It seems unlikely that he will do nothing, since that would result in worldwide humiliation.\u00a0 Yet, he is clearly hesitating.\u00a0 Perhaps the following article explains why:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pravdareport.com\/hotspots\/conflicts\/07-04-2017\/137411-russia_usa_nuclear_war-0\/\">http:\/\/www.pravdareport.com\/hotspots\/conflicts\/07-04-2017\/137411-russia_usa_nuclear_war-0\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>We do not know the effectiveness of this system.\u00a0 Putin said that he will shoot down any missiles launched by the U.S. That should not necessarily be viewed as an idle threat.\u00a0 Putin may believe he is capable of doing that.\u00a0 The United States may believe he is capable of doing that. Perhaps the U.S. is trying to negotiate a deal with Putin where we can strike Syria and punish them without an extremely high risk military conflict.<\/p>\n<p>If we launch missile and airstrikes against Syria and Russian air defense shoots down our missiles and planes, it will be beyond catastrophic.\u00a0 Since World War II the primary thing that has kept us safe is the ability of our military to defeat any air defense system.\u00a0 During both Iraq wars the U.S. states quickly destroyed the soviet designed air defense system which is the reason we scored quick and decisive victories. If countries like North Korea and Iran believe they are immune from attack by us we are in serious trouble.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, if we launch missile and airstrikes against Syria and the Russia air defense systems do not work as advertised that would be a major humiliating event for Putin.<\/p>\n<p>It seems logical that the U.S. will have to either get an agreement from Putin to not use those air defense systems or the U.S. will have to begin any mission by taking them out.\u00a0 There are probably some very intense meeting going on in both Moscow and Washington today asking a really important question.\u00a0 What are our real capabilities and what are the real capabilities of the S400 system.\u00a0 There is a lot more at stake than whether or no Assad, again, dumped chemical weapons on people.<\/p>\n<p>Congress should be uniting around this President and showing a unified front to the world.\u00a0 Instead people who should know better are distracted by an over-the-hill porn star and a former FBI Director foaming at the mouth with his hatred for the President who dared fired him.<\/p>\n<p>No wonder there are reports of Trump administration cabinet members meeting for prayer.\u00a0 Seems more than appropriate.\u00a0 Unfortunately the silence can\u2019t last much longer and these are very scary times.<\/p>\n<p>TDM<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Russian ships have pulled out of Syrian ports on a \u201ctraining exercise.\u201d https:\/\/www.msn.com\/en-us\/news\/world\/russian-warships-have-left-port-in-syria-out-of-fear-for-their-safety-after-trumps-missile-threat\/ar-AAvO87g Air traffic has been halted in the area.
