An interesting and encouraging way to look at the situation and it actually makes sense. I can't help but keep hold of a bit of faith that Trump is actually part of the plan to free us from the bullshit system. I know it's a long shot and goes against everything I think I know about the way the system works but a guy's gotta have hope, and I hope you're right.

Thanks for the insight. I'd not really considered things from this angle.

The entire problem I have at this moment is that is it claimed that the Syrian People

The day of the attacks, the Syrian people are reported to have danced in the street. This is not a typical consequence of a population suffering from a substantial bombing by US forces.

But I Only have seen one photo with a small group of men on the back of a truck/suv with flags, being circulated as evidence of dancing in the streets. It reminds me of many people in Texas who were flying large flags from their trucks after 9/11. Were those guys dancing in the streets? I think not.

I have looked around a bit and seen other pics, and watched the report of OAN who sent a reporter in and spoke with folks on the ground. The reports of Syrian people being overjoyed seem to be borne out, and substantiated.

Ok but I think that everything is staged just like the fake chemical attacks. There is something much bigger going on. I have a gut feeling about this and Syria is just a distraction.
Honestly you an I can produce a staged event anytime we desire. Think about it.

@valued-customer Yes, the Syrians were overjoyed, b/c the Syrian air defenses were shooting down the missiles! There's also many social media posts from the time of the airstrikes of Syrians mocking Trump & the US strikes, so I don't think they were happy we were dropping bombs, but that the strikes failed miserably in the eyes of the Syrian people (and Israel as well!).

This seems to be correct. However, I note that the US/Allied missiles were used as cover by Assad and Putin to conduct assaults on the terrorists, reclaiming Ghouta for Syria at that time.

While the perceptions of civilian non-combatants are obviously and notoriously controlled by the statements of politicians and reports of wholly owned enemedia, I believe the actual truth to be other than what the public is told.

The only reason I mention the perceptions of the Syrian people is that had the attack significantly harmed them, they would not have been happy. The US is capable of such an attack, and did not prosecute it.

Thus, the US was not intent on harming the Syrian people in the latest attack, and every indication exists that the attack was coordinated with the Syrian and Russian governments in order to destroy terrorist bases in Syria--a strategy completely opposite what has been American foreign policy since at least 9/11.

I do not claim this is definitive proof of Trump's opposition to the policies of prior regimes in the US, but that this is evidence that such a policy change may have been undertaken.

Thanks!

I don't support any war. It is too bad takes many lifes.

I agree with you. However, I also do not support cutting people's arms off. It is bad for people.

Unless their arm is so damaged by some accident, or is infested with an incurable disease, that leaving the arm attached to them will kill them. Under those circumstances I will support whatever best secures the life of the person, even if that involves removing their arm.

When I was young, a Japanese tourist got in a snowmobile accident that tangled his arm in the wreckage of his snowmobile. Alone, with no way to contact anyone for help, and deep in the wilderness, with temperatures plunging far below freezing, he chewed his arm off, and walked away alive.

There are times when war is the best option for survival.

I am unconvinced that any of the present wars ongoing meet such criteria for the peoples involved.

Thanks!

and provided carefully coordinated cover for a combined Syrian and Russian operation to root out the remaining mercenaries left over from the prior administrations adventurism.

Where do you have this information from?? Not that I don't believe it, but it would be like the first positive geo-political action that happened under Trump.

In my feed is a post by @aggroed, in which he provides information from a Twitter user @anon-decoder. I have verified some of the information @anon-decoder related as best I can, and have not seen anything that proved anything related by @anon-decoder false.

Multiple sources which you can search out relate the simultaneous Syrian and Russian assault on Ghouta and other terrorist holdouts during the attack by the US. This strongly colors my consideration of Russian condemnations of the US attack.

It may be the first positive geopolitical action you have seen resulting from Trump administration actions, but I do not agree that it is the first. Not long ago Trump was bragging about the size of his 'red button' compared to Kim's, but shortly after that, Kim has offered to denuclearize, and Korea may well be bent on a path to unification.

I suspect US policy as effected under Trump has had something to do with that.

Thanks!

I really hope you are right about this one. Normally Alex Jones would be on top of this, but he seems to be coming out very much against Trump on this specific attack.

So he either does not share the same views, or he's playing that he's against Trump's move to add to the illusion that Trump has been absorbed by the Deep State.

It seems like the intel on the ground would get to the people that matter in short order. So, if that's the case I wouldn't expect Jones to need to keep up the act for very long, if it is in fact an act.

Another thing to add, the people dancing on the streets, that whole scenario could have been prearranged propaganda designed to add some fog to the war. Trump is insanely good at keeping people guessing.

All you say here is very true, and something I note with suspicion about the dancing in the street is that the story appears to be highly coordinated across multiple outlets. This is very suspicious to me, and reminds me of the recent video showing a great many Sinclair news outlets all talking about fake news being dangerous for our democracy, using exactly the same script.

There is propaganda being spun. Of that I have no doubt.

The clincher for me is Putin. He's not a poker player. He doesn't bluff. Russia stated prior to the attack that it would respond militarily to any attack, including against sources of missile launches.

Russia did not engage any sources of Allied launches. Putin also didn't just sit on his hands and observe the attack. He ordered a coordinated attack against terrorists during that attack. He could not have done this without absolute confidence that what happened would happen.

Another corroboration is that over 100 cruise missiles were launched by the US, and I have not heard of one fatality resulting from that. I have heard that 6 people were wounded. That is almost unbelievable, that such a powerful attack could result in so little damage to the Syrian people.

All I can do is look at what I can see, and judge therefrom. I cannot speak for Jones, but note that his initial reactions are based on very early reports that could have not related all of this information, since most of it is only available in the aftermath of the attack. Had the only information I had been that the US was launching cruise missile attacks on Syria, I probably would have sang a duet with Jones.

Once you begin a journey on a particular path, it is more difficult to switch to a different path than it is to simply start your journey on a different path. I wasn't encumbered by first reports of military action in my consideration of the information I received. Jones is far better informed than I, and was. More than this I cannot say.

Thanks!
