Well, this does look very perilous. First, Trump goes on a tirade against the JCS after they reprimand him on Syria.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5584183/Trump-wants-Syria-dont-say-timeline.html


Trump's desire for a rapid withdrawal faced unanimous opposition from the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Pentagon, the State Department and the intelligence community, all of which argued that keeping the 2,000 U.S. soldiers currently in Syria is key to ensuring the Islamic State does not reconstitute itself.

But as they huddled in the Situation Room, the president was vocal and vehement in insisting that the withdrawal be completed quickly if not immediately, according to five administration officials briefed on Tuesday's White House meeting of Trump and his top aides.

The officials weren't authorized to discuss internal deliberations and requested anonymity.

If those aides failed in obtaining their desired outcome, it may have been because a strategy that's worked in the past - giving Trump an offer he can't refuse - appears to have backfired.

Rather than offer Trump a menu of pullout plans, with varying timelines and options for withdrawing step-by-step, the team sought to frame it as a binary choice: Stay in Syria to ensure the Islamic State can't regroup, or pull out completely.

Documents presented to the president included several pages of possibilities for staying in, but only a brief description of an option for full withdrawal that emphasized significant risks and downsides, including the likelihood that Iran and Russia would take advantage of a U.S. vacuum.

Ultimately, Trump chose that option anyway.

Now we have this alleged attack, no doubt with questionable timing. Trump is back in line, at least publicly.

By the lawless way of thinking Russia is responsible. If Russia wasn't "backing" Assad, then the players could peaceably decide how to carve up Syria for the masters behind the scenes. Since Russia wants to see Syria remain a sovereign state, children were sacrificed by the other side in order to change the game. So it's Russia's fault "ultimately" that the other side was forced to kill children to help their side.

What's more important? That Assad remains in power or children get to live? Russia made it's choice and it is ultimately responsible.

Anyway, that's how lawless wicked men think.

Trump likely made a deal with the Neos during the whole delegate fiasco and contested convention talk. He must be deluded enough to think that he keep them at bay. When they finally get sick of Trump's delays, they will off him stage right. Or Trump will do their bidding, but even I question that move since Trump's ego is too large to suffer such a colossal indignity,

Just look at the Pentagon. They blatantly ignore his demands. At best, we may get an Eisenhower like speech from Trump, but I doubt it. Like Ray McGovern said, Trump fears them greatly.

Despite conspiracy theories, still seems unlikely that he is being threatened, blackmailed behind the scenes (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?519224-CIA-Analyst-McGovern-Trump-is-Deathly-Afraid-of-the-Deep-State&p=6607354&viewfull=1#post6607354) and is acting against his will .. especially given that his loyal supporter Scaramucci few days ago in an interview on Stormy Daniel scandal said that Trump was "not blackmailable" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snCX2X0D9V8).

But Trump does, which means he's dumber than his base, or he isn't and he's just a coward.

I don't see any other likely truth in this situation.

There is of course the "He's playing 4D chess on a secret mission to save us behind the scenes against the deep state" with all the rationalizations that comes with, but-while not literally-I tend to agree with Ann Coulters position that these people who keep believing this nonsense need to be drowned.

Do you really think Trump wants to be George W. Bush the Sequel? The man's ego could not tolerate it. I think there is far more to this than meets the eye. Trump in typical Trumpian style is trying to deceive all sides. I speculate that Trump is neither a MAGA patriot nor a straightline Israeli flunky. But Trump is playing a very dangerous game, juggling all these balls in the air.

Trump: 'big price to pay' for Syria chemical weapons attack


Donald Trump warned there will be a “big price to pay” for a chemical strike in a rebel-held Damascus suburb that killed at least 42 people on Saturday, as the UK and France called for an urgent meeting of the United Nations security council in reaction to the the attack.

The security council will meet twice on Monday. Russia, a backer of Bashar al-Assad, also called for a session.

The atrocity came amid a barrage by regime jets, helicopters and artillery on the district of Douma, which the European Union said pointed to “yet another chemical attack by the regime” as it called for an international response.

At least 300 people were affected by the gas, medics in Douma said. Many of the 42 who died had been sheltering in the basement of a building that was struck by a projectile shortly after 7.30pm. Ill-equipped local doctors said they treated patients for suffocation, foaming at the mouth, dilated pupils and burned eyes.

