Syria conflict: 'Chemical attacks kill hundreds' - Page 11

With military action momentarily off the table, is anyone surprised that the rebels say weapons are being moved?

Not saying that he's definitely lying or anything. But how does he know, from Istanbul, that his foes are moving weapons?

Maybe because his fighters and observers are in Syria, and him self only on visit in Istanbul...?

But you are right, and I said the same like yoiui before: The news must be confirmed, and the rebels have an interest to make that claim (do I have a deja vu right now, or what...).

But if it would be true, then the implications are most unpleasant and the consequences must be determined, free of delay and really shattering. No matter what the UN or Russians say or want.

I think the Israelis in that case will take the military initiative anyway, no matter what, forcing the US to either follow, growling or not - or fold cards and lose any remaining credibility that still is not destroyed in the region already.

Not surprising at all but as Sky also states....confirmation is needed.

While Syria calls it a "victory over the US", Obama said that the Syrian deal would hold a lesson for Iran.

A lesson for Iran...

Hm.

A lesson for Iran....

A lesson for Iran...

Unbelievable how disconnected from reality this man is.

National Review Online had a more precise term for it in their latest headline on the matter: they labelled it "Ineffectualism".

This is what he is being quoted as saying.

Quote:

"What the Iranians understand is that the nuclear issue is far larger for us than the chemical weapons issue".

Followed by this

" On the other hand, what they should draw from this lesson is that there is the potential of resolving these issues diplomatically.“

One step implying strength, and immediately weakening it again. This self-contradictory behavior we see all the time by him over this issue. The message is clear: indifference, weakness, undetermination.

Well, it's chemical weapons again, but this time we have a very different president.

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

Quote:

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.

First reports has the Tomahawks coming from two Navy destroyers.

This attack will do little to hurt the Syrian Govt. As far as the attack on the civilian population including innocent children, it seems human life has little value anymore.

So the USA has declared war to Syriah now.. what about the US troops stationed in Syriah?
59 Tomahawks ?! What kind of "airfield" was this?

Well that went to **** quickly. I guess we would have to tun in our bets if US intervenes on the ground and just keep the bases (and maybe a small puppet state in the coastal area?).

But I guess we atleast would be able to enjoy another show with a bucket of popcorn, seeing US getting stuck in Syria for a decade.
