Trump Orders Syrian Military Strikes, 3 Waves Of Airstrikes Launched At Various Targets – #WW3

I’ve told you before the election that Donald Trump, like Hillary Clinton, is a Freemason and an Illuminati puppet.

On Friday the 13th, how appropriate!!!

And what could possibly go wrong now???

“If there is a strike by the Americans, then we refer to the statements of President [Vladimir] Putin and the chief of staff that the missiles will be downed and even the sources from which the missiles were fired.”

– Russian ambassador to Lebanon Alexander Zasypkin

– President Trump Orders Military Strikes, Huge Blasts Heard In Damascus:

Summary:

• Around 9pm ET on Friday, April 13, the US, UK and France launched attack on Syrian regime targets
• Strikes targeted regime bases and chemical weapon production facilities in Damascus and Homs
• The Strikes consisted of 3 waves of attacks and are now complete
• Russia was not pre-notified about tonight’s “kinetic activity”
• Double the number of weapons was used compared to last year’s Syria strike, when 59 Tomahawk missiles were launched.
• Regime and Russia condemn what they call a ‘flagrant violation’, but have not retaliated so far.

Update 7:  Russia responds. Here is the full statement posted by Russia’s ambassador to the US, Anataoly Antonov:

The worst apprehensions have come true. Our warnings have been left unheard.

A pre-designed scenario is being implemented. Again, we are being threatened. We warned that such actions will not be left without consequences.

All responsibility for them rests with Washington, London and Paris.

Insulting the President of Russia is unacceptable and inadmissible.

The U.S. – the possessor of the biggest arsenal of chemical weapons – has no moral right to blame other countries.

• Dismantle the chemical weapons program

Update 4:  Joint Chiefs chairman Dunford said that while the strikes sought to minimize risk of Russian casualties, the US did not pre-notify Russia of the Syria strikes.

More from Dunford:

• “We did have some surface-to-air missile activity from the Syrian regime.”
• “The US did not pre-notify Russian forces in Syria about tonight’s kinetic activity.”
• “Russia was alerted of Syria strikes through “deconfliction” line in Qatar”
• “U.S. forces in Syria did make adjustments to force protection levels ahead of the combined air operations against the Syrian regime.”
• “This wave of airstrikes is over. More information will follow in the morning.”
• “Manned aircraft involved in Syria operation”
• “Pentagon will brief tomorrow will more strike details”

Mattis chimed in:

• “We used a little over double the number of weapons this year than we used last year…We were very precise and proportionate, but at the same time, it was a heavy strike.”
• “I am confident the Syrian regime conducted a chemical attack on innocent people.”
• “Right now we have no more attacks planned”

Mattis adds that “I want to emphasize these strikes are directed at the Syrian regime. In conducting these strikes, we have gone to great lengths to avoid civilian and foreign casualties.”

Then, Dunford said that the first target was a Syrian research facility, and adds that the US selected targets that would minimize risk to innocent civilians. He adds that attacks on multiple sites of Syria chemical weapons infrastructure “inflicted maximum damage.”

In total, Targets were specially associated with the Syrian regime’s CW program. These included:

• Scientific research center in the greater #Damascus area.
• Chemical weapons storage facility west of #Homs.
• Chemical weapons equipment storage facility and command post west of #Homs.

The third target, which was in the vicinity of the second target, contained both the chemical weapons equipment storage facility and an important command post.”

Meanwhile, the White House said that the US is confident the Syrian regime was behind the chemical weapons attack, based on:

• media sources
• victims’ symptoms
• videos
• “reliable information indicating coordination between Syrian military officials before the attack.”