Victims of the strike reported a strong odour of chlorine – an industrial chemical that has been dropped by regime helicopters throughout the war. However, Jerry Smith, a former UN weapons inspector who investigated previous chemical attacks in Syria, said the high death toll, the speed of death and convulsions shown by some patients suggested another more lethal compound – possibly organophosphate based – may have been used.

Sarin is an organophosphate chemical that has been repeatedly used in Syria – including in a mass attack on Khan Sheikhoun on 4 April 2017 and in Ghouta in August 2013. European intelligence agencies have gathered evidence that regime officials have mixed sarin and chlorine, which dilutes the gas while ensuring it remains a potent killer – especially if delivered in confined spaces.



Trump demanded that access be opened to Douma, the last of three besieged districts in the Ghouta area of Damascus to remain under opposition control. Access was necessary to verify what had happened and treat remaining victims, he said, writing in a tweet: “President Putin, Russia and Iran are responsible for backing Animal Assad. Big price to pay. Open area immediately for medical help and verification.”

His demand came a year to the day after he ordered a strike that saw 59 missiles crash into a Syrian air base thought to be the launching pad for the attack on Khan Sheikhoun. Trump had vowed to order another attack if chemicals were used again.

The craziest part of Israel’s attack on Syria is that it was against a base that has a known Russian military presence.
Russia in war with words to the US said they would retaliate to any strikes against them. Israel knowingly risked war with Russia

They are stupid and desperate for war.

Sen. Mike Lee (http://thehill.com/people/mike-lee) (R-Utah) is urging President Trump (http://thehill.com/people/donald-trump) to get congressional authorization before he uses military force to respond to an alleged chemical weapons attack in Syria.

“The use of chemical weapons absolutely requires a response from the United States,” Lee said in a statement. "But if that response is going to include military force, the president of the United States should come to Congress and ask for authorization before military force is used."

More like scapegoat for pre-meditated takedown of USA/UK unipolar order. It makes me wonder if that is happening sooner rather than later. USA probably feels this is doable based on backroom deals with all our "allies". But there could very well be a deeper deal that US/UK are not part of.

This isn't the end of the world, perhaps. Just the orchestrated economic and political destruction of USA/UK.

Russian military: no traces of chemical attack in Syria's Douma: Ifax

MOSCOW (Reuters) - The Russian military said on Monday it had found no traces of a chemical attack in the Syrian town of Douma, Interfax news agency reported.

The defense ministry said Russian military medics had examined patients in a hospital in Douma and found no symptoms of chemical poisoning, according to the agency.

Three possible scenarios at play:

1) Trump is using the alleged chemical attack as a precursor to finalize the partition of Northern Syria.
2) Trump doesn't really care for the Likud jews, but needs their backing. He will prepare and execute a toothless strike on non-strategic targets, so he can 'win' the public relations battle with the Zionist led media and Washington establishment.
3) Trump was blackmailed (Epstein?) and neutered before being given the GOP nomination. Now he's on autopilot completing the Bush Administration's mission statement for the Middle East.

Whenever I think you are about to wake up, u start with your wishful fantasies. This is the same game Bush and Obama have been playing except this time Trump is escalating it. He nominated one of the board members of Project for a New American century in John Bolton and somehow that doesnt convince u.

The most likely answer to Trump neoconish behaviour is the one staring you in the face and the simplest to understand. He is a neocon. His son in law and his family are friendly to the likud party, he was the only prominent american politician to endorse Netanyahu.

Sorry pal but the only ones being played are the people who still believe that Trump is somehow working against the zionists and deep state(whatever that means).

So Trump's foreign policy statements of non-intervention long before his Presidential campaign including advocating against intervention in Syria were all just an act? Not buying it.

That is not to say he could not be easily swayed into adopting the Neocon's foreign policy and enticed by prestige of being a military President. A man whose quest to be loved is currently and will get allot of love from entire anti-Trump Neocon contingent by playing by their rules.

The real mystery about this entire affair is.......What does Trump get from destroying Syria? His political career will be effectively over. His opponents on the right and left won't suddenly stop their daily onslaught.

