And everyone else that sees them carrying dead children after a bombing, good PR for Isis. There was a general being interviewed last week saying if they know there are civilians there they won't bomb it. Isis will stand outside the building and shoot at the helicopters and planes to invoke a response.
The information about a fighter plane dropping it maybe true, or maybe not, I don't know. All this info is coming from the same intelligence folks who's track record over the last decade or so leaves a lot to be desired. I think a lot of loose assumptions were made to make the strike happen. To me it makes no sense for Assad to use chemicals at this point. They have the upper hand in the fight, they have Russian backing and a US administration that is less hostile toward them than the past one. Using chemicals at this point would paint Assad into a corner, and he damned well knew it. Shit don't add up...
Bingo! This makes sense. Assad is winning against the rebels/isis. Why would he attack civilians with Chemicals? Anytime Isis, Pelosi and Clinton cheer something we did, you know something is fucked.
Intelligences folks aren't the ones flying AWACS off the coast of Syria watching aircraft move about the skis. Those jets are staffed by USAF airmen (with really shitty radios) and it's that eye in the sky which provides the flight data for policy makers here and with NATO allies. That big growth on top of the fuselage sees everything, even if you're flying with your transponder turned off.
Hmmmm, wasn't there some talk a while back about WMD's leaving Iraq and into Syria.....just coincidence?
AWACS can detect a lot of things, but not what is inside a bomb under a jet wing. Was it chemical? I don't know. But, it still doesn't add up for Assad to do something this blatantly stupid.
The expression on her face cracks me up, although it can be said it's related to the atrocious acts committed over there but man, it also looks like mega disappointment for Trump support too. https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=439342613077401
The best part is when he explains that they don't want to be refugees and to please help them stay in their own country. If only we could see inside the control room at cnn when he was talking...they must have been furious!
Well it's CNN so what do you expect? She tried to break in and shut him down but he kept on talking....Looks like the world is learning the Dem's trick of hogging the microphone....just keep talking
Stupid like Einstein. Do you think a half-gross of cruise missles pounding one evacuated airbase into a moonscape affects Assad one bit? But hoo-boy howdy does the uptick in anti-US rhetoric by his partners in arms serve his purposes well. Hey, Putin, gimme some moar monies cuz the orange faced goon is tossing a billion dollas in Chinese funded ordnance at me!
Lol, this time they did even need Colin Powell. "If we forget the past we are doomed to repeat it" or something like that.
Sounds like jets are already using the bombed airbase, maybe they should have targeted the tower and communications.
Really? Have you been attention to anything he's said over the past six years? He considers that civilian populations in areas he has attacked are willfully working with terrorists and are justifiable collateral damage. He has plenty of reasons, in his mind, to want to use chemicals on them.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend... I get the distinct impression that Assad isn't adored by his countrymen
Didn't Obama, Clinton and Frankenstien tell us all of the chemical weapons in Syria were destroyed? Which is it? Yeah Pappy, better trust what Assad say's.
