DAMASCUS — Early Friday morning – in a move that would have made his former electoral opponent Hillary Clinton proud – President Donald Trump launched airstrikes targeting a Syrian government military base that targets Daesh. According to Trump, the attack was a response to allegations that the Syrian government was responsible for a chemical weapons attack that took place in Syria’s Idlib Province on Tuesday.
