I agree. Trump should launch a tactical strike on Moscow.
Middle East policy, USA.

(1) Keep the oil suppliers onside and the rest at each others throats while we continue to extract the oil and gas we need.
(2) Sell arms.

Uh oh. Statement from Russian PM Medvedev:
Thatâs it. The last remaining election fog has lifted. Instead of an overworked statement about a joint fight against the biggest enemy, Isis (Islamic State), the Trump administration proved that it will fiercely fight the legitimate Syrian government, in a tough contradiction with international law and without UN approval, in violation of its own procedures stipulating that the Congress must first be notified of any military operation unrelated to aggression against the US. On the verge of a military clash with Russia.
Nobody is overestimating the value of pre-election promises, but there must be limits of decency. Beyond that is absolute mistrust. Which is really sad for our now completely ruined relations. And which is good news for terrorists.
One more thing. This military action is a clear indication of the US presidentâs extreme dependency on the opinion of the Washington establishment, the one that the new president strongly criticised in his inauguration speech. Soon after his victory, I noted that everything would depend on how soon Trumpâs election promises would be broken by the existing power machine. It took only two and a half months.

What did Mike Tyson say about plans .
I doubt Assad used chemical weaponsâŚhe has the rebels more less beatenâŚwhy would he do that now.
It doesnt make senseâŚwhiff of a false flag about this.

Why would he do that now?
Because he is a murderous cunt who has done it 3 and possibly 5 times before with no consequences. UN resolutions against him have been vetoed 6 times by Russia and China, so maybe he feels secure they have his back.

Do you think Trump was justified so?
Is there solid evidence available that the Syrian army carried this out?
Of course, all military intelligence from all superpowers is freely available online.

- Yes, as who else is going to deter him from doing it again? The UN are powerless.
- Occamâs Razor, heâs done it before, the Pentagon have released the flight path of the aircraft that dropped the munitions, autopsies indicate it was sarin.
What evidence is there someone else did it?
Nothing would surprise me palâŚI donât think its out of the question to think perhaps this was conducted by terrorists within Syria who are backed by certain states in the regionâŚblame Assad and off we go again.
It doesnt make logical sense for Assad to do itâŚupto this point he was winning the war confortably on terrorists.
Heâs no saintâŚbut overthrowing these guys has been an absolute disaster.
Maybe it was Hilary the hawk!

The oil is almost irrelevant at this stage for the US

Em, it made perfect logical sense.
And that is a very relevant point. Another 5 to 10 years could see their interest drop. You can sell arms from a distance but need to be onsite for oil and gas.
You do realise referencing a Qatari funded news organisation on this matter is ridiclous?
9 civilian lives lost in that airstrikeâŚwith no proofâŚ2003 WMD ring a bell?
Human life isnt valued equally.

Do you think that the air strike was justified by the US?
