Syria and North Korea are looking outright scary.
In Syria a new edict from President Trump says that the use of barrel bombs will be considered a red line. Barrel bombs are the preferred weapon of Assad (13,000 have been used in 2016) and also would be something very simple to use as an excuse without evidence.
On the other side Russia and Iran confirmed that an attack on Syria would be considered their red line and they will answer with force. And Putin and Rohuani are not people that go back on their words.
North Korea officials spoke to CNN saying, about the current US task force making his way to North Korea, the “current grim situation” justifies Pyongyang’s “self-defensive and pre-emptive strike capabilities with the nuclear force at the core.” And we all know that Kim Jong Un is quite mad.
Hopefully not a World War 3 in the making.
