have been faked and are false flags, part of a larger neocon "information warfare (aka psyops)" strategy. There appears to exist as yet no reliable evidence to the contrary. A thorough and proper investigation on the ground is very much to be desired.

So I feel disappointed to observe so much very dangerous warmongering, directly threatening Russia, here at the once-enlightened and -enlightening DU.

I foresee very dire consequences unless sanity prevails.

Hey, I guess anything is possible. But, that being said, I, myself haven't reached any belief that the US should be the only nation to respond to this. I am no war monger and don't like missile strikes and destruction just for the sake of appearing to be doing something.

But the thing is, the US is supporting an insurgency against the government of a sovereign state.

Russia has been invited by that government to defend that state.

He is telegraphing his moves so that the Russians can pull out their people and equipment. They might leave behind some old Syrian junk so that Trump can look tough but nothing really happen, like his last bombing campaign that took out 4 whole obsolete Syrian training planes and left a lot of holes in the ground.

Remember how Trump had attacked Obama in the past,
saying Obama told the 'enemy' what he was going to do?

16. Madness is these 2 tweets after the tweet warning Russia:

"Our relationship with Russia is worse now than it has ever been, and that includes the Cold War. There is no reason for this. Russia needs us to help with their economy, something that would be very easy to do, and we need all nations to work together. Stop the arms race?"



"Much of the bad blood with Russia is caused by the Fake & Corrupt Russia Investigation, headed up by the all Democrat loyalists, or people that worked for Obama. Mueller is most conflicted of all (except Rosenstein who signed FISA & Comey letter). No Collusion, so they go crazy!"


Truly nuts to start talking about how Russia needs us to help with their economy right after warning Russia to get ready for us to send missiles to Syria.

Does make sense he would lash out against Russia investigation since the only thing Russia has wanted to help their economy is for sanctions to be lifted so Putin & Co. can make more money and the Russia probe has halted any chance of sanctions relief..
