Russia has served notice that the next U.S. attack on Syria will carry “grave consequences”. It probably means they’ll attempt to shoot down the next cruise missiles or U.S. aircraft discovered trying to make America great again in Syria. Or, also likely, a retaliatory strike against the U.S. Navy ship firing the cruise missiles using an anti-ship cruise missile Russia has recently perfected. Supposedly, this one was designed to defeat Phalanx guns and anti-missile defenses. Plus duck underwater and blow up under the waterline in some cases.
It’s one thing when people like ISIS swear out consequences. They’ve got to go find a rental car or hijack a truck before they can make good on that threat. But a nation with an advanced military, well, you kind of need to take those threats seriously there, Field Marshall Herring.
