The US warned the Russians ahead of Syria missile strikes: Official

The U.S. warned the Russians before launching at least 59 tomahawk missiles aimed at Syria, NBC News reported, citing a U.S. official.

The strikes, which hit an airfield near Homs, struck aircraft and infrastructure including the runway, NBC reported. There is no word on casualties yet, but no people were targeted, the official told NBC.

No Russian assets were targeted, according to the report.

Russia's deputy U.N. envoy, Vladimir Safronkov, warned earlier Thursday of "negative consequences" if the U.S. carried out military strikes on Syria over the attack.

tRump had to confer with Russia. He doesn't do anything without asking his handler first. I will not watch this fucking stupid man puff out his chest.

13. Of course he did. It was a dog and pony show.

I can't help but think this is a set-up for Dumpy to improve his image. These three people are sociopaths, and have no empathy for those who were killed. They are pawns. He would not make a move without Putin's blessing. The false flag is here, but it's not on our soil. It's somewhere the evidence of Russian involvement can be hidden.
