Byron, Iran is already there....why Israel must launch more attacks due to their border being more in danger....very threatened. Assad would gas, not caring about the presence of "his own people" in particular places, not to target them but due to the fact that the rebels have control there and are close to Damascus and they rely primarily on chemical weapons. It's not that they're wanting to gas their own people (not good publicity)....they just become "collateral damage" to the types of weaponry they have to resort to. Assad has already written his future due to his link with Iran's goals and backing. Iran is waiting for their major coup with their nukes (be they small in the beginning or not). Everybody is getting very nervous....including China who I believe will continue using N. Korea for its purposes. Everything and everyone is being exposed big time...for that world "correction" and purification. And they are given a "moment" to change course but are already too far into the depths of the hell on earth to go anywhere but to a kind of suicide....and the Father won't allow for that....why certain natural developments, reacting to all of the sin, are already occurring, awaiting "the big one" kind of reaction.
I have to admit that I'm not following that bone you're chewing on....those "neocons". Your neocons are the Bushy types....protect and take advantage of situations, hang the results, and build the global order to, of course benefit themselves. I don't like them either. Cowards allowed the Shah's removal....and we even refused him health care when dying (the brave and bold Jimmy Carter)....it was his real friend, Sadat, who took him in....after all of his time of cooperation with the U.S. And then look at what happened to Sadat! Trump is the target of the Neocons. Obviously. You have the line up of everyone of those 5 former Presidents who appeared in unison with "Lady Gaga", (admitted giving soul to Satan herself and desiring rescue), for their alleged purpose of helping hurricane victims....think they care about the little guy? Everyone of them was there for their shared goal and purpose of targeting Trump....together. Again, exposure of the NWO types under all disguises.
The most likely scenario is that Erdogan felt that he was running out of time to oust Assad and with President Trump stating that he planned on pulling the US troops out of Syria, Erdogan was worried about the void that would be left there. I keep looking at the situation from the stand point that they all get along (Russia, Syria, Iran and Turkey) but ultimately they are all trying to protect their own country and their own interests. In addition, I believe they are not concerned for those who are dying there by starvation etc. or how the world perceives them for letting this happen. So, the most likely scenario is a sort of combination of #2 and #3 from my other post: The Turkish backed terrorists/rebels dropped the chemical weapons or made it look like they were dropped so that the US (or whomever) comes in and defends the innocents that were killed there which ultimately would result in the US (or whomever) doing some of the dirty work of the Turkish backed terrorists/rebels in their fight against Assad. Since Israel is concerned with their own country & it's interests and Iran has been getting ready for an all out assault on them by setting up bases in Syria, Israel may have taken this opportunity to give Iran another push back. In addition, I think President Trump realized all of the above and thought "fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me" - at least I hope so.
Everything is being exposed. But I do not believe this attack came from Syria. I am very concerned that we are being set up for war. I also believe Pres Trump is navigating across a mine field. He knows the deep state will try to provoke a war. I pray he keeps us out of it. We must pray for him. Were it not for God's help things would already have blown up perhaps. These are such perilous times. We really are waging war with principalities and powers. St Michael the Archangel defend us in battle!
Birth control is now universally pushed....by all types of "services", esp. the Gates' "humanitarian" type efforts in poor countries. Planned Parenthood is the big kahuna industrialized complex making big bucks off mainly abortions in order to sell all portions (seems nothing gets wasted) of the little human bodies. And citizens are being forced to subsidize this holocaust. Yes, the approach to end one thing isn't perfect but human defectiveness limits approaches and to expose PP's real source for their greed, knowing if they only resorted to passing out birth control which can be handled pretty much everywhere else these days would not be enough to keep them in business, is a good start!
Except that Turkey's actions have been to benefit the rebels in Syria....so they likely wouldn't be the ones to attack this rebel stronghold. And this was a Syrian base, not one of the 10 or so Iranian bases that threaten with missile strikes against Israel. I don't believe that Trump felt "fooled". And still apparently plans on other "big" responses of one type or another. Most likely Israel...perhaps hitting two birds with one stone....which response shows a bit of cooperation with Trump. Guess we'll find out .... with the wash!
Correction....there are Iranian forces at the T-4 Syrian base (that Israel allegedly bombed)....timing gave an opening for perhaps an already planned attack that would include against Iranian force interference. I believe that a drone from this base was sent by Iranian forces into Israel in February, escalating things.
