Russia knew in advance
- Thread starter tlwwake

So what do we make of this? Calling our shot to rub Trump's balls in Putin's face? Professional courtesy among imperialists so no ruskies would be on site?
So... Russia knew the gas attack was coming. Then, a russian drone was over the hospital where the victims were taken, then the hospital was bombed. Then Biff warned the Russians the air base would be hit, then hit the air base with 59 cruise missiles, and Syria resumed bombing from that airbase the same day.
Is that about right?

No idea if he's being serious but this. I call bullshit. Neither country has anything to gain in this action, nothing.
We were supposed to be having tax cuts, rebuilding our crumbling infrastructure, and the wall.
Not sure I agree with it, but I guarantee our notice to Russia was to ensure they had no troops present at that location prior to our attack. Hitting Syria is one thing, but killing Russian troops would lead to rapid and significant escalations.
I just wish people would be consistent in the amount of skepticism they have for the anonymous deep state. I think the correct amount of skepticism is a boat load, but I would settle for consistency.
Well, we used to call the "deep state" the "bureaucracy" but that's not sinister enough, so we adopted new nomenclature to help whip up conspiracies.
I move that instead of calling the minority party in Congress the "minority party" we collectively call them the "shadow mole." Does anyone second that?
It is true that it is not sinister enough to call the reason that the foreign policy consensus has not changed from Obama to Trump "bureaucracy."
I kind of thought that was the direction you were taking. I feel we have some on this board that have been.
Yet another anonymous "senior official" source. These "sources" are becoming the punchline.
