Nothing here quite adds up. It is odd, to put it mildly, to bomb ISIS one day and to bomb ISIS's main Syrian enemy (i.e., the Assad government) the next day. And if the alleged or real use of chemical weapons by bad actors is a suitable cause for military action, it is equally odd that, by implication, we are suggesting that the bad actors are safe if they stick to bombs, bullets, clubs, and rocks to kill people. It is hard to believe that Trump does not have the sense to see these points.
Under the previous and unlamented administration, the theory was allegedly that we would overthrow or at least tame Assad, so that the Syrian people could sally forth to create a liberal democratic state in which all would live happily ever after. Again, it is hard to believe that Trump, the man who can readily identify a foreign poop-hole, is unable to see that Syria is and is going to remain a poop-hole, regardless of what we do or whom we do or do not bomb.
Is Israel putting us up to it? But if Iran is an "existential threat" to Israel because of its alleged or real nuclear weapons program, bombing an Iranian pawn in Syria does nothing to make it less of a threat. (If your enemy is bringing his shotgun down to point at your midriff, the penknife in his pocket is probably irrelevant.) And if Iran is not deemed by Israel to be an "existential threat" because of its alleged or real nuclear weapons program, then the point of all the propaganda is to stir us into a confrontation that would harm Iran and benefit the Sunni Arabs. But why would Israel, unless insanity has seized their government, think that ISIS-dominated regimes on its own borders are a good idea for its security?
There has to be something else going on here. Perhaps the point of the entire exercise was to send a message to North Korea and Iran that they cannot stop us from attacking them successfully if we feel compelled to do so. Or maybe it was something altogether different.

No different than Iraq, weapons of mass destruction take out the 95 year old Skytes Picot dictators and the ottomans move in. Assad is the last dictator to take out. Then it's finally done. The crescent will be in full control the boarders created by the British will be wiped out and the Christians will all die. Erodogan president of Turkey spoke person informed the Canadian parliament in march 2018 that the 2019 elections in turkey will reign in the Ottoman Empire once again lead by Erodogan. So Assad has to go you see. He must be elimated like sadam, like Lybia, Sudan etc...Saudi Arabia will be taken care of by Iran along with their little Arabic countries. Turkey has. A deal with Iran you see. But Iran is resisting when it comes to Assad because Assad is of the same Islamic demonation as Iran. Which is causing conflict between Iran n turkey, where does Russia fit in well that also known Russia is enemies with the ottomans and wants to block it. Assad has a great ally in Russia, who has at least respect over there where the US lacks respect. But the all powerful ottomans have agreed to hand Iraq over to Iran which is part of the agreement yet Iran is reluctant to allow them to take Syria. It's an Islamic chess game of complex difficulties but here's the states doing the ottomans bidding. What's wrong with Trump don't he know his history ? Oh yes I forgot the west don't know their history it means nothing.

Thankfully we have Muslims who are now Catholics and are trying to get this info out, lucky for us they can read Arabic and scan the news over there,
But if you want to stick with lying CNN we'll hey that your choice I guess

Better said than I did

I did support President Trump, voted for him because I thought he had a new message for the United States, especially foreign and also domestic policies.
Also, I have always thought for 40 years we should bring every child home from these foreign conflicts...he seemed to agree with this.
His bombing of Syria shows he is nonpricipled, impetuous and also a weak follower, and also compromised to other interests. His first words in his address last night were that Syria was the culprit in last year's chemical attack although he has no proof of it as his own administration said 2 months ago. They have no of the proof now for the most recent episode...except Macron said so (??)
He is not believable anymore. I believe he would sacrifice our children to Moloch (including Syrian Christians) at the behest of Mr. Bolton and his perspective and in the end not protect us but put us and our children at more peril.
Do we really want to send our children over there anymore?
I have no belief he represents me anymore.

She would have done the same thing. Trump made business deals, she made deals with foreign governments. including the sale of our uranium...no excuse for that, and vast payments for it.
But, again, he is selling us down the road to war. Cannot understand why he is doing that
He has negated on all his foreign policy promises.

Too late.

The UK, US and France have attacked Syria on April 13, 2018 US time in the 101'st year of the Fatima clock.

Russia and Iran are military allies of Syria.

We ask the bishops and pope for the Consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of the Most Holy Virgin to prevent or reduce the 'annihilation of nations' promised to punish the sexual revolution.

Yes, obviously this was posted two days before the strikes in Syria.

Actually, recent revelations from Richards' new book have it that Ivanka met with her to try to convince Planned Parenthood to STOP abortions altogether, the idea being that tax dollars could still be allocated to PP so long as abortion stopped.

USA "war hawks-for-Israel" need to be reminded that the on-going strife in Syria began as a Syrian CIVIL WAR, with aim to unseat Assad as elected leader. USA---thousand miles and oceans away, has no legitimate interest in joining this Syrian Civil War---nor has Israel any justification in joining the fray. War Hawks, take "time-out"---quit stirring the gas warfare pot.

