Moscow will shoot down any U.S. missiles fired at Syria and retaliate against American launch sites, the Russian ambassador to Lebanon has warned.

Ambassador Alexander Zasypkin made the comments on Tuesday while speaking on the Hezbollah-affiliated al-Manar TV channel, Reuters reported.

President Donald Trump is currently considering military action against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad following Saturday’s suspected chemical attack on the rebel-held town of Douma near the capital city of Damascus. Medical relief groups say the attack killed dozens of civilians.

Can we confine the conflict to that theater?

Seems to me that after all the rhetoric over the past 48 hours, there are two possible outcomes:

If we don’t start shooting (so to speak) soon, we will look like a paper tiger.

If we do start shooting, we risk it getting out of control and WWIII commences.

Have you all seen the footage of the chemical attack? My teenagers have made better videos on their phones...it was busch league at best. I hope Trump is careful here and doesn’t do something based on lies being fed to him by people that wish to harm him. I myself am not convinced Syria did this...

Hate to see things escalate over a s**thole we don’t need to be involved in.

True, but that’s not quite the point.

Russia is an ally of Syria’s so it looks like they’re going to start acting like an ally.

Time for the USA to stop mucking around with one of Russia’s allies.
