I've Been Thinking:
Tensions between Russia and the United States are spiking in the Syria.
Russia's chief of staff and the head of the US joint chiefs of staff spoke yesterday about the tensions.
The Russians have held press conferences and have said that they have information that the US is going to strike Assad fortifications in Damascus. Russia said that they will retaliate if Russians were hurt in the strike. Russia also said that the US will create a pretext for the attack.
The US has been speaking about Syria's use of non-conventional weapons against civilians. They have said that they will respond if that proves true.
Russia is suggesting that the US will stage a gas incident in order to attack.
Words are ugly, but it is potential action that could destabilize the entire region.
