Air strike using 60 tomahawk missiles was launched in Syria

Post by mmckee1952 »

A limited air strike using 60 tomahawk missiles was launched from two of our naval ships against the Syrian chemical weapons air base that control and warehouse the WMD chemicals that were used in the killing of the Syrian people two days ago. .

I just hope that our government had a backing of the UN. Normally, I don't care for the UN, but in instances like this, they can help keep Russia out of our hair.

I'm glad to see he's got a spine about him.

I just hope our foreign intelligence is accurate.

I don't give any credit to the "intelligence", but I just read an article that put a nice theory.
"the risk-reward ratio for this attack on Syria’s air field was exceptionally good. You rarely see so many benefits arise from one limited military action."

Scott Adams frequently displays amazing powers of observation and analysis, on his blog.

Didn't we (as a country) recently put Syria "on notice"? Or was that another country? I forget. At any rate, Obama just got schooled on how to do "red lines" right.

Whoever was controlling those birds kept them circling until they were all in the air and then they proceeded en-mass to the target air base.
Reports indicate that they all detonated within a 60 to 120 second window. :eek: :eek:

One failed and assumed to have done a submarine simulation.

I wonder what the air base radar operators thought when they saw a cloud of 59 fast,low flying, contacts coming in. :confused:

And, on this topic, CNN found a Syrian refugee to interview. The interview, I would wager, did not go as planned:

https://pjmedia.com/trending/2017/04/08 ... ses-trump/

I particularly like the part where the guy says that Syrians don't want to flee to the US, or anywhere else; they just want to stay home, and be safe in Syria. This, of course, is exactly what I want for them. He also praises the Trump administration, and pleads for more of the same.

This guy survived the '13 attack. His position should not be shocking. CNN clearly expected a different opinion from this man, or they wouldn't have put him on. This just goes to show what kind of a bubble the media elites live in. They just can't fathom that their entire worldview is faulty.
