I’m coming back to tomahawks, my stance on them keeps changing
Although in my opinion the attacks of gas were senseless
At first I didn’t think Assad was dumb enough to do this
Since sarin gas attacks to Putin would be quite embarrassing
Also, I felt the mood post strike for us would be unfavorable
I found attacking Syria and ISIS most confusing
Since Syria was also giving ISIS quite a bruising
That our position in all this would soon become untenable
But then that Sec. State Tillerson was now opposed to Assad
Was an improvement relative to his position prior
Meanwhile nothing else has happened making things more dire
And Tillerson’s in Russia where most angels fear to trod
O’Donnell’s TV show tonight had featured Malcolm Nance
A former agent, CIA, to whom I pay attention
He had a different take on this that’s worthy here of mention
That Putin is behind all this to test the U.S, stance
He said that Putin had to know Assad had sarin gas
And, also, there was no good rationale for the attack
It all was Putin’s test to see if Trump would answer back
And I expect Sec. Tillerson to be handed back his ass
