BREAKING: US Launches Tomahawks Into Syria

[Pizzo]

So basically this was just a show of force, and Trump isn't going to do anything else.

It's an act of war, and would be viewed as such if some foreign nation launched 60 missiles on our soul. It's now out of the US's hands how far this will escalate.

But he shouldn't have done anything in the first place.

Congress needs to meet NOW before this goes any further.

They will do the right thing, you can bet.

yup, he just needed to show he'd pull the trigger

Wait, did you forget the sarc tag?

Just had to unconstitutionally bomb a sovereign nation??!?!

You're all just falling for msm and Soros propaganda. No evidence that we actually bombed them/sarcasm

I wonder if Danno still thinks this is fake news?

Not true. Russia doesn't want war, and Syria is impotent. So long as Trump switches to diplomatic measures, escalation is off the table for now.

Yay, more 4D Chess from Drumpf! The military genius who ducked service with 5 deferments is on the case!

 

[Krugminator2]

Unbiased press.

I wonder what Russia's response to Ukraine will be after this?

Before I thought maybe you are retarded, now I know you are trolling. Phew!!

They are over a million each, so more like 100 million. I wish American lives were worth that much to our government.

Aren't we used to it by now?

I am done with Trump. At least no more excuses for him. W.e is good I will support. W.e is bad no benefit of the doubt. He messed up. Here is to hoping other nations have smarter leaders.

The operation, which the Trump administration authorized in retaliation for a chemical attack killing scores of civilians this week, dramatically expands U.S. military involvement in Syria and exposes the United States to heightened risk of direct confrontation with Russia and Iran, both backing Assad in his attempt to crush his opposition.

President Trump said the strike was in the “vital national security interest” of the United States and called on “all civilized nations to join us in seeking to end the slaughter and bloodshed in Syria. And also to end terrorism of all kinds and all types.”

“We ask for God’s wisdom as we face the challenge of our very troubled world,” he continued. “We pray for the lives of the wounded and for the souls of those who have passed and we hope that as long as America stands for justice then peace and harmony will in the end prevail.”

The missiles were launched from two Navy destroyers — the USS Ross and USS Porter — in the eastern Mediterranean. They struck an airbase called Shayrat in Homs province, which is the site from which the planes that conducted the chemical attack in Idlib are believed to have originated. The targets included the runway as well as aircraft, hangars and fuel.

They will do the right thing, you can bet.

It worked in 2013. Obama backed off because the public outcry was so great that Congress was afraid to support it.

It's possible from time to time to pressure the weasels into doing the right thing in spite of themselves.

It's certainly worth an attempt.
