This was the fourth time this year Doumas had been hit with chemical weapons, and we obviously knew where they were being produced, so why did we wait until now?

I wonder why the civilians never left these areas because rebel snipers were targeting them to force them to stay, classy, we've done the right thing not backing them imo and at least this strike might make Assad think twice before gassing again, guess it comes down to whether he thinks gassing is worth the price he's just paid.

Especially if you are encouraging them to fight or using them as pawns in a much bigger scheme, some might say you even deserve to get bit
