US strikes on Syria: Donald Trump's missile attack 'kills four children' as Russia condemns 'aggression' https://uk.search.yahoo.com/search?p=US strikes Syria&fr=fp-tts-903&fr2=ps
It would be more productive if they dropped the bombs on Assad's palace instead of his airports. Whilst he is home of course. If we're going to bomb another country and kill people, get rid of the people who are making decisions to use chemical weapons in the first place.
Assad seems to be smart sleeping with one eye opened. In reality I think his days a numbered. No one expect Trump to bomb Syria..
Not to go all Sisu...but Trump gets the opportunity to man up and one up Obama in Syria....and look tough against Russia.. Then Sweden who he named as having a terrorist problem when at the time it didn't...suddenly does? Hmmmm.
Despite it being Trump it was the only action that had manoeuvring room for the US. A response was needed...The 3 country's that could only the US would act..but because of the Iraq debacle it was never going to be a troop surge.. So...bomb the facility that carried out the attack..sends the message that "we aren't going to involve ourselves in the civil war in general..but will punish use of weapons of mass destruction." It's what Obama wanted to do but was too chicken **** to act unilaterally without Congress permission...a permission he did not need since there was no direct troop deployment involved in firing some cruise missiles.. Unfortunately Trump didn't do it because of the gassed babies...he did it because he wanted to show he was stronger than Obama...his infatuation.
Yes. The US dropped nuclear bombs on Japan in the 40's. I bet Israel will be the next country to use nuclear weapons.
The name of the B29 that dropped the second bomb on Nagasaki was 'Bock's Car'. Not many people know that. Edit - apparently it dropped Wayne Rooney.
Update: for those interested, according to Wikipedia, the captain was a Captain Bock and the name chosen, "Bockscar" was a pun on Boxcar.
BTW, one last fact before bedtime - Enola Gay was named after Tibbetts' mother. Glamorous Glennis was named after Chuck Yeager's wife. I'm great at pub quizzes (if they stop people using Wiki on their ****ing phones), but for some reason everyone of my team 'mates' then leave me there on my own after the winnings are divvied.
Sean Spicer: Hitler didn't use chemical weapons SS: I mean on his own people SS: I mean German Jews weren't people SS: I mean I am Hitler SS: Happy Passover.....
To be fair, the Holocaust centres were a minor event a long time ago, so it's not suprising he was a little rusty. They don't really compare to modern day atrocities like the Bowling Green Massacre.
Yeah and most Jewish people vote Democrat anyway so he doesn't have to worry about upsetting them by forgetting their history and losing votes.
To be fair, I don't think SS was trying to be a Holocaust denier, he's just an idiot and too stubborn to admit he made a goof so kept digging deeper. Like Kelly Anne Conway and her Bowling Green massacre, she was half listening in a meeting and her idiot mind she thought there was a massacre. Rather than admit she was wrong she digs deeper.