Oh brother.....power corrupts, etc. TOM FITTON: FBI Notifies Judicial Watch It Needs At Least THREE YEARS To Turn Over Strzok-Page Communications On Monday, the FBI notified Judicial Watch that the bureau will need at least three years to hand over “releasable,” communications between anti-Trump FBI agents Peter Strzok and Lisa Page. ..Judicial Watch announced on January 24th that the watchdog filed an FOIA lawsuit against the Justice Department for communications between Strzok and Page. (and this would be nice, but improbable)....Fitton has called on President Donald Trump to direct U.S. Marshals to seize computer evidence at the FBI in relation to the missing Strzok-Page text messages. Fitton: In response to FBI "missing" texts scandal, AG Sessions should direct U.S. Marshals to take steps to seize, secure and preserve necessary computer evidence at FBI. And if AG doesn't act, @RealDonaldTrump should order it be done. http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/201...ears-to-hand-over-strzok-page-communications/
Russia Is Ready for War: Mood on Prime-Time TV Is Grim (short report about the mood on Russian prime time TV): I just spend about 2 hour listening to a TV debate of Russian experts about what to do about the USA. Here are a few interesting interesting points. 1) They all agreed that the Anglo-Zionist (of course, they used the words “USA” or “Western countries”) was only going to further escalate and that the only way to stop this is to deliberately bring the world right up to the point were a full-scale US-Russian war was imminent or even locally started. They said that it was fundamentally wrong for Russia to reply with just words against Western actions. 2) Interestingly, there also was a consensus that even a full-scale US attack on Syria would be too late to change the situation on the ground, that it was way too late for that. 3) Another interesting conclusion was that the only really question for Russia is whether Russia would be better off delaying this maximal crisis or accelerating the events and making everything happen sooner. There was no consensus on that. 4) Next, there was an consensus view that pleading, reasoning, asking for fairness or justice, or even for common sense, was futile. The Russian view is simple: the West is ruled by a gang of thugs supported by an infinitely lying and hypocritical media while the general public in the West has been hopelessly zombified. The authority of the so-called “western values” (democracy, rule of law, human rights, etc.) in Russia is now roadkill. 5) There was also a broad consensus that the US elites are not taking Russia seriously and that the current Russian diplomatic efforts are futile (especially towards the UK). The only way to change that would be with very harsh measures, including diplomatic and military ones. Everybody agreed that talking with Boris Johnson would be not only a total waste of time, but a huge mistake. 6) To my amazement, the notion that Russia might have to sink a few USN ships or use Kalibers on US forces in the Middle-East was viewed as a real, maybe inevitable, option. Really – nobody objected. Reach your own conclusions. I will just say that none of the “experts” was representing, or working for, the Russian government. Government experts not only have better info, they also know that the lives of millions of people depend on their decisions, which is not the case for the so-called “experts”. Still, the words of these experts do reflect, I think, a growing popular consensus.... https://thesaker.is/listening-to-ru...port-about-the-mood-on-russian-prime-time-tv/
etoa, What was the attack on this rebel stronghold specifically? It could be that they took some dead bodies, people who recently expired due to the conditions there and made it look like there was a chemical attack by placing some foam on their mouths and taking some pictures. The video of the people getting hosed off is hardly convincing imho. Just take a few people and run cool water over them with their clothes on and I am sure you would get a similar reaction. In addition, they blew some things up but a huge part of their so called stronghold is entirely war torn already so all they needed to do was bomb an already bombed out part of the city and take some video footage of it. Although, it does appear that some victims were found to have fractures, gunshot and shrapnel wounds. Even if the rebels did use chemicals on some civilians and or killed them in other ways, I think their attitude is that it is all for their cause. It appears that it is thought that the base that was hit is an "Iranian base". This is from the Washington Post article that I posted, "Israeli officials did not immediately comment on the reports. The raid on the T-4 airfield in Homs province — believed also to be a base for Iranian and Iranian-allied militias..." "Also Monday, the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported that 14 people were killed in the Israeli strike on the T-4 air base, most of them members of Iranian forces or Iran-backed proxies supporting the Syrian government. Iran’s Fars News Agency, which is close to the powerful Revolutionary Guard, reported that three Iranians were killed in the attack." In addition, Israel has targeted this same airbase recently, "In February, Israel confirmed that it had targeted the same airfield in Homs after an Iranian drone entered Israeli airspace. Eight warplanes were used in that attack, Israel’s military said, including one F-16 fighter jet that was downed by Syrian antiaircraft fire." https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/middle_east/syria-says-strike-on-military-base-carried-out-by-israeli-warplanes/2018/04/09/4179f3a2-2864-46ec-9b35-fef7c4eaf247_story.html?utm_term=.d2bd99fa2d34 My point about President Trump being fooled was in respect to the action that he took the last time this occurred in April of 2017, no one knows for sure but I think that he would be wise to gather as much data as possible before he reacts to this situation.
IOW, Russia misses Obama and their hoped for replacement.....Hillary! Ahhh, the old days when things were so much easier for plans to go forward. Everyone (now including China) is screaming "no one can negotiate under these conditions"! And don't you love the "current Russian diplomatic efforts", esp. with UK......calling the Queen a slosh and the PM another type of "tipper" as well!! Speaking from lots of experience I would guess.
