France, along with the US and 7 other nations have reviewed their intelligence and confirmed a chemical attack took place in Douma. Obviously you lack a understanding of the authority of the President to approve such actions so that doesn't need to be highlighted further. You say this was an act of war against Russia yet the locations hit were not Russian FOB locations; so take a step off your hyperbole soap box. 

I find this a common thread of people who don't know enough to know they don't know what they're talking about. There will not be a war between NATO and Russia, especially over strikes against the well documented monster Assad. Russia does not have the means to conduct a war against NATO and if you're counting on support from China or Iran in any conflict with NATO you'll be sorely disappointed. China depends too much on trade to maintain order at home, Iran has zero ability to conduct any major war activities whatsoever, and technological gap between NATO and these nations is monumental. Not to mention Iran has zero desire for any conflict due to reasons too numerous to detail here. 

So continue gritting your teeth if it helps you deal with the exaggerated ideas you keep coming up with.  

On that night I'd seen multiple media outlets report Russian Trumps had entered Damascus and Trumps speech was so badly handled with information as to what he was bombing within Damascus, the concern was and still is valid. Although I'll admit, my concern was based on misinformation. I still believe this to be a preamble to a greater war than we've seen the last year. 

I do understand your concern regarding the possibility of a war and I can accept nothing I type will change your position on it. However I am a very dense person and I'll still try to ease your concerns. 

Russia cannot stand against NATO. Russia with Iran and China fully committed cannot stand against NATO. This is no secret and regardless of what opportunistic story is written on a website talking about the advancements in military technology from the Russian side, i.e. the S-400 air defense system, the fact is that they don't have the ability to defend themselves today against assets we've used for decades in multiple theaters, namely the B-1b bomber being the most recent aging asset used. I wish I could convey to you why I have zero concern because what limited information I know of our untouchable abilities in the air and sea, Russia has a far greater understanding that this isn't a fight they could ever hope to win in any measurable way.
