Are we back in the mode of once again fighting for and against both sides in Syria?
Watch out Kurds.
I think the idea behind Trump’s action was this:
Whether Assad would use the banned weaponry at his disposal, or whether the ‘rebels’ overran the storage facilities and then used those same weapons to attack, the most logical step was to ELIMINATE THE BANNED WEAPONS and the FACILITIES that produce them.
It’s not a case of taking anyone’s side in Syria, it’s a case of removing the weapons/facilities that everyone was saying were not there.
Since people like John Kerry and Putin guaranteed those facilities were not there, not producing chem weapons, TRUMP simply made it true. They are no longer there.
