Syrian Chemical Weapons & Russian Threats

Well...

Much of this seems like posturing.

Putin basically has Syria back.

Trump isn't interested in regime change and just wants to clean up some bad spots before he leaves.

Doesn't appear to be any proof that the Syrian government did the attack.

But there will be a token response.
I hope your right on this one CB, I really do.

I must be wrong then Mr Trump.
I better just crawl back to my uneducated cave and listen to your superior opinion!

Yeah well, I've come to expect responses like this from you...

I'm simply stating the facts of my life, the cold war was not what you make it out to be to me, but I live in a different part of the world than you do, ever stop to consider that?...

Jesus your arrogant, you bloody shut me down, go back and read a post or two.
I have said "I had anxiety as a kid and found the cold war very stressful"

I politely asked your age and pointed out that "MY MEMORY" of those years were different from yours.
I politely said you are the first person I have met that said the cold war was not stressful.
No where did I get disrespectful, or dismissive.
At every point I refer to my perception and my experience.

You were not here in Australia growing up with me,
You have no idea what it was like here.
It was YOU that called nonsense to my experience,
Yet you accuse me of not considering the possibility of a different experience in a different place!

You point your nasty finger at anyone who disagrees, respond more aggressively than most of us here when push comes to shove. Look in the mirror Nivek, your not always right.

I have made a lot of bad posts here in the past but I did nothing bloody wrong this time.

Because you dismissed my experience of the cold war as nonsense.
Then in the next breath pointed out accusingly I live in a different part of the world and did I ever stop to consider that? Um, can you see the irony in that?
Have some humility and take ownership for yourself for once.
At least I apologize if I stuff up.
I was polite, up till the point you dismissed my opinion as nonsense.
This one is on you. Not me.

So now it's an opinion, but I was stating facts in my past, you seem to be all over the place today, cold war gitters?...

Now this keeps popping in the headlines, seriously, I would like to see this alleged proof the Russians have...I doubt really, if they have any proof, some imaginary claim to stir things up more...

Kremlin accuses BRITAIN of faking horrific chemical attack in Syria and claims it has 'proof' as Trump, May and Macron prepare to bomb Assad

  • Russia claims UK ordered local aid organisation to stage Douma chemical attack
  • Defence Ministry claims UK told White Helmets to fake a chemical bombing
  • Maj. Gen. Konashenkov, said images of victims were fakes staged with 'Britain's direct involvement,' without providing evidence

Is it my imagination or have we been thru all this before with the last US missile strike on Syria ? Its like watching re- runs.

To me it's ridiculous for any westerner to whine about how difficult the cold war was, tell that to those countries like Poland or the Baltics for instance who were under Soviet control...

It is like watching bad re-runs.

If the show wasn't worth watching the first time, watching it again is far more pointless - because you have been warned.

Trump just announced he has approved air strikes on Syria and the Assad regime. Hold onto your butts. This will turn into all out war. I guarantee it.

Well...

Little premature.

A limited strike on something remotely poison gas related would probably have the same effect as last time.

Appaently the strikes have already started. Give em' hell boys.

I would assume by announcing it that the bombing was already under way...