Say what you want about Trump, but he's a survivor. I can't see him accepting the giant goat horns, unless his mental capacity has greatly diminished. There is a dynamic about Trump that he will use the jews for his advantage (as he has in the past) and vice versa. But to willingly accept career suicide and national shame for jews and the neocons?

To be frank with u, I dont think it makes any difference what was in his heart before he became president. The truth is that he gave off all the signs(to people who can discern it) that he was a neocon. Remember he supported the humanitarian war in Libya and when that one went bust like most of us (that can discern it) knew it would, he wised up and started condemning the Syrian war.

I have to say that he has more political smarts than Hillary but that doesn't make him a good person

Speaking shoulder-to-shoulder with French President Emmanuel Macron from Paris, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman announced his "readiness to work with allies on any military response in Syria if needed," after anti-government groups reported that the Syrian Army dropped a chlorine-filled munition which killed at least 60 people in the eastern Ghouta region last weekend.

“If our alliance with our partners requires it, we will be present,” said the Crown Prince, as he wrapped up a three-day visit to France.

The Russians have been hiding their S-400 batteries from prying eyes for quite some time. The Pentagon knows very little about it's capabilities. In 2013, with older models in place, General Dempsey warned Obama that any further aerial bombardment could be thwarted by Russian Air Defense in Syria. Eventually, Obama backed down.

When one says 'No', the racket ends. The US warmongers have to invade Syria because it's all about global intimidation. The Russians are ready however.

https://russia-insider.com/en/were-not-going-war-not-yet-last-nights-russian-tv-analysis/ri23024


What I heard on the Solovyov program is that the US military know precisely the positions of Russian cruisers, submarines, aircraft and missiles in the Middle East region, that is to say, they understand that the Russians are on a war footing and fully prepared to execute the deadly counter strike promised by General Gerasimov several weeks ago if the US dares to cross the Russian red lines and launch a strike against Damascus or other locations where Russia has its armed forces embedded with the Syrians.

The US generals, unlike the US politicians and media and US administration, are risk-averse if the outcome may be catastrophic. Accordingly, the strike Trump has promised to “avenge” the utterly phony chemical attack in Douma, Eastern Ghouta, will have another vector, most likely to strike against Iran, which Trump held up as the co-supporters of “Animal” Assad.

The Russians called it in March.


MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia said on Tuesday it had information that the United States planned to bomb the government quarter in Damascus on an invented pretext, and said it would respond militarily if it felt Russian lives were threatened by such an attack.

Valery Gerasimov, head of Russia’s General Staff, said Moscow had information that rebels in the enclave of eastern Ghouta were planning to fake a chemical weapons attack against civilians and blame it on the Syrian army.

He said the United States intended to use the fake attack as a pretext to bomb the government quarter in nearby Damascus where he said Russian military advisers, Russian military police and Russian ceasefire monitors were based.

Trump has not yet made a final decision on how the United States will respond the White House Press Secretary emphasized. Earlier on Wednesday, Trump tweeted that "missiles will be coming" in response to the alleged chemical attack in Syria and added that Russia should “get ready”. Sadners denied that his Twitter threats had created any problem. Sanders then said Trump had a number of options, not just military, and that he was assessing how to respond.

‘You’re a Murderer’: Protesters Disrupt Madeleine Albright’s ‘Fascism’ Book Tour
https://sputniknews.com/us/201804121063464437-Protesters-Disrupt-Madeleine-Albrights-Fascism-Book-Tour/

Even 17 years since she held office, protesters won’t let her forget what what they see as her crimes against humanity, and on Tuesday,
demonstrators disrupted her speech in Brooklyn, New York.

Albright is often described as a war hawk for helping to facilitate the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia in 1999, which was illegal and devastated the country.
She also expressed support for United Nations Security Council sanctions against Iraq over allegations of weapons of mass destruction,
which a humanitarian arm of the United Nations later said caused the deaths of 576,000 Iraqi children.

Lately, the former top diplomat has become known as an outspoken critic of US President Donald Trump.
Now, the first female secretary of state is touring the country for her new book "Fascism: A Warning."

