I don't weep for the muslims in the middle east living under harsh dictatorships, theirs is a people that seem to crave as much. Religious leaders are oppressive, secular leaders are oppressibe, there are no "good" leaders amongst middle easter muslim peoples.
But gassing civilians is a bridge too far for me. I think Trump threaded the needle well here, frankly. People here are acting like Trump invaded or something and the seas are going to run red with American blood. He sent no troops, no promises of extra presence, none of that. He responded swiftly and harshly and now it's over. Issue is past now and Assad will likely not be doing this again. Back to the way it was before Assad tickled the tiger.
Are you certain you know who is responsible for the gassing episode?

Trump has some Guts!
America will now be respected for its red lines again ! Gone are the empty words if Obama.
Many here think Assad is a good guy because he fights Sunnie Isis...
However why are few complaining here that Assad is allied to the Shia Islamic Republic if Iran and their Hesbollah forces !
Assad is just a smokescreen covering up for the Iranian Islamists.
Iran will soon have the atomic bomb. On the other hand Isis have no atomic weapons at all... so... who is more dangerous Isis? or the Islamic Republic if Iran? Because of the atomic bomb, Iran is the most dangerous Islamic institution on earth. The second most dangerous Islamic group is Isis, because they have no atomic weapons program.
But we must fight ALL Islamists, i don’t care if they have atomic weapons or not!
