US, UK and France Attack Syria in preemptive defence.

Curiously aligned with Russian interests, I should add, but that's probably just a coincidence.

Anybody in the West who says or does anything that aligns with the Russian (Putins) interests is either paid by them or a useful idiot.

I think you got my point, in a roundabout way.

[WTFH]

Why didn’t the US send their usual response to civilian casualties - tweets saying “there’s nothing we could do, thoughts and prayers, thoughts and prayers”?

Absolutely sickening from USA, UK and France. Beyond belief.

500,000 died in Syria and they carry on supporting "rebels" aka Al Qaeda
million suffering in Yemen getting bombed by Saudi bombs made in the USA and dying of famine
Palestinians getting shot for protesting South Africa style Apartheid (though much worse)
60 die in suspected chemical attacks (like Assad needs to use chemical weapons he is winning) - that's not acceptable and can't be tolerated.

Yeah nice one.

500,000 died in Syria because Assad killed them (with the help of Russia and Iran).

I repeat - Assad's butchers killed them.

You are forgetting how many countries are meddling in Syria and Iraq. You are just following a skewed Fox News report. The reporting is all pure propaganda. I have no love for Russia but they are the reason ISIS is facing defeat and you should at least thank them for that

[AtW]

Russia did not bomb ISIS, look at the fooking map and stop repating RT's BS

Why didn't the USA and the UK bomb Sudan:

On the bright side, at least the pound is up a bit after the bombing.

The Brexiteers will be worried that the stronger pound will harm the Empire 2.0 jam, tea and biscuit export strategy.
