I also thought he was being sarcastic! ;D ;D ;D ;D  It certainly got me using the brain matter to work out how shoes related to Syria; I came up with something about Muslims not wearing shoes in their Mosques! ;D ;D ;D ;)

So Trump has shown how he will press the button when required.  The question is does he know what to do next, after he has lit the touch paper and sent the diplomats running for a solution? :D :D

It is easy to start a war, hard to stop.  But at least he has shown a steely determination to be a strong President.  He is not for pushing over,  so a match for Putin :y

Putin today called it an 'illegal act of aggression' and the US was also branded 'a partner of ISIS' by al-Assad's spokesman

Yup, Putin is loving Trump.

Russia and America are due a bust up. If they do it in Syria, it would be very bad......for the Syrians, but not so bad for us.  :)

I have to say that they are not jumping up and down as much as I thought they would, although they have undertaken to bolster Syrian air defences. I'm just not sure that Russia really wants a major confrontation in Syria, I don't mean just in military terms, but in general. Yes side with Assad, but not too much ? It's just not worth it, even if the rebels were out of the way there would be so many other issues, ISIL, Kurds, Israel and who knows what else. Plus of course there would be Assad himself to deal with.

Trump is no longer the isolationist he was preaching during his campaign.

Reality has caught up with him.  If you are the superpower, that what happens.  Russia must know they have not got the capability to do anything about it as, from what I understand, Putin has not got the funds for a major fight. ;)
