Current Affairs Syria...

Any Chemical weapons used, like 50 times?

The use of Chemical weapons is the game changer here, and Russia are happy to support Assad as he uses them, they could stop him using them in a heartbeat if they wanted, Russia's support for Assad should be on the condition he doesn't use Chems.

You are trying to adapt a situation in a one side manner, this isn't off ground tick you know?

We disagree on most things mate

The undeniable fact though is Americas foreign policy has always and probably will always be a shambles, because it is based on bringing 'freedom and democracy' to other countries, however only if that freedom and democracy lines up with America, otherwise it's not regarded as valid, hence overthrowing legitimate governments on numerous occasions, supplying arms to whoever is the current flavour of the month with them, and years later having to blow up those same arms when they regard their friend as a new enemy.

It's a dying empire, and like all dying empires it's a dangerous one, biggest threat to world peace isn't the Russians, or Chinese or even terrorism, it's an empire trying to hold onto what it once had, history shows that and America is following the same markers all falling empires do.

Hell strong chance that the Syrian government ones they had/have came via not Russia but a lot closer to home.

Trump trying desperately to get his reality show back on course.

It's so obvious what's going on.

Poo.

Hang on. The strikes were specifically meant to avoid Russian forces? We probably hit a load of F all like a year ago then.

I suspect the so-called 'chemical weapons attack crime scene' has been obliterated...cannot have any possible truth coming out, can we?

 

[Tubey]

Not sure what there is to disagree with here. Firmly stated that the attack is solely a response to chemical weaponry usage, not about regime change, not about targeting Russia nor involvement in the civil war.

I would have preferred parliamentary approval for it but at the same time I can understand an executive decision for it.

At this point it's done and dusted - the message needed to be sent regarding the use of such weapons, and it visibly has been.
