Before the day is over the Left will be telling you Assad is Pope John the 23rd and Trump is evil for going after him.

Assad, the Iranians, even terrorists, killed American soldiers, coalition soldiers, there is even good reason to think Syria did not really fight ISIS or fight them much, same for Russia, they only fought the rebels.

Oliver North was on Hannity last night, "when do the Russians lie", "when they move their lips", that is available at Fox News. So, let's see.

We might only be hitting their 'chemical weapons facilities'....Israel hits them all the time, if Israel does it, is it that much more of a deal that we are? How about Israel hitting their nuclear plant a few years ago.

Agreed. OTOH....Though this action may not be wise, it is time to rally behind our military, and give them our support. Even if that means tempering our criticism of the CIC.

Agreed, @catfish, we support our troops.

And, no one asked me or is likely to, but I'm against this action. I'm praying this is as far as our involvement goes.

At least... it was a coordinated strike with the UK and France, not just the US.

I am against it too, but vitriolic rhetoric is counterproductive right now. We are in an active war that might escalate more than we realize.

Meaning.... chemical weapons lab (thanks, Israeli Intel!) destroyed. Let's hope no civilians were killed in the strike.

President Trump on Friday announced that he has approved military strikes in Syria against the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

The decision follows a suspected chemical gas attack from the Assad regime on a rebel-held town near the Syrian capital last weekend.

Trump's announcement immediately preceded reports of loud explosions lighting up the sky in Damascus.

The United States launched the response, along with assurance from France and the United Kingdom, Trump stated.

At least 40 people died in the attack in Douma, about 10 miles east of Damascus, and over 500 people, mostly women and children, were injured and brought to medical centers. The attack occurred amid a resumed offensive by Syrian government forces after the collapse of a truce. Syrian activists, rescuers and medics said families suffocated in their homes.

Assad's actions, Trump said, "are not the actions of a man," but "are the crimes of a monster instead."

There was a story either last night or today about that. ATCs around the world were clearing the Syrian airspace.
