Dear Susan Sarandon:

[calimary]

146. THANK YOU.

What happened Thursday night was a knee-jerk reaction from seeing some rather poignant visuals, to do the same kind of quickie-quick fix demonstration he wants across the board. Gonna "fix" "Obamacare" on Day One, for example. This is the mentality of a guy who's used to owning his privately-held company and can just dictate what happens, RIGHT NOW, on any arbitrary whim - of HIS. He's finding out the hard way that government doesn't work like that.

I've been arguing with a couple of people - a good friend AND my husband - who both initially thought that "this is the one thing I can support..." and "yeah, he did good. Just a pinpoint strike. NOTHING MORE is needed. Can't go all out, anyway - if we take Assad out, ISIS moves in..."

I disagreed then, and I still disagree now.

Okay, we bombed ONE airfield - leaving its adjacent partner intact. We gave Russia advance notice and they warned Assad and everything we were targeting was allowed to move or get out of the way or take shelter from the bomb-storm to come. The same bomb-storm to come that they knew about ahead of time. I'm still trying to understand the sense of that.

And then what happened? Wasn't this supposed to end the gas-bombing of the civilians? Make it stop? Teach 'em a lesson?

So why then do we see Assad resuming the same damn bombing all over again? (Because, after all, we left all the other airstrips in Syria intact and evidently didn't bother bombing the chemical weapons depots. They remained untouched, too.)

SO WHAT WAS THAT FOR, THEN???????

The Syrian city of Khan Sheikhoun -- the site of Tuesday's chemical attack -- was hit by airstrikes on Friday and Saturday, according to two activists in the city and regional activist groups.
At least one woman was killed and three other people injured in Saturday's strike, two activists in Khan Sheikhoun said.
It wasn't immediately clear who conducted Friday's and Saturday's strikes.
