MSNBC just looping the cruise missile footage provided by the pentagon

until there is actual literal time for anything else to come out, and given that americans (and all consumers of american media so basically everyone) are conditioned to react to ships firing off cruise missiles with a warm swell of patriotism, the news ain't gonna have anything useful or interesting

come back when we're talking about reactions from the syrian government or something

Didn't stop them from taking that angle when a certain other president blew some poo poo up while there was a scandal going on.

But seriously though is it that

A) cruise missiles are way weaker than I think
B) the air base is like a giant city
C) they blew the entire base into dirt and then blew up the dirt a few times over?

WASHINGTON — Thick with tension, the conversation this week between Stephen K. Bannon, the chief White House strategist, and Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law and senior adviser, had deteriorated to the point of breakdown.

Finally, Mr. Bannon identified why they could not compromise, according to someone with knowledge of the conversation. “Here’s the reason there’s no middle ground,” Mr. Bannon growled. “You’re a Democrat.”

yea no clue who Sam's watching but everyone's reaction I've seen has been confusion and a lingering worry that our stupid president can flip course entirely so easy.

you literally think a person saying their NBA team of choice being better than the fucking 76ers is a 'schtick'

a literal thing you think.


Show me military equipment being destroyed because telling the Russians in advance means the Syrians probably moved all their planes, etc. away from the airfield.

guys, Trump was just making sure we weren't being wasteful with our tomahawk missiles. he just fired the ones that were a day away from expiring.

Inventory gotta be moved. This tomahawks sell by date was about up. It's like making gumbo and dumping everything in it because it's about to expire and I'll be damned if I throw out these Frozen mixed veggies from 6 years ago but then you also have your family and dog poo poo int the pot

I mean yea, even if we erased that airfield from existence forever, it wouldn't change that.
At best this is a warning that gets taken seriously. At worst Trump continues to escalate into a real war.

He was talking about ISIS, which is basically the biggest fear of Joe Cornshuck in Kansas. No one in America is afraid of Assad gassing us.

probably the missiles are weaker than you think, and yeah air bases tend to be spread over areas the size of small cities
