So, the US is just one country among many.
All countries should condemn this type warfare - - gas/chemical attacks.
But, why should the US be the one to retaliate via bombing?

i was just wondering how this whole thing works. so lets say hypothetically, daesh sets off chemical attack, msm says assad did it, then us attacks assad, making russia and iran irate. sounds like a whole can of worms, and the lids off....
You just pinpointed why Trump should have stayed out of this.

Because the US is the only country that enforces international law.
That's the exact reason many see NATO as obsolete, they are not willing to enforce law with military action even when diplomacy always fails.

This is an absolute reckless act with no justification.
The deep Nazi state forced Trump to do it because of his bad press.
So there going to risk a war with Russia, a potential world destroying event just for this deep state political act against Assad without any clear proof he used gas.
No investigation
We are in trouble folks
God help us

Do you believe what you are saying? How can you enforce international law by constantly braking it?

We are NATO.

Trump goes on a rampage and fires 59 Tomahawks. More than 30 were intercepted by SA-22 Greyhounds near Tartus.

Any source for that? I cannot find anything about intercepted Tomahawks, but that might just be me.

Yeah. You are nato. No one questioned that. The question was: " how can you enforce international law by constantly braking it?"

The US was enforcing international law, I guess you want to see us punished for doing the job of enforcement, since we are NATO.

The public has no-idea how well planned these things have to be...because defenses are always in place. James "Mad Dog" Mattis planned yesterday's attack personally.
Sources please?
Certainly.

The proposed airstrike was prepared by U.S. Central Command, which oversees U.S. military operations in Syria
