The Assad Forces Have Been Committing War Crimes For Years, And Suddenly Now People Care?
A barrel bomb is a type of improvised explosive device used extensively by the Syrian Air Force during the Syrian civil war . They are typically made from a barrel that has been filled with High Explosives , along with shrapnel and/or oil . In Syria they are typically dropped from a helicopter . [1] Due to the large amount of explosives that can be packed into a barrel the resulting detonation can be devastating. [2] [3] The Syrian military often dropped these bombs in civilian areas leading to multiple civilian deaths. The BBC reported that between January 2014 and May 2015, only 1% of those killed by barrel bombs were rebel fighters. [4] There have been thousands of reports of the use of barrel bombs during the Syrian Civil War.

Who told Trump this response could spike his approval ratings?
Wag the dog.
Who told Trump this response could spike his approval ratings?
Vladimir Putin.
You're barking up the wrong tree there Fido. It's not that WE all of a sudden care, it's that we now have a President who cares. Your butt buddy Obama did everything he could to avoid doing anything constructive with Syria.
That is the question. Trump HAS NOT cared up until the last 72 hours, even though atrocities have been going on for years.
The question is why does he suddenly care?
The question is why does he suddenly care?
Maybe because now he's President? Your President drew a line in the sand and then sat back and watched as Assad danced right over it.
and maybe now that he is President he found out he was wrong in aug 2013 about needing congressional approval under the war powers act of 1973 which allows him to do as he did?
The question is why does he suddenly care?
Donald Trump does not now and never did give a flying fuck for any civilians, even children and babies (or military personnel for that matter) dying anywhere in the world. Donald Trump has one interest, one thing and one thing only in the entire world that he truly cares about and that is what is good for Donald Trump. That's all. That's it. That is the only thing he cares about. Himself and how to better promote and advertise himself. He is 100% pure ego and nothing else.

Stop projecting your own traits onto Trump !
"Donald Trump does not now and never did give a flying fuck for any civilians, even children and babies..."
Projection?
Barrel bombs. That is a horrible weapon. Not sure how you morphed from your subject/article and landed on Trump, since he had nothing to do with barrel bombs.......but that's okay, we understand.
Obama chose to do nothing for years for fear of offending Russia and Iran.
Id think you'd be happy we finally have a president who will stand up to Putin.

Isn't this the President that the Left keeps saying has been bought by Putin? If that actually happened, I'd say that Mr. Putin made one hell of a bad mistake.
from what I read , if they had simply rolled commercially made conventional "Dumb" bombs(like used in WW2) out of the helicopters all those years they would have had the same effects and been legal , with the exception of landing on aide stations or hospitals.
