"  While I clearly detest the guy, I have to give him credit for the way he handled the latest missile attack on the chemical weapons facilities.  He managed to do it without a lot of civilian casualties, and without starting World War III.   From all accounts he went through a logical process, listened to his advisors and generals, and acted like a President should.   Except for trash talking the Russians, which was really not necessary or particularly helpful, from all accounts he managed the process effectively.

"From all accounts"?  You need better accounts, Marty.  The accounts I read had Trump defying his military advisors, who believed the chemical attack never happened.  The US attacks on Syrian "chemical weapons facilities" were either fake or the US is guilty of war crimes for not reporting the locations to international inspectors - choose one.  As for not starting WW III, that award should go to Assad and Putin, who chose not to respond when rogue nations delivered an unprovoked attack.

I can't even begin to tell you how far off you are. I wish I could share some info with ya. However, there is plenty of imagery and information already out that discredits your left field thoughts. What I can say is that there are ways to get samples to third-party scientists and even international inspectors before the expiration (half-life) of the chemical. Ironically, the Russian/Syrian government requested inspectors are on the ground now and still being blocked.

What is typical of Syria and Russian use of chemical attacks is that they are dispersed via crude methods; i.e., artillery, barrels, and aerial spray. These methods are not very effective but can be pinpointed. Arial dispersal is preferred method but takes more calculations to avoid wide area dispersal. Following the attacks, explosive artillery rounds and bombs will follow in an attempt to incinerate chemical evidence. An armed perimeter is in place to attempt to block outside detection until incineration occurs and/or until expiration. At this point, any evidence must be in the form of body fluid sampling. Pretty difficult when the government controls the remaining operational hospitals.

The half-life of Sarin is approximately 24 hours depending on humidity/temp. So in roughly 48 hours detection is almost negligible. Chlorine is gone in a matter of hours. Because of the crude method of dispersal, airborne detection by aircraft is all but impossible.

FYI, these sites were known to International Inspectors, but Russia had blocked every attempt at the UN to set an inspection resolution since 2013, when Russia was to have taken possession of and destroyed all of Syria's known chemical weapons/precursors.
