Trump's Attack on Syria (Ciaja Beck 4th period )

A man carries a child at a makeshift hospital in Khan Sheikhoun. Activists have blamed the Syrian regime for the attack. In an apparent reference to the attack, two state-run Syrian media outlets reported that there was an explosion at a "rebel poison gas factory" in the countryside of Idlib province. The government has denied using chemical weapons in the past.
Summary:  After strike, Trump expressed in two sentences why he attacked Syria. And those statements were,


"Tonight, I ordered a targeted military strike on the airfield in Syria from where the chemical attack was launched. It is in the vital national security interest of the United States to prevent and deter the spread of chemical weapons."





Analysis:War is expensive , extremely expensive. Not only arms and ammunition are expensive , no fighter will remained in the trenches if you don't provide food, and a good pay on top of the usual brainwashing and ideology. The main problem is with Assad, the President of Syria, which could drag the US deeper into a Syrian conflict than it was prepared to go potentially making already the complex and bloody war even worse. Trump really should've taken into consideration of the U.S people and US land. Also supposedly a Russian military were helping the Syrian government, which were killed by the chemical weapon, which could also lead the US sparking a conflict with a powerful nuclear army,   http://www.cnn.com/2017/04/05/middleeast/idlib-syria-attack/
