WASHINGTON The United States and European allies launched strikes against Syrian targets, President Trump announced on Friday, seeking to punish President Bashar al-Assad for a suspected chemical attack near Damascus that killed more than 40 people.
Mr. Trump said Britain and France had joined the United States in the strikes, which he said were underway.

He said the strikes of precision weapons sought to deter the production, spread and use of chemical weapons, which he called a vital national security interest of the United States.

I saw video of washing off kids, with hoses.
And giving a kid some kind of dose of vapor to breathe.
I have not seen dead bodies. Have I missed them?
Chemical weapons kill people like bug spray kills bugs.
Chlorine gas can be made from grocery store and hardware store products.
At this point, I say ... BE CAREFUL Trump. Bush had a ‘Coalition’ of ‘Sadam has MWDs’ didn’t he?
“Hundreds raped, killed, and attacked by illegal aliens and we can’t even defend the southern border, much less deport visa overstays.”
This ^^ I hope someone is keeping a tally of how much is spent in this ‘effort’. It IS amazing that we have NO MONEY to protect American citizens from foreign invasion(WALL) but we have plenty to ‘protect’ Syrians 1000’s of miles away. What am I missing?
I wonder how many “baby milk factories” will be hit?
Remembering the Baghdad building that contained a multi-level basement command command center that was shown as a non-military target with a cardboard sign in English that said it was a ‘baby milk factory’ back during the mid-night Clintoon cruise missile strike.
QOVFEFE™
I’m against this, unless it helps the party win the midterm elections.
Isaiah 17. It’s about time. Maranatha.
Any chance Juans jihadis will be in the line of fire?

None-were now serving as the Navy & Air Force for Juans jihadis, the Saudis & Erdogans Islamist Turks.
Who the hell convinced Trump to do this? Jared Kushner? The man is an absolute imbecile.

Allegedly- with ZERO PROOF.
That was January of 1991...Bush was still in office...
Hundreds raped, killed, and attacked by illegal aliens and we can't even defend the southern border, much less deport visa overstays.

Havent given up on djt but this could be the start.....
This is not our problem and if they wanna measure dicks measure dicks don’t put american lives at risk
Fine with me. Someone should make one for the handwringing snowflakes that are siding with Assad, Iran, and Russia against Trump and the US and our French and British allies.
Not according to Trump, the US government, French, and British governments. You prefer to instead trust Russia, Iran, and Assad?! Seriously?!
Well, this certainly takes the attention off of Mueller’s deep-state coup...
Not according to Trump...
