Apparently, in response to another gas attack in Syria - Israeli fighter jets blitzed a Syrian airfield so quickly and with such stealth that even Russia did not know who or what the hell it was!
The only positive side is that they're fighting their own battles. This means none of our-boys lives were lost.
Fingers crossed we stay out-of-it.

Yeah but is there ever good news from that part of the globe? Heck if it isn't North Korea, Iran, Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, Vietnam, the Germans, Russia and them Japanese pouring toxic stew into the ocean then what else in the ways of "good news" is coming out of there?
Perhaps the President needs to fly over to Israel and drink some expensive bourbon with BiBi, with full on gift exchanges and a royal reception - just so it has the same stink on it as North Korea and China getting together.

You know, after Trump's most recent statement about launching missiles into Syria, then doing a complete 180 by saying it might never happen, it really reminds me of the kind of games
that North Korea's little Kim plays. Then again, we have the deep-state trying to take down the President at any given moment and between that and the President's Tweets it really
feels like I am living in an episode of The Naked Gun.

I'm sure that Mr.Trump has some good qualities SELLC. I'm sorry that it seems he's letting everyone down, but for now at least, let's hope he can start making some correct decisions, & regain some respect worthy of a President of the free-world.

I'm sure that Mr.Trump has so many people climbing in-&-out of his ass, that "letting-one-rip once-in-a-while to clear the passages" is all he's doing.
Of course a president does have a duty of care for his citizens, & for sure his actions & tweets in particular are questionable.
I don't think that he's been allowed to settle into his job, but then again, how do you settle into a Presidency ?...
Possibly a wider choice of presidential candidates will appear for ya'll in a couple of years.

It's getting even more creepy now... Russia is trying to blame the UK for the attack! It's getting to the point someone where reason is going out the window...
What is your take?

On the current situation, I'll have to read some news up-dates I'm sorry...However...
Check-out "World Nuclear News", as this is where the big-bux is distributed. Any country that's taking-on Nukes is under pressure to do so...No one wants Nukes, & yet 200-new plants are under construction etc etc etc. The interesting part is what countries are active in this industry.
Africa has a number of Uranium mines that supply the industry ( on both sides, East & West ), & is at present being divided-up yet again by the super-powers. In this instance, IMO, the removal of NATO will allow Russia to gain financial security for a long, long time, by having a foot-hold here, & elsewhere.
As for the present situation, world catastrophe events always increases fear in people, & hence, we look for leadership in our governments to over come our fear. This secures their right to govern the way they do.
I do not have a crystal-ball I'm sorry, but I do think all will be OK.