Members of the International Action Center in New York City sat in attendance at Albright's talk, tweeting that they were "going to surprise" her. A woman's voice can be heard in video tweeted by the group, yelling "You killed half a million Iraqi children. You have blood on your hands!"

984160500496859136

"I made a stupid statement," Albright said before modifying her account of the children's deaths. "The person who killed the children in Iraq was Saddam Hussein."

"She was apologizing for having said it, not apologizing for having done it."

"So I was waiting for Madeleine Albright to come out — I was actually looking through the book at the time and honestly it's just a case for war.
It's a case for US imperialism. It's calling any and all movements abroad that are popular movements, regardless of their political character — so long as they're angry, she's calling that fascist… "

"One of the reasons why we had the action was because the Democrats and the Republicans at this point in time are really shilling for war," Fivek said. "They're shilling for war with Syria, they're shilling for war with Russia, and their shilling for war with Iran. Meanwhile, people are being gunned down at nonviolent unarmed protests in Palestine. So it was really important for us to bring up this political point in a room full of people who were there to hear somebody who should be in front of the [International Criminal Court], as far as we're concerned, talk about fascism."

Defense Secretary James Mattis says attack on Syria "is not yet in the offing"

Last Updated Apr 12, 2018 1:48 PM EDT

Defense Secretary James Mattis told Congress Thursday that he couldn't talk about military plans for retaliation against Syria because an attack "is not yet in the offing." While Mattis said that he believes Syrians used chemicals in an attack on Douma last Saturday, chemical weapons inspectors have not yet had access to the site.

"I believe there was a chemical attack. We're looking for the actual evidence," Mattis told the House Armed Services Committee at a hearing Thursday. "The OPCW (Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons) is the organization for the chemical weapons convention -- we're trying to get those inspectors in probably within the week. You know the challenges we face where Russia has six times in the U.N. rejected and made certain that we could not get investigators in." The OPCW said Thursday it will be on the ground investigating the suspected chemical attack beginning Saturday.

But Mattis added that even if the investigative team is allowed by the Bashar al-Assad regime to get to the site, "we will not know who did it -- they can only say they found evidence or they did not."

There have been several similar attacks this year, he told lawmakers, but the U.S. did not have troops in those locations because the U.S. is not engaged on the ground there. "So, I cannot tell you that we have evidence, even though we have a lot of media and social media indicators that either chlorine or sarin was used."

Germany, Italy Refuse To Join Syria Airstrikeshttps://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-04-12/germany-italy-refuse-join-syria-airstrikes


President Trump said Thursday that he will be holding another meeting on Syria today, and that he would have a decision "fairly soon."
Trump said Wednesday that he would have a decision last night following a meeting with Defense Secretary James Mattis and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff James Dunford.

As President Trump prepares for yet another meeting on Syria, we note that Mattis told the House Armed Services Committee that "we are not going to engage" in Syria's civil war, adding that "our role in Syria is the defeat of ISIS,” but "some things are simply inexcusable, beyond the pale" like a chemical weapons attack.
Mattis was responding to a question from Rep. Joe Courtney, D-Conn., who said "a gyration of comments coming out of the White House" is sending contradictory messages, and Mattis himself seemed to contradict the President as he "believed there was a chemical attack" in Syria, but the US is looking for evidence (clearly not proclaiming that Assad did it... or that it happened at all) (https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-04-11/there-wasnt-single-corpse-russia-claims-white-helmets-staged-syria-chemical-attack).
Mattis concluded that he would notify congressional leaders before any strike on Syria, adding that there's risk in any strike of it "escalating out of control."
The retired general said he would go to the White House after his hearing to help brief Trump on Syria.
Trump added that options outside of a military strike are being considered.
"We'll see what happens," Trump said, during a brief meeting with reporters. "It's too bad, the world puts us in a position like that." He added that a decision would come "fairly soon."
Early Thursday morning, Trump tweeted that the Syria attack "could take place very soon" (https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-04-12/trump-syria-attack-could-take-place-very-soon-or-not-so-soon-all) or "not so soon at all". Meanwhile, Russia has said it has evidence that Syrian rebels are in possession of chemical weapons stockpiles.


