Which way is the wind blowing there? Can we just send a few Nukes then send a text message to Iran?

So, could this be the new thing where Turkish backed Islamists have their nasty deeds conveniently “claimed” by ISIS?

Trump should follow his America first instincts, rid himself of the globalists advisers on his staff, do a wholesale purge at the State Department, retire the careerist, globalist generals and the Obama acolytes at the Pentagon, and finally reform the CIA to its former capabilities and stature. Any Americans maimed or killed in Syria made sacrifices that did not enhance the security or well being of the American people.

Most likely an attack by our own deep state proxy forces. In other words, planned by our own people and executed by proxies.
