We’re really in a bad spot. We responded last time with air strikes after their last chemical attack and now we’re pledging more attacks with Russia saying they’ll retaliate if we do.

How can we not bomb Syria again for having done the same thing?

There were also no Russians around the last time we bombed Syria...folks on the ground believe they had forewarning from this administration.


What's the surest way to discredit Mueller's investigation? War with Russia? Yep. You think Trump or Putin give a frick about a few thousand of their men dying as long as their asses are covered? frick no.

Alas, Mueller's work will continue...war or no war.

Can't we just gas them?? It doesn't seem to bother many people on the left that much.

"We" aren't in a bad spot.

We should put this in the UN's hands. If they want to stay relevant, then they will agree to act as a coalition and back us in the decision.

Should Russia retaliate on us, then it will be viewed as an act of war against all other UN members.

What the timeline here?

Trump announces American withdraw.

Russia then attacks US which forces us into thinking about full scale war with Russia.


John Bolton assuming duties tomorrow.

It's been neocons and Democrats that have been calling for airstrikes against Assad and directly challenging the Russians. But now it's a Trumpian wag the dog conspiracy to take action in Syria? How schozophrenic are you?

Suffice itvto say Trump will be making a bad decision doing so but a decision that is perfectly in line with what the mainstream of both parties are and have been seeking policy wise.

BS. Bombing a few airfields and taking out the ability to deliver chem weapons is not an overreach here.


It absolutely is.

A nation divided will fall. I dont give two shits how much debt we can go into to finance a war or how powerful our technology is.

I personally have family and friends in military (one in intelligence and dealt with Russia directly) who have said our military isnt close to ready for a sizeable war against Russia or China with how stretched we are.

When you consider the fact the nation is as divided aa it has ever been since the civil war history has shown those nations fall. Period. There is no debate here.

#Syria #Lebanon if those videos ARE of an IAF strike force, the initial element will be weasels out for SEAD/DEAD sorties, with the bomb trucks pulling up the rear. Can't rule out their F-35s of course, they'd be expected to be able to carry ARMs.

Pretty sure that is for Russian domestic consumption, this is nothing like the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Lots unconfirmed:

quote:

@IntelCrab 4m There is NOTHING concrete right now...like at all. Multiple reports from pro-regime and anti-regime sources alike claim that unidentified enemy warplanes have targeted a hand full of SAA airbases across #Syria.


quote:

@WaelAlRussi 3m This is official The #US warships in the Mediterranean sea are launching a missiles attack against the #SAA A first wave targeted the T4 AB east of #Homs A second wave is inbound.

@Nidalgazaui 3m #BREAKING: Warplanes targeted Syrian army held: -T4 Airbase -Al Seen airbase -Al Shoaayrat airbase #Syria

3m
The nature of these airstrikes, if confirmed, are almost certain to originate from the #IDF. #Israel has a history of conducting overflights of #Lebanon on the way to regime targets within #Syria. WAAY too early to tell, however. Everyone in the region is incredibly jumpy, and all it takes is for a slight miscalculation to really set things off. But that footage of possible airborne cruise missiles is intriguing...and obviously opens the question of possible #US participation.
