Russia and Iran warn US they will 'respond with force' if red lines crossed in Syria again

Looks like Syria got their big brothers to protect them from Trump firing anymore missiles. Then again, I wouldn't want to test that red line, unlike Obama's empty threats when his red lines were crossed many times by Syria.

What America waged in an aggression on Syria is a crossing of red lines. From now on we will respond with force to any aggressor or any breach of red lines from whoever it is and America knows our ability to respond well,” the group’s joint command centre said.

Seems reasonable to me.

Here is one: Link

Among other things said in the link. "Russian President Vladimir Putin and Iran's Hassan Rouhani said in a phone call that aggressive U.S. actions against Syria were not permissible and violated international law, the Kremlin said on Sunday."

it appears to be fake news since it draws its information from an unreliable 'news' source.

And people were wetting their pants because if Hillary got into office she would get us into another war. Who would have thought the guy screaming bigger military would look for ways to get America into another war? And shame on Obama for not attacking and invading yet another nation that did nothing to America.

The BBC is just as bad with the anti-Russian routine and Australian media isnt far behind I think we are not headed to a pleasant conclusion.

The Russians have been 'responding' since they began operating in country at the request of the Syrian gubment. The intruder here is the United States and the "Coalition".

This is a battle of attrition folks, waged by two superpowers and their proxies, only pretending to be a civil war or revolution for 'humanitarian' reasons.

US needs to put the name Assad in a nice big missile and then deploy it to where the rat is hidden in Syria, one missile just for him.

BAM***************

No casualties.

The Independent appears to be owned by former KGB officer and present day Russian Oligarch Alexander Lebedev. Worrisome news.

Then Obama should have kept his mouth shut instead of issuing numerous threats to Syria about gassing their own people, then doing nothing about it. That only emboldened Assad when he saw Obama was a spineless weasel.

USA! USA! USA!

Freedom, democracy and liberty will rain down on Syria with sun shine and rainbows just like Iraq......

Yeah.He continued, on and on, with those gas attacks.

Oh, wait.

So..

How long should a POTUS wait while innocent children and families are murdered by a dictator using chemical weapons?

I mean, you can't have your cake and eat it to. If Obama was being a pussy for not putting their feet to the fire, and Trump is being ' a dictator' for doing it, you have to stop pretending your interests are in the war's resolution.

Your interest is purely partisan and is manufactured by the media sources you consume.

Syria uses chemical weapons. The US bombs the operation. That seems like an appropriate response. They probably could have done a better job mind you.

But if there's one thing Trump should not be scared of, it's Iran and Putin making empty threats. Obama's diplomacy was weak at best. Let's not repeat that same error.

You could do that without killing Assad first. If that's your plan.

Or do you think that the Syrian military would just roll over on their back?

Your forgot Afghanistan too, you know that was the first target for liberation, not Iraq, Iraq was supposed to be the bonus, but hell what a bonus it became at the expenses of the tax payers.

The US actually needs to secure Syria and work with Russia to rid the country of these Daesh ass holes, Syria was working just fine before the war by proxy, I know enough people from there and people that have travelled there.. All have good things to say of the country pre war, of course people and orgs with their own agenda and will say otherwise..

I simply cannot see how ousting Assad is a good thing, it will just turn into another failed state with a power struggle led by psychopaths all hell bent on their own agenda who get funded by other psychopaths that will use them for their own gain. I bet before the war, Syria to many people was barley known about yet a mercenary army has invaded, killed hundreds of thousands, raped women and children, has a modern day slave trade and also allowed "moderate rebels" a foot hold. Yet we say the democratic leader of this nation is to be ousted, the picture to me just looks totally f#cked up....


Doing this stuff does not work, Iraq, Libya, Afgan, currently Syria then who will be the next????..
