that narcoleptic walking colostomy bag.

It disgusts me that the United States is back to serving as ISIS's Air Force, thanks to Scumbird McCain's false flag, and the PsyOp media. Trump got conned - neoconned.

Yeah. It also looks like we targeted the most robust part, rather than flying through the hanger doors.

Just FYI:

Israeli intelligence agencies are mostly extreme Leftists that hate Netanyahu.

If Russia’s saying it was ineffective ... it must’ve done some serious damage. I’ll wait for a more truthful report.

Sorry to say, The Palestinians are always ranting and raving about dead children, unless they are dead Jewish children with bomb shelters in their schools.
Refugee crisis around the globe started with the body of an Aleppo child washing up right in front of a camera.

Exactly. Show a dead baby to a woman or a president and they completely melt down and lose all common sense.

Melodrama much?

Please.... We blew up a few planes and maybe 6 people or so.. hardly did we put up a massive blow to Assad’s fight against the rebels. This was little more than a smacking down of a little tyrant, just like Reagan did with Libya when Quadaffi needed to be reminded of his place.

It was a just a friendly little nudge, that the pussy obama years are over, America is not a paper tiger and will not sit by and allow certain things to go without consequence.

From your article:

“Donald Trump’s national security adviser, Herbert “HR” McMaster, told a press conference the attack aimed to reduce the airfield’s ability to “continue mass murder attacks against Syrian civilians”.

“There were measures put in place to avoid hitting what we believe is a storage of sarin gas, so that that would not be ignited and cause a hazard to civilians or anyone else,” he said.”

Don’t see anything to dislike about this. Thanks for posting! :)

“Don’t see anything to dislike about this.”

Next week Russia comes in and rebuilds the base and puts Russian troops there to prevent future strikes. Nothing gained

The S-400 is a very, very good air defense weapon system. The system includes a 96L6E radar, which gives the S-400 an anti-cruise missile and anti-stealth intercept capability. Syria has S-400 systems, so it’s entirely plausible.

He is guilty of using chemical weapons, but so are ISIS and Al Nusra (an Al Qaeda affiliate) and Khan Sheikra (the location of the supposed sarin attack) is an Al Nusra stronghold.

they neither targeted, nor hit ANY chemical weapons stockpiles, only the supposed delivery systems.

Maybe, but at least it might stop chemical weapons from being used on the people.

-And I know there are a lot of debates going on about who used them. Hope more info comes out on that.

Makes me wish we never destroyed our ACLM’s. I wonder how they would have fared against the S-400 system....
