Early Saturday morning President Trump declared “Mission Accomplished” in Syria. The United States launched over one hundred weapons at 3 targets in concert with French and British forces. Not a single of those weapons was successfully deterred by Syrian countermeasures. “The Syrian response was remarkably ineffective”, said Lt. Gen Kenneth McKenzie.

Russia has also been vocal in criticizing the United States for striking without waiting for inspectors from the international chemical weapons watchdog to investigate.
