What if Putin is pleased, not pissed, with Trump's attack?

Yesterday from Rep. Gabbard: "However, because of our attack on Syria, this investigation may now not even be possible. And without such evidence, a successful prosecution (of Assad) will be much harder."

be at odds in order to further their 500 billion dollar oil deal.

The 'strike' will APPEAR to be swift retaliation by a 'leader', and most of the US media will go along with it.