Trump's foreign policy is the same Neocon foreign policy as Hillary, Obama and Bush. What makes it even worse is that Trump ran on a very different foreign policy during the campaign, but once he got into office he showed his true colors. If he goes through with this plans to bomb Assad before a proper investigation can be conducted, then I will actively start praying for Trump's defeat just as I prayed for the defeat of Obama and Hillary. Lives are at stake in Syria, Christian lives and I'm sick of Trump's warmongering. These Neocons care nothing about Syrian lives as evidence by their continuing support for the "Syrian Rebels" who are known terrorists comprised of al-Qaeda and al-Nusra among other killers. They cry about the victims of the latest Gas attack but care nothing for the hundreds of thousands who have died because they continue to arm and support these "Syrian Rebels" who the Catholic bishops of Syria have warned from the very beginning of this conflict were terrorists and mercenaries.
Yeah, if Trump does attack Syria, I'd expect Putin to sink a US Navy ship in the Black Sea, which might precipitate Trump doing something very stupid. I'm praying that none of that happens.
Then why do all of your beloved targets, those dastardly (them alone it would appear) neocons, absolutely hate him and are doing everything to bring him down because he won't march to their orders?????? Logic. Your NEOCONS ARE RESPONSIBLE for it all.....and yet they hate Trump....but it's the same old world as Zero and the voodoo lady....r-i-g-h-t! Trump did not create this mess he was handed it by the neocons and NWO/globalist elitist types. He must respond...and so far he has done what he said..re: ISIS, quickly and responded to what the entire rest of the "crying" world, including that problem solver, UN, who continue to only wring their hands about....while spraying the innocent with various types of chemicals. Warmonger? While the former complacent, fear filled, globalist, appeasers gave every possible opening for their world war plans against the civilized world....opening up the M.E. to those various types of "Springs" while Christians were burned alive in locked churches.....eliminating the promised defensive tools for places like Poland to even defend themselves to some extent against their known Commie enemy. Now this plan by the Soros types has been interfered with. Everything you mention as not being considered was already a done deal by those I've mentioned who seem to be conveniently given some type of blanket absolution by such as yourself. It's your targeted heroes who are the ones responsible for all of this set scenario of which you complain. Put the blame where it belongs. A few months of a new face wipes all that out. Ridiculous except for dreamers. The ongoing money sources for the continuing terror seem not to enter into your scenario...which Trump is eliminating by his policies for crying out loud. What a convenient recall of history. Trump, the one and only whipping boy...because it must make people feel that they are actually doing something about an entirely corrupt world which wasn't built in a day and now an impossibility to be addressed by other than the brave and dedicated.....few and far between these days.
The buck stops with Trump. It's his choice to surround himself with crazed warmongers like Bolton and Haley. No one is forcing him. I'm starting to think he was a Freemason all along and the Presidency is nothing more than a Freemason ceremonial office taking orders from Israeli and Saudi foreign interests. Our first and only Catholic President warned us about allowing the Presidency to become a ceremonial office: Here's a good talk by the solid Catholic Brother Andre Marie of the dangers posed to American's foreign policy by the Neocons and Christian Zionists:
And Trump has been "forced" to do what? Tweet? Our "Catholic" president is our example of good behavior because he speaks something probably put before him by his personal writer....while his own "ceremonial office" sure covered his (and other family members) multitude of hidden pleasures, abusing many??? Not a good repartee as some kind of example of Presidents to emulate...esp. for children. Then again they have been "protected" from such understanding by their loyal re-educators. Strange take as well....since it's, pretty much for the first time, actually the Saudis and Israelis who are cooperating with Trump and even each other, for now. Yes, evidence here in this thread for our entry into the era of "up is down" and "left is right", etc. as predicted. And Haley is a tremendous choice for representation of the sovereign U.S. AGAINST the UN's own ongoing wheeling and dealing with some of the biggest human abusers in the world. The UN....in other words is the immoral conveyer of misery and promotion of anti-sovereign national ideologies. Another very bad example for your argument. And now thanks to Trump that "buck stopping with him" has increased for the benefit of the forgotten middle class and lower. And it's been halted as the foundation for the growing corrupt power of ruthless, lying, and stealing China, (among others) gone on for waaaay too long. China has actually been insulting its own people by assuming they could create nothing original via their own higher educations in our country unless they steal what Americans, in their unique entrepreneurship thinking, have already created. Trump's doing their people a favor as well. But I guess such an opening for freedom met with more tyranny by the tyrant, now for life, should be avoided because there's too much fear already established as now noted as well by even our top Church authorities.
That's what you have wound up with? The Alinsky approach when met with facts? Whatever the "it" actually was is still left wanting.
