Hopefully it's just like last time - a one-off set of targeted strikes to appease the warmongers.

I'm leaning towards thinking the alleged gas attack was a set up job because Assad was close to winning the war and Trump was about to end all American involvement, but I honestly don't know.

Even if definitively proved it was Assad I'd still oppose my country's intervention - it's simply not in our national interest to get involved and I'm sick of us spending a small fortune in money and lives getting involved in these Middle Eastern wars that have no 'good guys'. We just help turn these countries and their conflicts into even bigger messes than they already are - and for what? So our political class can preen themselves on the world stage? It pisses me off.

Just like Saddam.
The UK faked a intel report on behalf of the US to show he had weapons of mass destruction, then they went and invaded.
Now the country is worse off than it was back then. The US wanted controll of the oil fields.

America only cares about syria because they want to run a gas pipe through there from Qatar, so they can sell oil/gas to europe, as a way of attacking the russian economy.

So ofcourse russia is gonna back the guys saying "no" to the gas pipes, and ofc america is gonna side with the ones that want the pipe.

Its nuts.
This shouldnt lead to a war.... hopefully it doesnt.
The worse part imo, is all the refugee's europe has to take in, when america decided to start wars in the middleast.
