First Daughter Ivanka Trump’s intervention may have tipped the balance in her father’s decision to order Friday’s strike on a Syrian air base.

Doubtful. It seems actually Kush & Bannon were opposed, Mattis for.
Maybe it was the dog. Oh, they don’t have a dog? Well then, the butler did it.
Because obviously, Donald J. Trump has never in his life made a decision on his own.
I knew this was Fake News!
Indeed it is Faje News
Just imagine Mattis not agreeing

Are you 100% CERTAIN that Kushner was against the strike?

As long as it wasn’t Amy Carter.
No. It was said that the nat sec team was unanimously in favor
Alpha male Donald Trump is being steered by his daughter in the White House. Yeah, right. I didn’t know they taught science fiction in journalism school because apparently you have to have good imaginations, rather than the desire to report factual events to be a news reporter these days.
Hi RC,
After listening to Bill Mitchell explain what he thinks DJT’s strategy, I now understand how this strike is actually a move far more brilliant than I could have ever imagined. Good debate:

I have not and will not really criticize him about Syria because I don’t know the intel.
I will say that if you are going to get worked up about children’s bodies..it will become a strategy for ISIS. Well who am I kidding..it already is.
Lefties are doing their level best to get under Trumps skin.
They think Ivanka may be one route.
They have no idea what they are dealing with and cannot handle their own collapse.
True. What I am hoping for is the long term strategy of cleaning it out, and creating safe zones so these rapefugees stop coming here, and return and stay in their own country. I guess time will tell.
I’ll go for the simplest explanation. Trump got upset by pictures of “beautiful children” killed by gas and decided since he has the power to do something about it he should. If you think that’s silly, think about how empathetic Trump has been towards the families of kids killed by illegals. Dead kids seems to be a hot button for him.
didn’t see outraged stories in the media when valerie jerrett led her lapdog, BHO, around by a leash for 8 years.
and her only qualification for leader of the leader of the free world was being a slumlord for a decade.
We are fortunate to have LS here who can share these insights. Sadly, some FReepers prefer to spread the fakest of fake news instead. Dumb!
Kushner was opposed? Huh.
Maybe Jamie Gorelick gave “ethics” input...
I’d sure feel a lot better if Cohn and Powell weren’t in the White House. I don’t dismiss their influence as cavalierly as some. I’m happy with so much the president has done and don’t expect to agree with him all the time but it does matter WHO is in the White House. “Personnel is policy”...
I have no doubt that the pics truly affected him, Hugin. He really loves children, and that is such a delightful trait of his.
I suspect he took the many complicated angles and strategies and wove them together into one masterful plan that he will keep close to the vest, as he usually does.
The ME has been one giant headache, danger, and expense for the U.S. How wonderful it would be if we could extricate ourselves from the refugees and the expense of propping up leaders and regimes over there. We’re producing our own oil now, and I don’t know why we have to be involved with any of it anymore.
JMO.
