Will Trump bomb Assad?

I think military action against Assad is likelier than military action against NK, honestly. Per what I've read, the talk re: Syria is military whereas on NK Trump and co. are exploring tougher sanctions a la the Iran sanctions regime

There are Russian troops in Syria. You probably already knew. Just in case you didn't

I'm well aware, thank you

If US planes start attacks on Assad positions, Russian systems will easily shoot down some of them.

possible, but that is part of every operation.

i guess all of us are on the same line, if the US really wanted to conquer Syria, it easily could. Would be harder if Russia REALLY pushed back but that is highly unlikely, imho.

and the russia contingent in syria has decreased a LOT since the last year....now the operation is mostly run by iranians.

There are still about 30 Russian war-planes, Russian modern anti-air missiles (i'm not sure that USAF can overcome it without huge losses) and 2000+ soldiers.

FWIW the operations under discussion seem to be cruise missile oriented rather than planes

Trump wont bomb Assad.

Donald will assassinate him with Ninjas.

When the s##%t hits the fan, who do you call?

My mum rented the VHS for this movie for me when i was 12.

After i watched it, my destiny was clear.

I'll just say that if a pack of ninjas descend on Damascus to kill Assad with throwing stars at Tump's orders, then The Donald has my vote in 2020
