U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley said Saturday that the United States is locked and loaded if the Syrian President Bashar Assads regime uses chemical gas again in the country.
Haley made the remarks at a fiery meeting of the U.N. Security Council, in which Russia and the U.S. traded barbs over the decision of the U.S., France and the United Kingdom to launch strikes in Syria on Friday in response to the alleged use of chemical weapons last week in Douma.
While the Trump administration has said the strikes are now over, with Trump declaring: Mission Accomplished! on Saturday morning, Haley warned that should the Assad regime use such weapons again, strikes could resume.
"I spoke to President Trump this morning and he said if the Syrian regime uses this poisonous gas again, the United States is locked and loaded," she said.
In what may be seen as a jab at former President Barack Obama, who famously drew a red line on chemical weapons use in Syria in 2013 but was accused of failing to follow through, Haley promised that Trump would not waver: When our president draws a red line, our president enforces the red line."

Good. This is our assessment. Read it. And try to imagine being in an area where barrels of liquid chlorine are dropped from a helicopter;
You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in.
Enough of the cowboy talk.

Drone Assad regardless.
After the fiasco of 0bama maybe Bashar Assad will wake up to reality.
This should be an interesting thread.
Hard to believe the UN representative is more bellicose than the Defense Secretary.
Yep - still lots of FReepers going all “Russian Troll” on Trump but eventually they will choke on crow feathers - and claim it’s allergies.....;-}
Support Free Republic, Folks!
Time for another false flag op.
I expect a lot with the IG report, etc.
Trump should have fired Rosenstein 30 minutes before the missile strike and nobody would have noticed.
> Time for another false flag op. <
Good people can disagree on how appropriate this latest US strike was. But one thing is for sure. The jihadists now have great motivation to stage a false flag op. All they have to do is be patient, and be careful.
Those guys - the jihadists - are animals. But they are not stupid.
Except Assad probably is NOT responsible. It isn’t in his interest to do that. I’d rather think Putin instigated it. And now that we’re crowing that we’re locked and loaded, it’s very likely he’ll have it done again. And keep stirring the pot.
Nikki Haley is either full-tilt crazy or on the payroll of Globalist Warmongers.
Ofcourse, we'll be living with real, actual sectarian violence in our own cities, probably using weapons supplied by the Chicoms.
Vice President Pence speaking in Lima, Peru live on Fox News just stated:
“Syria and its patrons will know there is a price to pay if chemical weapons are used.”
