You always claim to be the smart one. The one in the know. Yet, your ignorance is astounding. I'm not saying any of this is true, but I would be shocked and concerned if our Generals didn't take into account all options in their war against DASH.
What's wrong with you? And again, this is your White House and all you do is complain.![]()

Cernonvich, a loopy-sounding alt-right guy who has been correct in the past, said that this "sarin gas attack" was just set-piece to allow the USA to send a wave of 150,000 troops into Syria, and that this is all being pushed by McMaster.
That concept - if not that number- was echoed (or perhaps repeated) by Bloomberg's Eli Lake Quote:
Senior White House and administration officials tell me Trump's national security adviser, General H.R. McMaster, has been quietly pressing his colleagues to question the underlying assumptions of a draft war plan against the Islamic State that would maintain only a light U.S. ground troop presence in Syria. McMaster's critics inside the administration say he wants to send tens of thousands of ground troops to the Euphrates River Valley.
... McMaster himself has found resistance to a more robust ground troop presence in Syria. In two meetings since the end of February of Trump's national security cabinet, known as the principals' committee, Trump's top advisers have failed to reach consensus on the Islamic State strategy. The White House and administration officials say Secretary of Defense James Mattis, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Joseph Dunford and General Joseph Votel, who is in charge of U.S. Central Command, oppose sending more conventional forces into Syria. Meanwhile, White House senior strategist Stephen Bannon has derided McMaster to his colleagues as trying to start a new Iraq War, according to these sources. ....
He argued that U.S. forces in Iraq would have been caught up inside a civil war had they stayed.
The cadre of former military advisers to Petraeus took a different view. They argued that America's abandonment of Iraq gave the Shiite majority there a license to pursue a sectarian agenda that provided a political and military opening for the Islamic State. An active U.S. presence in Iraq would have restrained those sectarian forces.
One of those advisers was H.R. McMaster. It's now up to Trump to decide whether to test the Petraeus camp's theory or try to defeat the Islamic State with a light footprint in Syria. Put another way, Trump must decide whether he wants to wage Bush's war or continue Obama's.

Polling data about air strikes against Syria:
Democrats are about as non-supportive of the strikes as they were under Obama, with 38 percent backing them in 2013 and 37 percent agreeing with them now, according to the Washington Post. Now 86 percent of Republican voters back the strikes, compared with the just 22 percent who did so in 2013.
This is a pretty stunning difference. Democratic views stayed solidly negative regardless of who was president. But Republican approval rates skyrocketed from 22 percent to 86 percent when Trump became president. This despite the fact that Bashar al-Assad's use of chemical weapons was more extensive in 2013 than it was this year.
The numbers are from an article: "Few Democratic voters back Syria bombings. So why do so many Democrats in Congress?" Why indeed?

Firebrand Cleric Turns on U.S. Enemies
Iraqi mullah Muqtada al-Sadr, who led murderous campaigns against Americans, is now calling for Assad to go. What’s happening here?

Oh, it definitely is. The concept "conspiracy theorist" is an invention of conspirators. 9.11 was a conspiracy theory. The holocaust was a conspiracy theory. Our entire history is a long stack of conspiracies.
Did you know when Victor Gollanz broke the story of the story of the holocaust he was called a conspiracy theorist? by Time, and the New York Times. They're not about to admit that now. And, get this: after the story turned out to be true, and the Nuremberg trials were over, the same guy releases a story about the Soviets exterminating and expelling ethnic Germans in eastern europe. And the same media outlets jump up and said "Conspiracy theorist" again. 1947. It had been like 2 years since they had admitted he was right about the holocaust.
He was, of course, right. Again.
Without the conspiracy theorists, you get to live in a world without spying, terrorism, genocide, corruption and crime. It must be nice. It's a lie, but ignorance is bliss.

Trump Unleashes Military Strikes: 59 Tomahawk Missiles Hit Syria - Live FeedQuote:Well, for sure you don't need a "live feed" but you get the point
As previewed earlier tonight, the United States fired a barrage of cruise missiles into Syria on Friday morning in retaliation for this week's alleged chemical weapons attack against civilians by the Assad regime, U.S. officials said. It was the first direct American assault on the Syrian government and Donald Trump's most dramatic military order since becoming president. According to NBC, only tomahawks missiles fired, no fixed wing aircraft involved, for now.
As AP notes, the surprise strike marked a striking reversal for Trump, who warned as a candidate against the U.S. getting pulled into the Syrian civil war, now in its seventh year. But the president appeared moved by the photos of children killed in the chemical attack, calling it a "disgrace to humanity" that crossed "a lot of lines."
So 60 missles launched, 59 hit the target. Any word on the disposition of the 60th Tomahawk?

Sorry, but I don't take anything you say at face value. Once you leave the realm of truth for any reason, you are no longer considered by me to have anything of value to add to a conversation.
I'm not saying mistakes aren't allowed, but Russian spin and fake news breaks it. The point is that I won't play part time truth, part time lies with you. ![]()
