So I guess if the attacks arent like OAD then they are more like Darius Miller, Patrick Patterson, DeAndre Liggins, Josh Harrellson, Doron Lamb, Terrence Jones, Andrew Harrison, Aaron Harrison, Dakari Johnson, Marcus Lee, Willie Cauley-Stein, Alex Poythress, Dominique Hawkins, Derek Willis, Isaiah Briscoe, Sacha Killeya-Jones, and Isaac Humphries?

The "every player for UK is a OAD" take is the laziest.

I just think it's creepy he brought UK into it.
Really? You don't think it was as simple as associating the term "one and done" as a figure of speech? What else would come to mind if you heard that term. Not surprising at all.

An idiot leader that would gas his own people needs to be sent a strong message.

assad already did this, years ago. almost as if he's already crossed this particular red line

trump ran as an opponent of intervening in syria, and he's against admitting syrian refugees

but he can launch some missiles to wrap his fat *** in the flag

Missile strikes on an air force base at night. Casualties, especially innocent ones, will be minimal.

In sports there's a saying "veteran move by a rookie", and I think we saw that here. He didn't invade with the intent to occupy and nation build, he didn't draw a line in the sand and sing "kumbaya".

Regardless of your politics, something had to be done in response to the atrocity committed by Assad, and what Trump and his admin pulled off tonight was well be on his years in terms of experience as a world leader, and he pulled it off over dinner with another world leader/rival.

Yes, he has said before he was not for taking Assad out but this shows that he is not a normal politician who would double down on something for the sake of politics but rather somebody who can see perhaps some error in his previous held thoughts/strategies. Things change, you need to be able to adapt and act.

jesus christ

talk about a kool-aid drinker

I believe Christ drank wine, and I'm just trying to catch up with everyone who's been punch drunk for the past 8 years. A small special little click at the party got all loopy off their own little special brew and left a lot of folks wanting something a little more palatable for the masses. It may not be fruity, unique and full of diverse flavors but it'll put hair on your chest and those f*** arounds from down the block who have been cramping our party and picking on the maker of the home brew ain't gonna mess with Big Dick Dan who brought the two kegs in thrown over his shoulders like a champ.

I am thankful Higgins does not have Cruise Missiles. He doesn't have friends at NORAD I hope.

I can't stand Trump, but this was appropriate. And about time after the ***** we had for 8 years refused to do anything. You cannot let atrocities like gassing children go without some reaction.

As long as any further action or stances are taken through Congress, I have no issue with this and applaud the response. I pray for our servicemen and women right now.

he clearly doesn't give a **** about the syrian civilians, and is doing this to prop himself up domestically

he's dumb, but not so dumb that he didn't notice the chattering shitheads of the pundit class falling all over themselves to kiss his *** when he used that babykiller seal's widow as a prop

Looks like just about all the world leaders approve and applaud this action except for Assad and Putin.

A lot of people applauded us when we launched cruise missles at Saddam...that worked out super well for us.

amirite?
I put out a statement on world reaction - not commentary, an endorsement or opposition.

I think this was an easy decision with anyone with balls. The true test, decisions, debatable moments will be if Assad doubles down.

I am fine with a limited strategic and message sending strike w/no risk of American casualties that can also prevent the dropping of another gas bomb from that air base. Anything further needs to be carefully considered.

The military is lucky they have a CiC with a set of "balls".
I mean, launching a bunch of missles a thousand miles away is ballsy.

Buckel up folks...world police.

How many Syrian civilians are hanging out at night at the airfield that was bombed

Your hero Hillary approved.

The place is a mess and will never be stable IMO - further action is likely a waste...but I am fine with cutting off the runways that delivered poison on tons.

And balls - maybe it wasn't ballsy...watching people get gassed to death isn't ballsy either, I do know that.

6 dead.. Minimal casualties so far.. attack is a warning shot.. in response to gassing children.. Putin/Russia are pissed which should make Libs happy (although it goes against their rhetoric)..

The ONLY thing I don't like, is that he did this on the fly. Then again, maybe this was the only way to do it, otherwise this attack might never have gotten off the ground, if Trump had to ask permission from everyone and their mother.

Still, I get the concern there. Otherwise though?

I don't give a **** about them nor do any of you leftist sacks of **** who virtue signal 24/7. You're upset constantly no matter the issue.

I do notice that you on the left like to blame everyone else, never fix a damn thing except further burden us with your craziness.

Oh, and you're talking about props? Really? The Dems are King of props. You trot out some random Muslim famiy of a soldier killed 14 years ago for a talking point? Trot out some thug's mom? You used kids to try and push for gun control and at the DNC, you even brought out a GD midget.

no american has ever been killed by a syrian refugee terrorist, and miami beach is going to be underwater within 50 years

but absorbing 10k into a nation of 330m is a bigger risk than climate change

good job recognizing the real threats in the world

How old are you? Miami Beach won't be under water within 50 years, if you're naive enough to believe that then you're a fool or you're too young to know better.

As for Syrian refugee terrorist, nice play on words.

Where is your 10k number coming from? Since 2011 there have been 18000 total refugees from Syria enter the US, 90% of that # coming since 2016...accepting 10k from Syria would be an outlier, not the norm.
