Kem Livingston the ex-Mayor of London is worth quoting before I write anything else.He says he does not trust the Americans with anything.He points out that in 1964, the then president Lyndon Johnson engineered the Tonkin Gulf incident.He used it as a ruse to bomb North Korea but despite this, the US was booted out of Vietnam.20 years later the facts have come out that the Tonkin gulf incident was fabricated. This is the harsh reality and when Donald says he has proof that Assad was responsible for the gas attack, it just can't be believed.

Why did not Trump wait for the investigation report? Assad has denied the attack and the Russians have said that the gas containers were stored by the rebels which when hit by Assad's bombs exploded.Thus the matter needs investigation, yet Donald ordered 59 cruise missiles to strike and hit Syria.About a dozen are killed, but more important the airfield is degraded for use.Who is the winner? Not Donald but the ISIS.Al-Baghdadi and his ilk are laughing up their sleeves.at the foolish act of the US president.

Donald has an ax to grind.He wanted to show that he is a strong man and in the process ordered 59 cruise missiles to blast off.These were fired from 2 destroyers sailing in the eastern Mediterranean sea.The missiles hit the targets and Donald perhaps must be feeling he has done a big thing.The Russians are incensed and so is Iran.The Sunni Muslim states are happy as they always wanted Assad out.In any case, Donald is bolstering a Sunni alliance.The sad part is that he has forgotten about Daesh and the Islamic State. In the process, he has defanged the man who was the biggest opponent of the ISIS and above all was secular.Even close followers of Donald, like Nigel Farage, have turned against him including dozens of others.They are aghast at his action.

Donald Trump has done incalculable harm to America.He has opened another front in Syria and he is changing his tunes every day.Two days back he had said, removin assad was not a priority and today he says that Assad must be banished.A leader who changes his opinion like the wind cannot be a stable leader. America is in deep trouble and one wonders how the future will unfold.