Though of course horrendous, the scale of these gas attacks seems in terms of war to be pretty small. So that makes it easy to envisage that just about anyone involved in the Syrian conflict could have caused them. Yet the finger-pointing has been instant and overwhelming. That Macron and May in particular are so ready to rush in where fools fear to tread (they have trodden before! - Blair) is deeply concerning.

Our Lady of Fatima, Pray for Us!! Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, please consecrate Russia to Mary's Immaculate Heart.

Which has to be done in union with all the Bishops. So, a way to go then!! And BTW, Benedict is not the Pope.

You say Benedict XVI is not the Pope. Is the mocker of Christ and all that is holy the Pope? Maybe we do not have a Pope. Francis may wear the clothing of a Pope, but he is no more Pope than Trump is a peacemaker.

I'm hoping that Trump is just playing the deep state/war hawks and doesn't do anything stupid. If anything, Russia should be one of our greatest allies, not our enemy.

Other societies see that dissolution of sexual identity and unlimited sexual license and fluidity between sexes is the downfall of the cultural order and a way to take control.
It is why there is the attack by the left, particularly on Russia, Poland, Hungary. This not about interference with elections by Russia, "Equal Rights" or any of that. It's about destroying any social cohesion so the government can take control and restore their "order."
Called... Cultural Marxism...diametrically opposed to anything Catholic.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes !

The track record of Western powers in the Middle East should give any ruler pause. Trump argues that Iraq was a huge mistake but he's willing to get involved in a similar situation that has even less bearing on the United States and which has the very real possibility of expanding the conflict to our ostensible allies like Egypt and Turkey (although they are allies in name only), not to mention drawing Russia into it deeper.

If our country can't learn from Iraq, what will it take?

Which unnamed Mideast "trouble-maker" may be involved in gas attacks in Syria? The repeated occurrence of these gas attacks raises the suspicion that supposed Syrian guilt may be a contrived case of an "agent-provocateur"?---so useful in stirring up excuses for American and Israeli military involvement, in pursuit of Zionist domination of the Mideast?---and with Russia also in the mix? Syria and Russia have stocks of gas-weaponry? Yes, and so does the USA, and Israel too, possess gas-weaponry (along with Atomic weapons)---which Israel steadfastly refuses any international inspection---the regular inspection required of all other nations? This continual anti-Syrian propaganda, seems a cover-up of real evidence, with use of "fake news"?

Recipe for catastrophe:

One ignorant, blustering President whose governance of the country consists of ridiculous Tweets.

One vast collection of corrupt elites possessed of a rabid hatred of the ignorant President -- though their own collective failure of leadership and character led directly to his election in the first place.

One lunatic conspiracy theory, stoked fanatically by the corrupt elites, that the election of the ignorant President was due to the machinations of a nuclear-armed foreign power, a country suddenly transformed into the locus of all evil in the universe.

One manufactured international crisis with the corrupt elites taunting and manipulating the ignorant President into an insane military confrontation with the nuclear-armed foreign power.

Mix ingredients well.

Set nuclear oven to 30,000 degrees and leave town immediately.

Of course, all the wars of the past 20 years have been prosecuted by the neocons in the interests of their First Loyalty, which is not the US -- to the point of fabricating false flag attacks to scare and galvanize a gullible populace into supporting the madly destructive agenda of a supposed ally that exploits our military for its own ends and is thus really Enemy Number One.

The Neo-Cons, Globalists and Christian Zionists, while being strange bedfellows, make a formidable triumvirate. The United States, Israel, Britain, France and Saudi Arabia seem to be forming an alliance against Russia, Syria and Iran with China looming quietly in the background. I’m not normally an alarmist but the signs of the times (Including The Fatima Messages) certainly appear apocalyptic.

Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us.

Virgin Most Powerful, wrap us under the protection of thy Heavenly Mantle.

Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us.

Protestantism is judaizing, so it makes sense that they would align themselves with the rootless cosmopolitans.

WHY do I have the sick feeling that the Moussad in Israel is involved in this? Commentary Magazine is part of the Amen Corner for Israel.

Commentary is bought and paid for by the rootless cosmopolitans.

Amen to that - and why do I have the sicker feeling that Mr. Trump is either incapable (or unwilling) to figure that out? Assad gains nothing from what he's being accused of, so who else does?
May Our Lord and Our Lady have mercy upon our country.

Trump is compromised, and a pawn now and controlled, as all our so called "Presidents" have been. They have their marching orders from powers we cannot oppose.
"Presidents" have no more freedom that we do

Respectfully; plausible at best understanding Isreal hates Syria vice-versa. I hate the thought of another "Big Whore" Global spun media sources driving U.S. involvement into another propaganda fueled war. Russia and China are pushing the West like a moth to a flame into an all out staged WWIII. Is Mr. Trump really buying all this strictly on the basis of a military humanitarian response to really gain nothing at all in the end but bloodshed? The stench of tyranny wreaks havoc everywhere with governmental children playing with matches boasting who's king of the hill. Good Grief.
