UPDATE: The Russian military alleged on Friday that the chemical attack was “staged,” under the direction of Britain:
BREAKING: The Russian military says that an alleged chemical attack in Syria was staged and directed by Britain.

Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov cautioned against intervention in Syria on Friday, saying that such an action would create a new surge in migration into Europe, while making a veiled reference to the United States.
Even small acts, Lavrov was quoted by wire agencies as saying, could “lead to new waves of migrants to Europe and a lot of other developments that aren’t at all needed, either by us or our European neighbors.”
Intervention “can only gratify those who are protected by an ocean,” he added, in an apparent swipe at the US, which has been spared the burden of dealing with refugees from conflict zones in the Middle East, despite its own military’s involvement in the region’s various crises.
US President Donald Trump is reportedly considering military options following allegations that the Bashar al-Assad regime conducted a chemical weapons attack. Trump surprised officials in his own administration this week when he warned on Twitter that missiles “will be coming,” to Syria, before backtracking to say a decision has not been made.
Lavrov also said on Friday that he had “irrefutable evidence” that the purported chemical attack was staged as part of a “Russophobic campaign” led by one country. He did not initially say which country, though it was later reported that the Russian military alleged the attack was staged under direction of Britain.
News reports indicate that the Trump administration is leaning toward taking action as part of a coalition with allies, including the UK and France, in lieu of going through the United Nations Security Council, over which Russia holds veto power.
Stupid "West" gave the world not 1 but 2 world wars, now the idiots seems itching for it again. As for asia everything would have worked more peacefully among themselves without the West, North Korea issue being a prime example.- pure flaming famming by the stupid US right from the start by helping divide North and South Korea and then the unpredictable wars and regime changes for the past twenty years. In fact, Middle East flaming had alot of added Western oil too.
If weapons werent so globally lethal today it would be fun to just contain the West and watch them burn themselves, again, perhaps for good. For all the talk about human rights, beliefs, god and whatnot it seems something that drove them to worldwide colonial wars and two world wars were NOT fixed. If happens again, better make sure they only extinct themselves without taking rest of humanity with them.
Putin is talking too much…..no action, 70 year old man is the macho man…move aside Putin
Is that a threat? What is Russia going to do about it? Give the green flag for Assad to bomb more residential areas or gas them?
