Vladimir Putin has now diverted warship the Admiral Grigorovich to protect the Syrian coast
Syrian aircraft took off from al-Shayrat airfield on Friday in apparent act of defiance
The Kremlin has warned the US it is one step from war' over Syria - but the Trump administration hit back by saying it would be prepared to carry out airstrikes again.
In the first direct American raid on Bashar al Assads forces, President Trump authorised the firing of 59 cruise missiles at a military airfield.
Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev denounced the US for attacking the legitimate government of Syria and for allegedly breaking international law without the approval of the UN.
Mr Medvedev said: This military action is a clear indication of the US presidents extreme dependency on the views of the Washington establishment, the one that the new president strongly criticised in his inauguration speech.'
Soon after his victory, I noted that everything would depend on how soon Trumps election promises would be broken by the existing power machine. It took only two and a half months.
The last remaining election fog has lifted. Instead of an overworked statement about a joint fight against the biggest enemy, ISIS, the Trump administration proved that it will fiercely fight the legitimate Syrian government.
But the US President warned he would do it again after unleashing a surprise attack on the Syrian regime with a massive show of firepower.

You summed up how I’ve been seeing this as well. Frankly, this one surgical strike may have actually PREVENTED war.
He needs to concentrate on repealing obamacare, rolling back taxes and immigration.
I agree. Someone tell us again what our interest is in a country that has been fighting each other forever. Why should we risk anilhilation of many millions of American people over what could have been another Gulf of Tonkin false flag.
We Americans are still being led around by war monger political elites who will call it a hate crime to make America great.
“It was suppose to be only 6 megatons or twice as big as Hiroshima.”
Little Boy, the Hiroshima bomb was nowhere near that powerful. It’s estimated it was about .013 to.018 of one megaton. The most powerful nuke in our arsenal today is about 1.2 megatons.

The faint of heart should be careful about using feints.
Idiotic move by Trump.
He is now the ISIS air force.
It would be fun to see how fast we could take out the whole damned Russian navy. The re-load and do same to Iran, ChiComs, etc
Ok ok, I will calm down. Peace!! Peace Through Strength.
Screw you Medvedev.
Get the hell out of Mare Nostrum!
I don’t want a president who brings Jamie Gorelick into the White House.
Trump just acted as a puppet of the globalists.
“When they used chemical weapons, they crossed a red line.”
When WHO used chemical weapons?
War with Russia would destroy our great cities and along with it the Democrat Party.
What does this look like to you? looks like binary chemical containment vessels in a bombed out Syrian bunker to me.
And if they are foolish enough to want to go to war with us, they’d better hurry. Soon Trump will have our military back where it should be, after 8 long years of that commie POS (deliberately) weakening it.
Making America great again is building America. Not sending thousands of troops to fight in a Muslim war. We need roads bridges, dams, INFRASTRUCTURE. Take care of Americans first. Protect Israel.
When the Russians meet steel they reverse. They are bullies and not interested in a war with the US.
We will see if they use sarin gas again.
If ANYTHING can be proven with President D.J. Trump is that he is the master of multitasking.
Now they practically know big bad putin helped gas those children now. Where are all the putinistas now? He’s a big man.
GO TRUMP
