Where did he go?
President Trump never announces his military plans. The fact that he is saying this tells me it will not happen.
I think we are okay.
Bolton in office 4 days and no war yet. Well maybe day 5 will be different. Only the other neocons will know since they have the president on a chain.
If President Trump’s definition of Assad as a “Gas Killing Animal” is based on those videos released over the weekend, let me quote from Peter Hitchens February 25th column.
“Just bear in mind as you read the latest propaganda from Syria-always beautifully composed pictures of wounded children in the arms of gentle, unarmed young men-that the “rebels” and “activists” in the suburbs of Damascus are the people we used to call Al Qaeda. That is, they are the ones who blew up the Twin Towers. But Al Qaeda has now got some very good spin doctors, and they’re trying to spin you. I urge you to resist”
I guess Trump isn’t resisting because the Saudi backers of the Al Qaeda “gas attack victim videos” were his buddies doing the “sword dance” when he visited last year.
And the Saudi backers are investing in American infrastructure and buying American weapons.
So the “Foreign Legion of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia” led by Commander in Chief Donald J. Trump is about to unleash its missiles on Syria.
May the Lord have mercy.........

I hope he holds off.
Liberals will scream “wagging the dog”.
Clintonesque behavior.
This sounds somehow familiar?
Someone used WMDs and then they didn’t.
Someone supported the President’s actions and then they didn’t.
The Neocons must be celebrating today.
Where did he go?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNVkEi9LKfI It is not the time to rush to war.
Why should we care what Syria does or doesn’t do? Dealing with Islam has no good choices.
Sounds like whatever the ploy is by whomever launched a gas attack is unknown by all…except they who launched it.
Was it Assad? The Russians? Deep State US operatives?
Lots of people here at FR and elsewhere are flying off the handle but no one really knows the whole truth.
I’ll back Trump on this until there is better intelligence.
Okay, I get it. Buckle-under to the Neo-Cons and make war in the Mid East while you let the Deep State/Media/GOPe run all over you.
I read you loud and clear, Mr. Trump.
I honestly don’t believe the President is aware of the massive resistance to this action within his base. He is being told that bombing Syria plays well with Americans. That is a complete lie!
There is nothing in Syria (and especially not Jihadist terrorist false flags) worth risking a war over with Russia. Nothing.
What I want to know is why would Assad have done this, especially right now? It makes no sense.
We should have not involved ourselves with Afghanistan. We should not have involved ourselves with Iraq. We should have not involved ourselves with the problems between Israel and the "Palestinians". That one especially. It seems that every President is drawn like a moth to flame with hope that he will be the one who brings about lasting peace between those two and it only ends up as futile and wasted an effort as ever.
We should not involves ourselves with Syria either.
Very nearly everyone in that region is hellbent on wiping out everyone else. The exceptions seem to be Israel, Egypt and to a large extent Jordan. And the misbehavior of their neighbors obligates them to be more on their toes defensively than proportionally even the United States.
Let 'em hash all of this out on their own. Sometimes you have to leave someone alone to face the consequences of his or her own misbehavior. This is no different. Leave them alone and give them what they really want. Consider it "toughlove". And keep us the hell out of their mess.
This is not a big deal.
There should only be one missile:
GBU-57A/B Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP)
The largest Bunker Buster in the world, right down the palace chimney of Assad.
Out of character to warn of pending missile attack. If true look at it as the Syrian proving ground for the worthiness of US missile upgrades vs Russian state of the art S4 anti-missile systems. But I wouldn’t be surprised if Trump does something completely different.

Much of the bad blood with Russia is caused by the Fake & Corrupt Russia Investigation, headed up by the all Democrat loyalists, or people that worked for Obama. Mueller is most conflicted of all (except Rosenstein who signed FISA & Comey letter). No Collusion, so they go crazy!
Yet you want to go to war with Russia? Help me understand.
Dead Russian salute
