Start of WW3? U.S. strikes Syrian military airfield in first direct assault on Bashar al-Assad’s government

in #news7 years ago

The U.S. military launched approximately 50 cruise missiles at a Syrian military airfield late on Thursday, in the first direct American assault on the government of President Bashar al-Assad since that country’s civil war began six years ago.

The operation, which the Trump administration authorized in retaliation for a chemical attack killing scores of civilians this week, dramatically expands U.S. military involvement in Syria and exposes the United States to heightened risk of direct confrontation with Russia and Iran, both backing Assad in his attempt to crush his opposition.

Trump is playing directly into the globalists plans of taking over Syria. Why would he provoke such an attack when It's been proven all these other chemical attacks were done by ISIS. ISIS even admitted it used chemical weapons and videoed themselves launching the mortars.

This is a very dumb move by Trump. I can't believe he's that dumb to actually attack the legitimate government of Syria. I wonder how the Russians are going to deal with this. Who knows if we killed any Russians at this air base. I would expect Russia to respond to this by shooting down US planes then God only knows what will happen after that.

Very very disappointed in Trump right now.

Sort:  

and John McCain is already dancing a jig.

McCain the rest of the Neo-cons are probably getting ready to false flag those ships that launched the cruise missles and blame it on the Russians.

Heheh.... and when you say Neo-Cons.... the Neo-Cons arose out of the PNAC group and there are indicators that they infiltrated both major political parties. So I consider some of the Democrats that have been proven to be warhawks to be Neo-Cons as well.

I was talking with a friend about this... I haven't really researched much.

All I could tell him was the following:

Assad hasn't really given indicators he is an idiot.
Use of Chemical Weapons is immediate justification/motive for us or other super powers to invade.

If Assad did this then he is an IDIOT and it is tantamount to Suicide.

So considering that I don't see this attack as beneficial to him...

Well who benefits.... the John McCains', Lindsey Grahams, and other people that were beating war drums against anyone they could.

It is interesting that this occurred right after our stance changed to letting the Syrians decide their presidency...

days later there is a gas attack...

using gas is like saying "Hey, super power I want you to come kick the shit out of me!"

So Assad is either an idiot... which I haven't seen indicators of that prior to now, or this very potentially could have been a false flag.

It certainly wouldn't be even close to the first false flag the U.S. has been involved with, many which have been declassified and proven.

In the last gas attack (which ISIS claimed responsibility for) he was forced to give up all his chemical weapons or face US air strikes. So he's know the consequences of such actions. Most likely a false flag and Trump took the bait.

I saw reports stating at least one Russian pilot killed along with a few infantry and Russian jets destroyed. Everyone waiting for Putin's response.

Nice report BTW
