I just read how Trump's Alt Right fanbase are deserting him over the Syria attacks. Don't mean to be feeling Scheudenfruede (spelling), but...

Our Donald has entered the U.S. into a pissing contest. In doing so, he has put American lives and treasure in harm's way. That is what Presidents do these days. Even Obama, the Dark, did it professing how Peaceful he was.

Could you explain this comment.

The largest circles are indeed in the Syria/Iraq border region where ISIS lives. But thats because we are at war with ISIS.

And we are war with ISIS because....ISIS hates us! And because that they do terrorism on us (and on everyone else).

The chicken of them hating us came before the egg of us bombing them.

Or are you saying that ISIS would be as nice and as harmless as the Kiwanis club if the US had not bombed them first?

Or what?

Newsweek: Russia Sends Warships Toward U.S. Navy after Syria Bombing

Quote:

...Russia's Admiral Grigorovich frigate reportedly left its port of Sevastopol, Crimea, and headed toward the U.S. destroyers USS Porter and USS Ross.
...
Russia's 4,000-ton warship came equipped with Kalibr cruise missiles, one of Moscow's latest and most deadly high-tech projectiles, and was headed to dock in the Syrian city of Tartus, according to Russia's official TASS News Agency. The ship's movement was also confirmed by Turkish ship spotter Yoruk Isik, who told the U.S. Naval Institute's news agency that the ship had crossed the Bosphorus Strait only nine days after docking from a previous Mediterranean voyage.

Im sorry, but your post doesnt seem to make any sense.

I think what the're saying is that it doesn't make any sense for Assad to do this. What purpose would there be in ordering the use of chemical weapons?

Russia and others have argued that there were chemical weapons kept by the rebels in the factory the Syrian Air Force bombed, which Assad did not know about. If that's the case, then Assad and the Syrian government are not the ones responsible.

Thats probably possible. Assad aint always a nice guy, but he may have gotten a bad rap this time.

Israel bombed Syria last month. The air base used to shoot at and down Israeli planes was the air base that Trump attacked this week. The whole war started on the Israeli border. Trump is a Zionist. I'm sure it's purely coincidence that Israel got their revenge this week.

I don't know the answer for Syria. But here's some commentary from a Syrian refugee interviewed on [anti-Trump] CNN -- how would you answer him?

[CNN interviewer Baldwin] then queued up a clip of none other than Hillary Clinton weighing in on Trump's dastardly travel ban at an event earlier this year: “We cannot speak of protecting Syria’s babies, and in the next breath close America’s doors to them,“ Clinton intoned.

"Quickly Kassem [a Syrian refugee], how do you see that?" Baldwin asked, hoping for a big anti-Trump soundbite to ensue....

"With all due respect, with all due respect," Kassem began. "I didn't see each and every person who was demonstrating after the travel ban... I didn't see you three days ago when people were gassed to death...I didn't see you in 2013 when 1,400 people were gassed to death. I didn't see you raising your voice against President Obama's inaction in Syria that left us refugees," he said, completely deflating her expectations.

"If you really care about refugees, if you really care about helping us, please -- help us stay here in our country," he continued. "We don't want to come to the United States. We want to stay in our country. We want to stay in our country," he repeated. "With all due respect, this is hypocrisy. If you really care, if you really care...help us stay in our country. We don't want to become refugees. We want to stay in our country. Help us establish safe zones, he pleaded....

"Help us stay safe in our country," Kassem repeated again. He went on to address the president personally: "And if you'll just give me a few seconds just to tell President Trump, once again. Please sir, what you did was amazing. What you did was a powerful message of hope for a lot of people inside and outside of Syria. Please don't stop on this. Please. Help Syrians stay in their country! Please take out Assad's air forces so they won't be able to commit more atrocities using traditional weapons," Kassem said. "500,000 people were killed with traditional weapons -- just so people can know what we've suffered in the past six years."

I hope that guy got payed for saying all that, because it's worrying if he's that stupid. War is what creates refugees! Assad was winning the war and things could have been stable by the end of the year, but the US have made sure that's not going to happen. All this imbecile needed to do was look at what's happened in all the other countries that the US has 'helped'.

They should revive the designwork for the SLAM (Supersonic Low-Altitude Missile) and design and produce a modernized version of it for punitive attacks.

"The engine also acted as a secondary weapon for the missile: direct neutron radiation from the virtually unshielded reactor would sicken, injure, or kill living things beneath the flight path; the stream of fallout left in its wake would poison enemy territory; and its strategically selected crash site would receive intense radioactive contamination. In addition, the sonic waves given off by its passage would damage ground installations."
