Question.......
What happened to needing congressional approval to strike another sovereign nation?
The War Powers Resolution
The War Powers Resolution requires the President to notify Congress within 48 hours of committing armed forces to military action and forbids armed forces from remaining for more than 60 days, with a further 30-day withdrawal period, without a Congressional authorization for use of military force (AUMF) or a declaration of war by the United States.

Anyone who's crying against these strikes supports the gassing of innocents.

Trump supporters here kept saying over an over again that HIllary was a warmonger who would start WW3 so everyone should vote for Trump.
Now that Trump could be starting WW3 they don't care about warmongering anymore. Trump supporters will never change their mind, if supporting banning bump stocks and assault weapons didn't change their minds bombing someone won't either.

Nice alterion of Trump's statement, typical of the left. 'Intervention' is your wording. He stated as long as the ME nations took care of their domestic extremists, the US no loger had the policy of regime change or 'nation rebuilding'. Period.
If Trump was going to remove Assad, he'd be gone. He's not. Simple.
Trump will be out of Syria by the mid-term and will have fulfilled his promise.
Well done on the 'warning' given to all that use or would us weapons of mass destruction.
