Quote:Assad used the same air strip to send out sorties to bomb the same area they did the other day. So? Do we send in more tomahawks? Boots on ground? Will this end up being another failed " red line"?

If a message was sent, it wasn't heard. That nut just flipped the bird and sent planes from the air strip that was supposed to be destroyed. 60 Tomahawks. Looks like [BAD WORD REMOVED] poor results.

This isn't meant to be a pro or con on what was done. I'm just concerned that the Assad regime, along with Russia thumbed their noses at us and sent out bombing raids the next day. From the same air strip we sent this " message" to.

[BAD WORD REMOVED] up [BAD WORD REMOVED].

Did the US target the runways? Or the buildings? Was it Assad or a false flag? Is our intelligence estimate correct, or is US intel that poor, or did they blame Assad while knowing it was the rebels?

There's a lot we don't know. Maybe the point was not to send a message to Assad, but to send a message to other countries that the US will not sit by passively any more. Having other leaders afraid that Trump's dangerous isn't all bad. It worked with Reagan and the hostages, it worked with Gaddafi. There are a lot of pundits saying that this puts pressure on China to straighten out North Korea before we nuke it.

In any case, Trump has made a statement that he's not in bed with Putin, and killed the Leftist media's most prominent lie.

"Why should I give information to you when all you want to do is find something wrong with it?"
