    Well, an expected development, look like Kremlin kleptocracy has provided the Alawite dictator Assad with Soviet made chemical weapons. .... is it a pure case for the Hague war - crime tribunal ? Comments?

    The cannisters are marked differently, in case you didn't notice.

    why because a shadow would be hard to copy into the other objects on the ground, also where is the smoke rising coming from behind the canisters?

    It doesnt surprise me. With any conflict there is always a degree of suspicion of the evidence (WMD's Iraq?). However, a power has to take all the evidence and make a conclusion... then act.

    Act? Well the posts on this site lately are overwhelming of not supporting President Trumps tomahawk action.

    Whether we like it or not the USA is the worlds policeman. The world needs such a force. The UN is a chat show. Russia is showing its true ruthless colours and Assad should be outed. In the Process Russia will, I believe, retreat with no intention of a nuclear retaliation based on the knowledge of equal destruction.

    I'm sure half posters will call me a warmonger but the world must continue to out the tyrants...because it is the right thing to do. If we stop doing that then one sad day we'll be ruled by a Hitler or a Hussein or a Gaddafi.

    That cannot happen.

    In some disreputable online sight I saw an authoritative baloney account of how Putín staged this whole mess to give his favorite fan Trump a boost.

    I thought that you were on to something so I did some digging. Your argument would have been sound if AO 2.5 PT was used exclusively to contain chems. Too bad that's completely wrong. AO 2.5 PT is a widely used soviet erra cluster munitions. Everyone knows that Assad has been cluster bombing the "rebels".

    Another fail for you.
