The U.S. launched a cruise missile attack against Syria after accusing Bashar al-Assad’s regime of using poison gas to kill scores of civilians, an act that drew international condemnation and that President Donald Trump called “‘an affront to humanity.”

Oil jumped up over a dollar.

Most Asian index futures stumbled and found support.

SP500 index futures were down almost 20 handles at one point before recovering.

Fun times.

Guys told them to do it, likewise, they just take their month's wage.

Pilots have been well trained on how to fly these machines, when to press the release button over the target, then they get paid.

Then the children died.
