Congressman Ed Royce led the Republican majority in Congress in suspending House Rules on Tuesday November 15 to pass HR-5732 - the "Caesar Syria Civilian Protection Act of 2016". Thenext day the bill was read twice in the Senate and referred to the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations.

Donald Trump's pick for Attorney General, Senator Jeff Sessions, strongly supports the Syrian No-Fly bill as does Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. Since Republicans will lose a couple of Senate seats they may need to pass the bill just before Inauguration Day so the bill will be ready for President Donald Trump's signature as soon as he takes office.

During his campaign Trump said he favored sneak attacks, saying Obama's public discussion of foreign policy merely tipped-off Russia what our position on Syria is.

Trump has promised Russia won't know what action he'll take until after he's taken it.

I can now easily see why global war-mongers loudly supported Donald Trump for President.

We would never have seen a nuclear sneak attack on Russia under Clinton administration, but Donald Trump believes in surprise which opens a startling potential future.

You're correct in noting this action is taking the full cooperation of the Republican Party, rather than a single man, just like the way Trump's income tax plan will increase taxes on working Americans while providing the top one-percent with a 13.5% tax cut.

I know you've always been a big fan of Putin's anti-Semitic policies, so implementing them globally may depend almost entirely on Donald Trump. But as you say, it will take a group effort by all Republicans and other Trump supporters.
