"There's mounting evidence that they were complicit," @SenBlumenthal says of #Russia on #SyriaGasAttack. "They should be held accountable."

Some (further) background reporting.

Bannon Kushner

This is what it looks like to me. Russia meddled in the US election to get a President who could be manipulated to be on side with Russians.
Russia on Assad's side in Syria.
Although US bombed the chemical weapons factory it was done with the covert agreement & understanding of Russia & Syria.
This takes the heat off Trump & "Russiagatesky" as it looks like Trump isn't 'in cahoots" with Putin.
Putin knows he has a puppet (Trump) he can pull the strings on.
Russia without the interference of the US can wipe out every group against Assad.
By keeping Assad in power, Russia has another 'puppet'.
Russia's aim is to have the biggest influence in the Middle East by using Syria to further this aim.
Russia then feels that they're back up there as a Superpower.
Russia wants to be the No 1 superpower in the world or at least Europe & Asia.
As Russia cannot bear the idea or shame of China being No 1 or even No 2 superpower whilst Russia ends up in 3rd place.
There a few points I feel are missing but I'm sure someone else will spot them.

Or I could be totally wrong.

Checking in ... thank you for the new thread Illegitimate. Love the title - just sorry it came from such an inspiration!

Helsinki I don't think you're far off in your estimation.

"Work this out." Trump admonishes Kushner and Bannon. @maggieNYT & I on the possible shakeup www.nytimes.com/2017/04/07/us/white-house-kushner-bannon-military-strike.html?smprod=nytcore-iphone&smid=nytcore-iphone-share …

Trump has today retweeted a video grab of Ivanka and Kushner pushing their kids in front of the Chinese president and his wife and having them recite a song in the language while everyone beams. I found this purposeful 'using' of children to be quite distasteful, actually. Keep the kids away from it and out of the media spotlight.

The real reason for the bombing: US removing sanctions on Russia. If this reddit comment is right and media is just gobbling this up pic.twitter.com/5l8ceP8D5k

Ivanka has been using their children as "Kennedy Camelot" props since the election. Every time the shit hits the fan, she's popping "cute" pictures of the kids on her Twitter. Like clockwork.

big from @nancyayoussef on US suspicions that a Russian jet hit the hospital treating victims of the chemical attack www.buzzfeed.com/nancyyoussef/a-russian-drone-may-have-turned-off-its-camera-right-before?utm_term=.vxEJr72kJ#.nvJdk698d …

The idea that Ivanka thinks she could in any way measure up to the elegant, well spoken Jacqueline Kennedy is just laughable.

Interesting.On Twitter, apparently #firekushner is trending at number 3, while #firebannon is trending at number 5.

What position was #fireTrump occupying?

Worth watching

Ginger, yes - I feel sorry for the kids. Wealth and privilege can never make up for a momentous loss of privacy, lack of identity past the 'Trump' label, and your parents forcing you to put on a circus act. They can't consent to their images being put up online like this and seen by billions around the world (some the wrong kind of people).

#Hannity on Trump's #Syria Strike: 'Instead of Weakness, We Now Have Strength'

Hannity is all gushy about it but the commenters, in a signal change for Fox, are not. Sorry Hannity! You could be on the side of a sinking team.

Have the Chinese commented on the attack? It's eclipsed the China talks, and I imagine the Chinese are thrilled about that.

Pretty unusual to launch an attack on a 3rd country at the start of a state visit, too.

Catch up on Louise Mensch and her #funwithfisa as she's making more links back to Betsy Devos and Erik Prince there. Whole lot of them are in this data (& money?) laundering stuff that was part of the original FISA warrant.

Jester is following unmarked planes too. Who and where.....
