Re: U.S insists Russia ends Syria-Assad Support after Chemical Attack kills 70

Interesting, we’re now at Defcon 4 on the nuclear war scale. 4 is Increased Security and Intel gathering.

5 is Normal. 1 is Game over.

Re: U.S insists Russia ends Syria-Assad Support after Chemical Attack kills 70

BREAKING: U.S President Donald Trump has just tweeted to warn Russia not to shoot down their missiles because they will be coming.

https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/...22625440747520

Quote:
Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump

Russia vows to shoot down any and all missiles fired at Syria. Get ready Russia, because they will be coming, nice and new and “smart!” You shouldn’t be partners with a Gas Killing Animal who kills his people and enjoys it!
We're on the verge of WWIII.

Rule 1 of suprise attacks - don't tell the enemy there's going to be one...

It's hardly going to be a surprise if there are several U.S Destroyers and Frigates currently residing in the Mediterranean Sea, just off the coast of Syria.

I mean I support standing up to these people but the tweet doesn't fill me with confidence.

I agree, the tweet was not necessary.

He is probably right about the missles being smart, especially of the 'Stable genius' kind.

Russian foreign Ministry has responded to Trump's tweet, "The missles should be aimed at the terrorists not legitimate governments."

The guy is a mad man it's about time we took him down he's pretty much manipulated the world in one way or another.

The only thing is it's the nuclear button that doesn't scare me. It's the use of mass chemical weapons he will probably use on mass people if a war does come

First person to fire any Nuke and we might as well say goodbye to each other now, nobody wins in that instance.

Re: Updated: Imminent U.S Missile Strike on Syria

Russian journalist says on Twitter that he just asked a source close to the Kremlin: "How real are the chances of war between the US and Russia right now?" They replied: "8 out of 10." #Douma #Syria

I wouldn't read too much into that. Russia love saying everything is of the most dire consequence. Doesn't matter if we're bombing Syria, banning them from the Olympics or pointing out Russian dolls are stupid they always say it's super-very-serious.

Re: Updated: Imminent U.S Missile Strike on Syria

He seems to have a complete 180 in the last hour anyway.

Much of the bad blood with Russia is caused by the Fake & Corrupt Russia Investigation, headed up by the all Democrat loyalists, or people that worked for Obama. Mueller is most conflicted of all (except Rosenstein who signed FISA & Comey letter). No Collusion, so they go crazy!
Not quite sure how this is being caused by the Russian investigation.

There is a valid question to legitimately ask, that even I am going to raise, that with the recent raid on Trump's lawyer Michael Cohen that Trump is not in the calm and rational right frame of mind to make decisions such as this, lots of White House, pundits saying he was really infuriated with that raid, he tweeted all in caps first thing yesterday "A TOTAL WITCH HUNT!".

The Pentagon is being more reserved they have commented in last half hour that they do not comment on military actions.

---------- Post added at 15:46 ---------- Previous post was at 14:18 ----------

Russians are saying they have tested samples from the site of the alleged chemical attack and said "they came back showing no signs of a chemical attack...."

Oh look at that great big pig flying in the sky... FFS these games need to stop.
