Great story, and good move alerting the Russians at the base.  It wasn't the Russians who dropped the gas.  We'd rather not start a war with Russia while b-slapping Syria.

Yesterday you guys were bragging,saying that Trump showed Putin that he wasnt afraid....Now, he had to warn Russia? Which one is it?

There's a big difference between being afraid and using common sense.  For example, if JJ Watt and Joe Pesci were together, and Joe provoked me, I'd tie into Joe.  Why in the cornbread hell would I jump on JJ Watt, even if I was also 6'5" 295 lbs?  

Our beef wasn't with Russia, it was with Syria (based on the info available at the time).  Had the Soldiers been from Germany, they'd been warned.  Based on Obama's "line in the sand" comment, and subsequent inaction, the international community has the idea that America won't react.  The attack on the Syrian Airfield was proof positive we will.

How do you know how it was phrased? Maybe if it was a tapped call, you might know. Trump probably said, "We are going to bomb some Syrian airfields. Now, get your arse out of the way."

This is the hidden content, please

The headline in the Time article is misleading, and bordering on Fake News.  If you read the article, the Russian troops at the Air Base were notified.  Since the headline says Russia was notified, the readers, like you, assume that Trump called his old golfing buddy, Putin, and told him.  That's the kind of little tricks the left media plays to mislead folks like you. You really need to pay more attention.  You also ought to rethink your position on Breitbart.  As you can see, it is more reliable that Time magazine.

I never said Trump called Putin. I said Russians were warned.

Sorry, but your topic header said, was Russia warned, and the headlines on the Time's said, Trump Admin warned Russia.  That's misleading by the Times.

Russia, how can one say Russia without including Putin, was warned an hour before the tomohawk missile attack, and Russia did NOTHING. They knew they couldn't stop it and Trump is being applauded around the world for the attack. Assad counters with another air attack, albeit without chemicals, as an in-your-face to Trump. It wasn't that Assad attacked, it was his use of WMDs which were supposed to have been surrendered under Obama's watch. Trump is honoring his line in the sand. Too bad others ahead of him didn't have the balls to stand up.
