Pardon for skimming the thread but was it already covered that anything important was probably relocated prior to the strike thanks to Trump spending a couple of days telling the Syrians we are gonna blow up your stuff? Lets not forget we inform the Russians ahead of strikes using that hotline.

From what it looks like the only casualties were from the Syrians blindly firing missiles into the air after the strike already
occurred and a couple of civilians ended up being in the wrong spot when those missiles fell to back to the ground.

So this mission was basically an overly complicated demolition project and the only people hurt were caused by dumbasses firing missiles off at ghosts.
Actually seems like everyone was firing missiles at ghosts. Syrians and the West.

105 Missiles at 3 targets. 35 Missiles per target at $1,250,000 per missile, so $40,000,000 to destroy each target. We almost certainly caused more damage to America than Syria. The whole thing is just an exercise of funneling taxpayer money to Raytheon and Lockheed.

So it was a $200 million ad campaign for weapons sales?


According to this reporter on the ground, there was no gas attack....

I believe America to be doing real evil over there and calling it good.

This is the story of a town called Douma, a ravaged, stinking place of smashed apartment blocks – and of an underground clinic whose images of suffering allowed three of the Western world’s most powerful nations to bomb Syria last week. There’s even a friendly doctor in a green coat who, when I track him down in the very same clinic, cheerfully tells me that the “gas” videotape which horrified the world – despite all the doubters – is perfectly genuine.

War stories, however, have a habit of growing darker. For the same 58-year old senior Syrian doctor then adds something profoundly uncomfortable: the patients, he says, were overcome not by gas but by oxygen starvation in the rubbish-filled tunnels and basements in which they lived, on a night of wind and heavy shelling that stirred up a dust storm.

As Dr Assim Rahaibani announces this extraordinary conclusion, it is worth observing that he is by his own admission not an eyewitness himself and, as he speaks good English, he refers twice to the jihadi gunmen of Jaish el-Islam [the Army of Islam] in Douma as “terrorists” – the regime’s word for their enemies, and a term used by many people across Syria. Am I hearing this right? Which version of events are we to believe?

How could it be that Douma refugees who had reached camps in Turkey were already describing a gas attack which no-one in Douma today seemed to recall? It did occur to me, once I was walking for more than a mile through these wretched prisoner-groined tunnels, that the citizens of Douma lived so isolated from each other for so long that “news” in our sense of the word simply had no meaning to them. Syria doesn’t cut it as Jeffersonian democracy – as I cynically like to tell my Arab colleagues – and it is indeed a ruthless dictatorship, but that couldn’t cow these people, happy to see foreigners among them, from reacting with a few words of truth. So what were they telling me?

They talked about the Islamists under whom they had lived. They talked about how the armed groups had stolen civilian homes to avoid the Syrian government and Russian bombing. The Jaish el-Islam had burned their offices before they left, but the massive buildings inside the security zones they created had almost all been sandwiched to the ground by air strikes. A Syrian colonel I came across behind one of these buildings asked if I wanted to see how deep the tunnels were. I stopped after well over a mile when he cryptically observed that “this tunnel might reach as far as Britain”. Ah yes, Ms May, I remembered, whose air strikes had been so intimately connected to this place of tunnels and dust. And gas?

You might want to check out this video by Jimmy Dore. It is rather telling. Featured is Professor Jeffery Sachs, asserting as provable facts (AND NOT DISPUTED BY THE ADMIRAL WHO WAS ON THE SHOW):
  • America's CIA in collusion with Saudi Arabia (look up Timber Sycamore) funded and initiated the terrorists in an attempt to topple Assad, in essence a breach of international law that caused 600,000 dead and 10 million displaced This operation was NEVER explained to Congress or the American people. It was an act of war done in secret.
  • This operation is being run by the "permanent state" and they in collusion with the mainstream media are putting MASSIVE pressure on any politician who attempts to pull out
  • This war would have been over years ago save for America's continued support for "rebels", it is our intervention that is preventing the war from ending. Our continued involvement defies not only international law but also common sense and simple human decency.
Interestingly enough, we teamed up with Saudi Arabia to do genocide in Yemen. We crawl into bed with monsters, conjure up evil deeds and then the media pretends we are the good guys when by ANY metric we are not.

The funniest bonus of all is at the end they have Robert Mueller lying about chemical weapons ON CAMERA to Congress in order to justify invading Iraq. This garbage permanent state that we have has been around for decades and they will never EVER let us out of the Middle East. They will lie, cheat and steal to keep us in and the media will cheer lead all the way All the evidence that I am aware of supports my bullet points above and I am aware of no evidence that contradicts me, are you?

Check out some of Jimmy's other content regarding the chemical attacks . It has the American permanent state ADMITTING that we have NO evidence of a Syrian government chemical strike which was used for justification for the missile strike earlier this year. Also pointed out is that the consistent response of the Republican and Democratic elite to American missile strikes is ALWAYS positively giddy..... they have ZERO ideological difference at all on this...... that is frankly terrifying.

I have absolutely no interest in any of your conspiracy shit.

You're being played and you don't know enough about the situation to understand that's what's happening. And you're not going to learn anything from a bunch of clowns on YouTube.

I'd also suggest taking a look at this article:
