RE: Explain to me what has changed?

Trump was elected President and he occupies the position he did not occupy before. It’s very easy to opine when you are not in power.

No action without definitive proof of exactly who was involved and their motive.

Democrats would like nothing better than for Trump to get into another quagmire in the Middle East so they can blame Trump for another quagmire in the Middle East.

Notice how no Democrats are pushing for military action. They're praying he launches a strike but they want to be on record as not calling for or supporting a strike. If he does they'll hammer him for it in the midterms and 2020.

It's a trap.

Proceed with extreme caution.

The real enemy is HERE.

Pack up and come home.

Flush out/remove illegals and the deep state/shadow gov. vampires

Build the wall...drain the swamp...claw-back the stolen riches...repair OUR infrastructure/public school system...take care of your OWN house first.

Institute traditional fiscal conservatism(dump the fed/jail the Mad(e)-off's)

Continue to expose fake news MSM(including social media giants)until the sheeple/brain-fornicated finally remove their heads from their collective arses.

MAGodlyA.

No, there aren’t good arguments for us to bomb Syria.

Even if you went on the stupid suppositions of this article—that the gassing happened and Assad ordered it.

Yep and the only enemy worth fighting is HERE!

Sarah Palin's sacrifice was the watershed moment that the American Rats, RINO's, GOP Elite, Enemedia, Alphabet Deep Swamp and Globalist NWO cabal was exposed for all to see if you would look, and they are all home grown "Americans".

We blow the enemy to bits with missiles and bombs and now we should bomb the hell out of the enemy because he uses gas?

Bert is not able to post proof that Assad is a war criminal.

Time after time the insurgency has accused the Syrian government of chemical warfare, only to have the hoax exposed. Nobody believes it is true now.

Agreed. Nothing there is worth 1 drop of American blood or 1 dollar of American treasure.

You know what. Send a couple damn missiles but alert all the Russians and Syrian personnel prior to it. Take down a couple empty building. All will be theater to placate the war party.

Tucker last night revealed we killed 500 Russians previously. I was a little shocked by that. The Russians gave us a pass, thank God. Even if the Russians were NOT there, I still can’t see a good reason to stop what is Muslims killing Muslims.

Indeed upon all these weak standards we should be bombing Mexico, the UK, and even Turkey. All of them are fu...er...screwing around with the US.

Why waste money and missiles on nothing? If Syria really did it, send the missile to the RIGHT SPORT -— Where the Chemical weapons are being developed, not empty buildings.

Indeed...if your government was in the midst of a coup, would you send soldiers to some far away shit in the mud place to enact regime change?

No you still have it wrong.

Planes and helicopters don’t gas people. Military officers and their leaders gas people.

The targets must be the leaders and officers that make the action orders.

You mean the February 7th one? Why do you apologize for the US troops for defending themselves? Russians were warned not to attack, but they did it anyway.

This is such a tough call. On the one hand, there don’t seem to be any righteous sides in Syria, and the Middle East is a cauldron of people who hate everybody. On the other hand, if using chemical weapons becomes acceptable, it may be used on our troops in the future. I will just have to trust that President Trump, if given accurate information, will make the right decision.

Not a bad option as well. Would be a win for Trump. “See, chemical weapons destroyed. No need to follow up”