Never said when an attack on Syria would take place. Could be very soon or not so soon at all! In any event, the United States, under my Administration, has done a great job of ridding the region of ISIS. Where is our “Thank you America?”

It sounds like they're bickering over the battle plans. That's insane.
Even as insane as this situation is, arguing over battle plans on the eve of a strike is lunacy.

The S-400s are mobile. So why don't they play rope a dope for the first volley? Of course, there is some risk involved by allowing a first strike, but you have to think like the American brass. They aren't going to risk manned aircraft to take out the more dangerous aspects of the Syrian Air Defense.

With no active signal signature and some concealment, they can probably hide the S-400s and bait the Americans to come into the door.

This is the film that the MoD distributed to the journalists/audience at the close of his statement today.

If you still don't 'get' what he described,
it goes something like this:

The 'staging' at play was meant to fuse the 'actors' with 'real people'
TOGETHER
in a single, recorded 'public' event: at the Dhouma Hospital emergency room.

So:

ON APRIL 8, 2018:

1. There WAS a 'Real' detonation in a residential building with REAL victims of the blast and partial building collapse
2. These victims were suffering REAL wounds and smoke inhalation.
3. The victims of the blast event were being carried and transported by REAL bystanders to the staged blast.
4. The victims were being treated for the blast trauma wounds and smoke inhalation by on duty medical personnel
(2 personnel testifying in below vid.)
THEN... suddenly
5. 'Some guy' runs into the the treatment room and yells 'It was a CHEMICAL ATTACK!!!'
THEN
6. more 'guys' suddenly appear and start yelling, causing pandemonium and start 'HOSING PEOPLE DOWN'...
AFTER they suddenly appeared... they suddenly left....
7. the medical personnel resumed treatment including diagnostics and could find NO PATIENTS suffering from chemical exposure.
8. No deaths. No bodies.

Here are their testimonies:

Two of the characters that appear in the chemical attack video (fully recognizable in the original published by ISIS) tell what happened.

In conducting these strikes, we have gone to great lengths to avoid civilian and foreign casualties."
Then, Dunford said that the first target was a Syrian research facility, and adds that the US selected targets that would minimize risk to innocent civilians. He adds that attacks on multiple sites of Syria chemical weapons infrastructure "inflicted maximum damage."
The third target, which was in the vicinity of the second target, contained both the chemical weapons equipment storage facility and an important command post."
Meanwhile, the White House said that the US is confident the Syrian regime was behind the chemical weapons attack, based on:


media sources
victims’ symptoms
videos
“reliable information indicating coordination between Syrian military officials before the attack.”

Update 4: Joint Chiefs chairman Dunford said that while the strikes sought to minimize risk of Russian casualties, the US did not pre-notify Russia of the Syria strikes.
More from Dunford:


"We did have some surface-to-air missile activity from the Syrian regime."
"The US did not pre-notify Russian forces in Syria about tonight's kinetic activity."
"Russia was alerted of Syria strikes through "deconfliction" line in Qatar"
"U.S. forces in Syria did make adjustments to force protection levels ahead of the combined air operations against the Syrian regime."
"This wave of airstrikes is over. More information will follow in the morning."
"Manned aircraft involved in Syria operation"
"Pentagon will brief tomorrow will more strike details"

Mattis chimed in:


"We used a little over double the number of weapons this year than we used last year...We were very precise and proportionate, but at the same time, it was a heavy strike."
"I am confident the Syrian regime conducted a chemical attack on innocent people."
"Right now we have no more attacks planned"

So what are we doing here? Are we enjoying MAGA like you kept nattering on about during the primaries, when you posted a link to every poll you could find where Trump was on top and Rand Paul was under five percent? Or are we enjoying the fruits of having gotten behind a lesser evil, thus avoiding coming to the brink of WWIII?

Coming here to crow is kind of, like, a weird thing for you to be doing. Even if you are getting paid for it.

We post Paul polls with each cycle. Why would it be any different for 2016? Answer: Instructions given to you from the #nevertrump Neocon think tanks which can be pegged to the day in 2015 you and GunnyFreedom started that tactic.

He/she/they/it is still trying to deny carefully selecting the polls in which Trump did best and Paul did worst, even if that necessitated linking to the Dogshit, Nebraska Enquirer.
