The Latest on U.S.-led missile strikes on Syria (all times local):
10:10 a.m.
The Pentagon says a Russian "disinformation campaign" has already begun over the U.S.-led airstrikes in Syria.
Chief Pentagon spokeswoman Dana White said Saturday that "there has been a 2,000 percent increase in Russian trolls in the past 24 hours."
The U.S., Britain and France said they launched Saturday's strike to punish Syrian President Bashar Assad for a suspected chemical attack against civilians in the town of Douma outside Damascus. Opposition leaders and rescuers say more than 40 people, including many women and children, died in the suspected chemical attack.
Russia's Foreign Ministry says the attack was an attempt to derail an investigation into a purported chemical attack. The Foreign Ministry says facts presented by Russian investigators indicated that the purported attack was a "premeditated and cynical sham."

“there has been a 2,000 percent increase in Russian trolls in the past 24 hours”
What a amateur thing to say.
Appears the neocons realize the American people arent buying their fibe this time.
So they blame outshde agitators for their failure.
I think I saw a poll that showed 2/3s believed the gas attack was a false flag.
The American people voted for Trump precisely to keep
us from squandering oh blood and treasure needlessly
The Media isn’t going to be satisfied until we are in a shooting war with the Russians.
US Govt Deep State to America: you are either with us, or we will make up lies about you.
Syria said it shot down 13 missiles , ah nope ,Syria started shooting after it was all over ,LOL
What a POS.
“If you aren’t with us, you’re a Russian troll.”
Not really. It was the same with Ukraine. Putin’s poodles bark the Kremlin talking points of the day without regard to the actual facts.
In the case of Ukraine some here parroted the Kremlin line that the “uprising” in Crimea was entirely locals. When later Putin handed out medals to the Russians from Moscow who stole the Crimean parliament at gun point we never heard from our local Putinists on the subject. They’d moved on to the new Kremlin talking points without skipping a beat. How pathetic is that?
“Russian trolls spreading lies on Syria”
How does that manifest, exactly?
What does it look like?
I haven’t seen it here, do they have some other outlet? Facebook maybe?
Answer me this....how could we have destroyed a chemical warfare plant if they aint supposed to have any?
Now yes. Before we were accused of being with Move On, DU, or worse, the islamists themselves. Yet it turns out the finger pointers have been on the side of the islamists for quite some time.
“The American people voted for Trump precisely to keep
us from squandering oh blood and treasure needlessly”
105 cruise missiles is hardly a major event. HHS loses that much every month in rounding errors lol
And be certain, it was all for show. 105 cruise missiles could not change the reality on the ground.
Our enemies in Syria:
I guess I'm a Russian troll now.
It's easy. Because we said we did and we said they do. Now stop asking questions.
Why would they want that? Hardly anyone would be able to listen to them on anything from home TV to portable electronic devices if nuclear holocaust happened.
Her body language, while polished, betrays her - she looks like even SHE doesn't believe the BS coming out of her own mouth.
So now the Globalist
Warmongers are going to blame Russian disinformation if Assad wasn’t responsible for the chemical attacks?
I cussed at the tv when he said that.
the swamp is wide reaching.
