Looks like we are off to bomb Syria some more, can anyone remember what it achieved the last time? For evil to triumph it takes good men to do nothing. Peace through Strength. #MAGA Chemical weapons violates International Law. It was a must to respond. Trump isn’t interested in regime change or a protracted war. Trump is not an interventionist. But a response is needed - every presidential administration has done the same and will continue to do the same regardless of party. France and Britain complete the coalition, mind.

Stopping the killing of innocents by starting the killing of more innocents is a great response. Are you serious right now?

Note: The US has only accepted 11 Syrian refugees this year. So you can take that quote and shove it. Because if "we" really cared about Syria, we'd be using more than quotes and bombs and trying to keep those citizens contained in a country that's falling apart.

Obama’s red line, innit. “We have been very clear to the Assad regime, but also to other players on the ground, that a red line for us is we start seeing a whole bunch of chemical weapons moving around or being utilized.” - Barack Obama, 2012 Reagan has done the same. George H. W. Bush has done the same Clinton has done the same. George W. Bush has done the same. Obama has done the same. And now Trump is doing the same. Three strikes on chemical weapons facilities. Appropriate response. And of course the goal isn’t to kill innocents. Are you serious with a strawman argument and empty misguided rhetoric? Can you suggest a practical alternative?

Nobody involved in this shitshow gives the slightest fuck about 'innocents'. It's about oil and money as usual.
As Bob Dylan once said,
Democracy don’t rule the world
You’d better get that in your head
This world is ruled by violence
But I guess that’s better left unsaid

Beady’s Here Now Weren't you upset at Obama for authorizing military strikes without Congressional approval? What happened? Double standards, or are you just not cool with it when the black guy does it?

Isn’t it funny that the UK and US stand by and do nothing whilst Saudi Arabia bombs the shit out of Yemen?
But hey, the Saudis are our allies who give us billions every year and who are sitting on a huge pot of oil gold eh so those guys are ok, nothing to see there.

One could almost be lead to believe that state-democracy is an illusion and the entire system is based on violence and control with absolutely no value on anything else. It is nice to see that we're keeping the mass-murder money tree well watered, though.

It's all just mere dickswinging posturing (with lethal consequences) from the West to detract from their fucking terrible governance, without any real plan.
Though let's not pretend it's all just Western decadence like those wankers at Stop The War think. For sure, the actions of the inhumane Russia and Syria needs to be challenged but if Theresa May and Donald Trump is the best bet for a solution, then we're all fucked.

Does anybody really think that Trump is so concered about use of chemical weapons (if there was any use, they are winning, I don´t see no reason)? Like that he is sitting in his office and he really didn´t want to go to war but he is so upset for those people and he has to do something. Can anybody really believe in that?

I agree, if there were genuine 'morals' at play here, then Trump and May wouldn't be sucking up constantly to Saudi Arabia.

@driver7, I always think of this routine of Stewart Lee's when I see a flat earther or a climate change denier (to be fair, they're usually one and the same thing) on the internet:
Now, I don't know anything about zoology, biology, geology, geography, marine biology, crypto-zoology, evolutionary theory, evolutionary biology, meteorology, limnology, history, herpetology, palaeontology, or archaeology, but I think...

Just because someone reacts with shock/disbelief/disgust to something you just said, it doesn't prove that you're right. Just sayin'.

This also applies to holocaust deniers. “I dont know anything about history but I think.... that maybe all Jewish people went on vacation in the 40s”.
