Shutting down which US weapons?
You think America is a Banana Republic.
I am extremely suprised bro.

He thought America, British and French military wouldn't have calculated the defense capabilities of Syria before embarking on such missions.

Of course, it's obvious that the chemical attack was staged, probably by Israel to get America to stay involved in the Syrian war.
Trump had announced that he will pull US out.
Syria had no reason to use chemical weapon since they are already winning.
I hope Russia responds appropriately to the aggression from the US, France and Britain.
You must hate the Russian people for suggesting that grin

AMERICA HAS FAILED!!! UNCLE PUTIN IS THE BOSS cool

No Chemical Weapons ANYWHERE! Only Western Propaganda.
Thank God for Russia, America would have been pushing their imperialistic Agenda on this world anyhow they like if not for them. But Russia and the Syria situation has de-stabilized that Monopoly.

Before you quote me, Educate yourself first on the REAL reason for the war.. Read this:

http://affinitymagazine.us/2017/04/08/the-real-reason-why-theres-war-in-syria/

When you've become aware of the FACTS, then we can talk.

Your link is someone's opinion.

Together they will destroy the ancient Syria.

Arab spring started in Tunisia, that president resigned and there was peace.

Sometimes you need to let go. If Asad had taken the step of Tunisia and Egypt it would have been history by now but the military there chooses politics.

While hasn't Russia stopped the war since? Let them be there testing their weapons.

Three countries were involved. Britain and France with missile carrying aircrafts and America with surface to ground missile. The Russian were informed to evacuate their personal before the strike, according to the French foreign Secretary

Even Russia don't have the full capacity to divert that type of missile yet.

Read a little more about international politics.

The source of the information of the news you quoted was Syrian state television.

You actually believed the missile didn't not reach its target, yet many officials in Russia and Syria are fuming at the lunch of the missile

You are the one that should read more about international politics.
You are attacking a place and you are giving warnings?

Doesn't that tells you that they knew Russia will retaliate if a single Russian military personnel is killed? Who wants a confrontation.

Baba the missiles didn't do the work. Most were shot down.

Russia fuming is because this is flagrant abuse of power by America and co.

And those of you 'elevating' your country, what meaningful things have you contributed other than looting the treasury and carting the loot away to Europe. Your 'patriotic' President and his family have been busy patronizing European hospitals and you are here barking at the wrong tree. Hypocrites all over the place.

The US already have the whole area mapped out.

In any area of Syria where there is significant Russian defenses, the US would send loads and loads of cruise missiles right from the sea to their targets in mainland Syria.

Russia would shoot down some, but most will still go through.

It has been working since.


Sending fighter jets would be more precise though, but America wants to avoid a scenario where Russia would shoot down its jets by mistake and America would have to retaliate.

What is this one even saying? Can't you Read? 13 Of their Missiles just got DESTROYED and you're here spitting gibberish. How do you think those missiles were destroyed? by Syrian air power alone? The era of US dominance is over and special Thanks to Vladmir Putin and Russia for making that happen. And if them try "Anyhow" them go see "Anyhow". THIS IS NOT LIBYA!!!

Do you know the number of missiles fired? Sit down in Nigeria and be flexing muscles.

NATO went to Libiya not USA.

It was obviously fired by the jihadist ..Assad has no reason to fire chemicals at this stage in the war

Don't mind them. Sitting in Nigeria and flexing muscles.

If Asad had resigned like Mubarak of Egypt and Ali of Tunisia this would have been history.

Together they will destroy that country.

It's a pity.

The sabre rattling grows. America, alongside France and Britain, around 3AM,strikes Syria's chemical weapon positions. Russia threatens to retaliate. She boasts of 2000 active nuclear warheads that would turn the whole of the US to ash in 30 mins. Trump made it - the strikes- tepid. So, this will pass and WW3 is put on hold, at least, for now.

Putin was not kidding either. Shutting down US weapons is enough response already.

As Russia promised, I hope they go further to destroy the source of the cruise missile attacks. It would be interesting to watch a humble Trump on CNN. Thank God for Putin.

Russia cannot stop America from hitting their targets in Syria. They can't.

Russia is dominated by a factor of 5. Aside from the US, you also have UK ,France carrying out raids too.

Do you know Russia is a permanent member of the security council for a reason. grin

Do you know anything about any agreement that ended the cold war between America and Russia at all. I.e. the nuclear weapons race.

America has prevented Russia from joining world trade organization for years, America is currently imposing economic sanctions on Russia along with its western alliance, why haven't Russia attacked America for that reason?

I advised you to read international politics and rules, you are busy writing inconsequential things.

Perhaps you may even not understand why America didn't want to hit Assad directly and why Russia will also avoid directly hitting any NATO insulations in Syria either.

if the missiles had missed it target, Russia wouldn't have made fuss about it.


Three great military powerful countries were involved with air to ground missiles and surface to ground missiles.

Exactly, the calculations would have been made before embarking on such missions.

Although, the French and the royal air force of Britain carried out a air raid on their targets.

Clearly you’re living in a cave.
North Korea is no match for America. The hunger in NK alone is devastating enough, talk more of a full blown out war with The U.S.

NK had to listen to China and back down- sanctions has finished them.

And why do you think a war mongering nation like US has not attacked North Korea? Since the Vietnam war, the US carefully picks soft targets. They know better not to attack NK.

Russia don't have military capacity to face US and its allies.US and its allies which include UK,France,Japan,Israel,Germany and other NATO countries will decimate Syria in few months if they go into full confrontation.Russia is aware of that, stop putting hope on Russia that is poor economically and don't have the strength to face NATO.

Russia has thwarted most of these missiles and that is the fact.

So you are happy that Russia bullied innocent neighbouring countries?

And when those countries run to NATO looking for America's protection, you would claim America is trying to be provocative.

Stop elevating Russia of what they cant do, the war is not between Russia and US, Russia is a poor country that cant face US and its allies military power.

The war in Syria is between Shia muslims and Sunni muslims

The US government just want Assad to stop using chemical weapon against the Sunnis, the US is also backing the Saudi Arabia wahabis jihadist sunni muslims to topple the Shia mulism led Assad government of which Russia and Iran is backing.

This is very amateurish. The US will use algorithms to map, locations and frequency of the missile defences and the smart cruise missiles will avoid them. The Israeli bombing a few days ago was part of the measures to test and assess these defences. Pls watch the next waves of missiles and count progressively smaller no of missiles intercepted.

You made a lot of sense

Some things never change.

We all had a similar argument 15 years ago. Before invasion of Iraq. Many said USA will crush Iraq in no time.

My argument was crush Saddam and his army yes, but replace him with whom? Who will stabilize Iraq after the war? It sounded like a rhetorical question then.

How will Muslims worldwide (aside US allies in the Gulf) react to invasion of Iraq? Only few took my question seriously.

Well, we all now know better. Terrorism ballooned and still raging till now. Including ISIS, AQIM, Boko Haram, etc.

Again after all these new strikes and possible quicker exit of Assad, what will happen to Syria that is already battered? 15 to 20 years of further civil war to rival Somalia? Libya is still there as a recent reminder.

Only time will tell.




And Trump was already trying to run out of Syria before some clever devils, probably Israel, staged the chemical attack to keep America from leaving.
