[Surfinn]

God help us all. I hope there are no civilian deaths

 

[Vas]

Need a distraction, fat idiot?

Remember that photo of the Mar-a-Lago situation room before President Trump ordered a missile strike on Syria a year ago? Nine out of 15 of those people have left the White House.

Sam Vinograd @sam_vinograd

The supposedly imminent strikes are literally just multimillion or billion dollar plumes of smoke. Specific mission is to punish CW use and deter further use. But regime has moved valuable targets Bc had so much lead time.

Who led the private diplomatic outreach to Iran and Russia - SecState nominee Pompeo? Have to have had private comms with them about moving their guys out of the way. Usually @StateDept would lead

well, no, it would be the consistent application of policy (whether you think it's bad or not) considering the US attacked the last time a large-scale chem strike occurred.

 

[kickz]

War time :(

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

Here we go.

 

[Septy]

Trump ordered missile strikes

 

[stew]

Fuck you!

If I recall correctly, they were mad the last time he did something like this.

 

[Ashdroid]

Just said he's ordered strikes on Syrian chemical weapons facilities, working with France and Britain

I wish someone had cut the mic's cord to humiliate him.

 

[UltraGashInferno]
