2Way – Diana Darke on the U.S. Strike on Syria


SULLIVAN: Last night, President Trump ordered a strike on a Syrian airbase. This was in response to President Bashar al-Assad’s gas attack that killed 80 Syrian civilians on Wednesday. He addressed the nation from his estate in Mar-a-Lago late last night, calling Assad’s actions “barbaric,” and criticizing the way Syria has been dealt with in the past.

DUGDALE:  It’s the first time Trump has ordered military action since taking office. Diana Darke is the author of My House in Damascus: An Inside View of The Syrian Crisis. She’s lived and worked in the Middle East for over thirty years and is now based in London. We talked to her about how we got to this point, and what to expect in the coming days.
