Trump Attacks Putin for Backing ‘Animal Assad’ After Syria Chemical Weapons Reports

[Covertibility]

Are the Americans gassing the Syrians again?
I'm starting to see that Assad is now the new Saddam Hussein and must be taken out.


I also saw this, supposedly from Russian Internet Research Agency in St. Petersburg:

Is this a war of the pipelines?

Easy enough to piss and moan about this, point fingers, but what is the move when there is no good move? Every choice has consequences and they're all bad.

First step is recognizing that not every problem in the world is our concern. War mongers like Lindsey Graham and McCain call that "failing to lead." Others call it common sense.

At a sports bar yesterday, I saw an interview on CNN of a victim of a gas attack. He was obviously given a script to read. This artificial and well-rehursed gas victim (from an gas attack several years ago) was apparently used to garner sympathy for a response to the gas attack. This whole thing smells of a false flag operation.

Men of peace such as Gandi, MLK, jr., and John Lennon has been executed. Men of war stock in trade are weapons and they certaintly know how to use them.

Would love to see a chemical analysis of the chemical involved in the attack. My guess is that it is most likely Israeli.

Such an obvious false flag.

True, and I agree, but that doesn't answer the question. What to do now? Doing nothing has consequences. Doing something, however large or small the response, will have consequences. Decades of sticking our noses where it doesn't belong, followed by taking a passive/aggressive position time and again, we are now up against the proverbial rock and hard place. Add in the political shots which both left and right will take regardless of what Trump does, and the only sure thing is the good ole U.S.A. takes the brunt of the criticism while being the only ones, once again, doing the heavy lifting.

My answer is based on how many troops I was prepared to lose in Syria and how much money I wanted to spend there. Zero on both counts.

Trump is complaining they are breaking into his attorneys offices while he's doing serious things like planning a response to the Syrian gas propaganda.

Unless Trump is playing some 4D chess that i don't know about, seems like poetic justice to me. Trump trying to oust a democratically elected leader of another nation (falling for deep state and/or Israeli traps, with no evidence)...while his own deep state trys to oust him from office under the guise of foreign interference (with no evidence)...while Trump interferes with a foreign government, while his own deep state interferes in his own election.

Maybe if Trump would stay true to his campaign promises and stop meddling in other governments, he might have the focus to stop the meddling in his own government, rather than complain about Jeff "weed" Sessions and his side kick Rosenstoned.
