Try to separate your bias here from what you know and nothing we know suggests that this was a conspiracy between Trump and Putin. (Again, if you don't believe the official reports, doesn't it make more sense that it was the Saudis via ISIL since the have done it before and have the most to gain from increased US aggression against Syria?)
Your the one talking about the need to separate ones bias? That's a real Monday move.

I've got to cop to being under-informed on the Saudis vs ISIL narrative. I wasn't necessarily trying to state that this was definitively a US-Russia job (even though that's exactly how my post reads); was just trying to make the point that there are a number of other narratives I'd believe before I buy into the "Assad attacked his people and Trump responded with swift justice" story. But your alternative theory is just as good as any.
Sending the navy to North Korea cos they're testing a middle also smacks of 'throw the press off the fact I'm a shit president, let's go to war with someone!'

Yes, and John Oliver made a great (if obvious) point that we should all be very worried that a President who thrives on positive press just got his first real round of applause for launching some missiles.

I wasn't trying to call you out on it or anything and I agree with you that the official narrative is weak on evidence so far...
"The fatal flaw of all revolutionaries is that they know how to tear things down but don't have a f**king clue about how to build anything."

Weird to think America would object to anyone bombing Japan excelt to chuckle that America did it first.
