Assad's attention expressed itself in having combat strikes sorting out of the airbase just hours after the US strike.

And what exactly is it that should have been taught here for half a billion of bucks? "If you want to kill another 70 people, please bomb them over a period of three days or use a barrel bomb, or shell them for one week, killing ten per day? Just do not kill 70 in one strike again!"...?

Thats a costly lesson taught. Not for Assad - for the US tax payer.
