Does this have a chance of bringing US and Russian forces to blows in Syria? I suppose so. But I imagine the two will talk it out before it gets to that. This certainly is a proxy war if there ever was one. If anything, this is Trump having the balls to carry out Obama's threats that he had cowered away from.



Turkey blew a Russian jet out of the sky and it led to nothing..... I think we'll be ok

Precision Strike is a projection of force.

Tip of the iceberg sort of tactic.

Someone gassed them, we just said "stop it."

They'll listen.

So do these tomahawks incinerate these gas stores or do they just spread the gas all around the target site?

Not a chance. Neither country is dumb enough to risk millions of eventual deaths should that happen

The Russians did not inform the Iranians or Hezbollah who did suffer mass casualties.



Source nearby confirms Shayrat Military Airport is heavily burning right now after being hit, 25 mins ago, Syria.

Also the US Launched 70 missles not 50 as previously reported.
