Sheesh, this could get expensive..!
Good thing we don’t have $21 TRILLION in debt, right..?
And that we’re all bullet-proof.
The incentives for Moscow and Damascus to win the war quickly have been increased.
Cool.. more targets!
Yeah, just make us out a LIST, kay..?
Sounds expensive for Russia, let them get embroiled in Syria.
Going to get sporty over there...
If I were Russian, and my primary concerns were a warm-water port on the Med and control over pipelines, I’d set up Assad and send in the land arms to secure the country. And, I’d treat the US CBW bombing as an annoyance and a necessary concession to what’s left of Western Christian values.
After Syria was a secure client, with my Med port and my pipeline control, I’d relax.
Is my view of the Russian rationale reasonable?
This didn’t just happen....planned and scheduled mo ths ago....Russians aren’t capable of responding that fast. Relax folks. Russia is trying desperately to save face.
At some point, you'd think Assad would say your Russian crap hasn't worked as advertised for over 50 years...
They aren’t gonna do crap to us.
Russians are not stupid. They took our President’s heads up on incoming missiles and cleared themselves out of the area. Reinforcements means only that they will have to clear more gear and troops the next time there’s a chem weapons operation in effect and the US fires missiles again.
They are not going to attack coalition forces because they are not stupid. Their only role is to prop up Assad which they are allowed to do as long as Assad stays away from chem weapons.
Russia’s stake is to block any pipeline from Saudi Arabia through Syria to Turkey and then up into Europe. Russia oil and gas supply to Europe is a cash cow for them.
Trump is playing the match exceedingly well. He’s just shown the Russians that America, France, and the UK are not afraid of them, and he’s put Assad on notice that he better behave. US missiles rule.
but did they bring enough Vodka , LOL
Not the least surprised if true....but Daily mail leans far left so I always look beyond whatever it reports.
“Russian reinforcements head for Syria: Warships laden with tanks, military trucks.”
It’s dumb for us to do that.
It’s dumb for Russia to do that.
If you don’t control the sky, you’re gonna die.

Now we can transfer all those troops in the ME to our southern border where the REAL danger to our Nation exists...
Think about it. Another way to put this is ISIsand Londonistan arw teaming up to fight Assad.
