"People Are Dancing In The Streets": Syria, Russia, Iran Shrug Off Trump's Airstrikes

Why US the superpower needs so many countries to gang up Syria bombing civilian facilities?

😂😂😂

What rock have you been hiding under?

Trump just threw a hissy fit and started bombing the place.

Syrian chemical stockpiles were destroyed in 2014 with full inspections from the UN.

The US funds brutal jihadis and terrorists to overthrow a democratically elected government.

Syria and Russia successfully defeats the jihadis. Making the billions of dollars spent by the Americans amount to nothing.

Trump gets angry and starts bombing the place to show "he's still in charge".

MSM media whitewashes the attacks with whatever thinly-veiled excuse it can come up with.

My understanding is that the issue was to deter states from the use of chemical weapons in conventional warfare. In that context, the strikes executed were, by any standards, very limited, very targeted, forewarned and measured. They appear to have been designed very specifically to destroy and degrade chemical weapon development capacity and resources of the Syrian regime. All declared prestrike policy focus by US & allies, bear witness to that very limited limited objective. There was clearly no intention to destabilise the regime, or to directly confront or engage the Russian military elements in the country and its now been confirmed that Russian air defences were not involved.
Reports to date suggest that the particular targeted chemical development resources were obliterated, which was the specific object of the exercise.
