“U.S. Navy Destroyer Armed With Tomahawks Arrives Off Syrian Coast,
”Harassed” By Russian Warplanes”
by Tyler Durden
Mon, 04/09/2018 – 19:56: ”As the situation in Syria continues to escalate, guided missile destroyer USS Donald Cook has weighed anchor off Syrian territorial waters, and is reportedly being “harassed” by low-flying Russian warplanes, which have buzzed the “Arleigh Burke” class warship at least four times according to CNN Turk. Of note, the Donald Cook has 60 Tomahawk cruise missiles on board. A Navy source confirmed the deployment with the Washington Examiner, who said that the guided-missile-destroyer had just completed a port call in Cyprus, while the Pentagon reportedly draws up plans for how to deal with the situation.
“U.S. military planners have drawn up more than one option for possible military action against Syria, including a strike similar to last year’s attack in which 59 sea-launched cruise missiles inflicted heavy damage on a Syrian Air Force airfield in Homs. Pentagon officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the options now are similar to those presented to President Trump after last year’s chemical attack in northern Syria that killed and injured hundreds of civilians, including women and children. But officials said the president could decide to choose a more robust option this time, given that Syrian President Bashar Assad didn’t seem to get the message last time. - Washington Examiner
What is surprising is that according to the latest Stratfor naval map, there was no other major naval support – either amphibious or carrier strike groups – in the vicinity of Syria as of April 5. The destroyer’s aggressive positioning comes hours after Israel conducted a Monday morning strike on Syria’s T-4 airfield, situated about halfway between Homs (Syria’s third-largest city) and Palmyra (famously the site of ancient ruins). RT reports that two Israeli F-15 jets fired eight guided missiles at the airfield from Lebanese airspace. The jets never entered Syria.
The IDF has long noted the T-4 base for its housing of Iranian and Quds forces with the backing of Syria. US Defense Secretary Jim Mattis told reports on Monday “I don’t rule out anything right now,” when asked about a potential response – noting Russia’s alleged involvement.
Britain and France have also hinted at possible military action in Syria – following comments by British Foreign Secretary, who spoke by phone with French Minister for Foreign Affairs, Jean-Yves Le Drian on Monday, saying that there should be “no impunity for those that use such barbaric weapons,” in reference to the gas attack.
Speaking to reporters at a Monday cabinet meeting, President Trump said he would be making a decision “very quickly, probably by the end of today” about the U.S. response. “This is about humanity. We’re talking about humanity, and it can’t be allowed to happen,” Trump said.
Meanwhile, Russia appears to be making preparations for an imminent, US-led attack and according to unconfirmed reports, there have been “intensive flights of Russian aircrafts along the Syrian coast & over Khmeimim base, in addition to the intense flights of military aircrafts belonging to the Assad regime in the sky of Homs. There is great anticipation from Assad and Russia for a possible blow.”

“This is about humanity. We’re talking about humanity, and it can’t be allowed to happen,” Trump said.
And how exactly does World War III benefit humanity, Mr. President?
One mistake, one stupid move and it’s game over for humanity…

My guess…by morning 4/10/18 cruise missiles will have hit their Syrian targets. Be it False-Flag or not.
He shot 100 EXACTLY a year ago in the last FAKE chemical attack. And people say Trump isn’t following the Illuminati code. LoL here’s PROOF he’s New World Order but The other side! Coca-Cola VS Pepsi. TWO more alphabet agencies!
I don’t know what the game is, but since I, a nobody, figured out Syria was not responsible for the chemical attack, surely Trump must know this as well. So what is his game, to start WWIII?
It’s obvious they have Trumps children
Now I have to make plans to relocate to the Southern Hemisphere because the vast majority of Americans are so severely mentally retarded they can’t see that Trump is just another puppet of the NWO starting WW3 as ordered.
That would be the same USS Donald Cook (alias Donald Duck) that had its butt handed to it when it approached the Russian Navy base in Crimea: https://www.voltairenet.org/article185860.html
