My thoughts and prayers go out to our servicemen & servicewomen in harms way tonight and to our French and British allies. :(

Indeed!
I just hope this isn't intended to be a costly distraction from the Comey Revelations.
I don't trust him, he's proven himself motivationally totally self-servingly venal.

Watching a briefing with Sec. Mattis and Gen. Dunford. It looks to be a one time strike at this point, short of Assad escalating.

Agreed. I wouldn't trust this president as far as I could pick him up and throw him.

I'm OK with a distraction. It may keep Trump occupied while Mueller and the US Attorney in NY prosecute their cases.

Doubt this will do little except help the bottom line of the suppliers of cruise missiles.

Sounds like England and France were gonna strike with or without the involvement of the USA.

Trump supporters rip decision to strike Syria

https://www.politico.com/story/2018/...strikes-523061

“After Trump’s first year we have: 1.3 trillion omnibus, no wall, war in Syria. Is Clinton secretly President?” wrote Lucian B. Wintrich, the D.C. bureau chief and White House correspondent for Gateway Pundit.

Well. May has Brexit and the Macron crew is still angry re the dismantling of Mikhail Khordokovski.
