It is a "Kabuki" dance. Tweety's bombs in Syria mean nothing. I'm glad, I suppose, he did it, BUT Tweety has no strategy. What comes next?
Tweety's use of "Mission Accomplished" represents his ignorance, PERIOD!
"Trump defends 'mission accomplished' tweet"

Mission Accomplished ha! This is saying I started cleaning house, so I am done. The Tweety wants to use it more? How many "Incompletes" (I) does he want?
This is what Tweety is al about - 1984 changing the meaning of words.
"Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump on Sunday defended his use of the term "mission accomplished" to describe Friday night's missile strike in Syria.
"The Syrian raid was so perfectly carried out, with such precision, that the only way the Fake News Media could demean was by my use of the term 'Mission Accomplished,'" he tweeted Sunday morning. "I knew they would seize on this but felt it is such a great Military term, it should be brought back. Use often!""
What? Tweety's lack of military experience notwithstanding his military school, or his pure ignorance and brazen stupidity, cannot help him justify "Mission Accomplished." Somehow Tweety doesn't know this term was used by George Bush after his worst blunder - attacking Iraq. Tweety, you ca't use this term unless the war is won!
Here are some Urban Dictionary definitions of this term:
"Mission Accomplished"
Something you say after you fuck up. This way, people will think you have actually succeeded when in fact you have failed so miserably your former supporters have crossed over.
Mission Accomplished in Iraq, eh?"
"mission accomplished"
correction---4000 deaths and counting...
since mission accomplished, there have been over 4000 deaths"
"Mission Accomplished"
A phrase denoting failure. Usually used in conjunction with a photo op (where the failure wears a military costume) so that the press can have a collective orgasm.
Typically is followed by protracted guerilla wars that kill 100s of Americans in an arbitrary nation in the Islamic world

After Mission Accomplished: Over 1,000 dead American troops"

OK, these are sarcastic, but the point is Tweety uses the term wrong.
"The Hypocrisy of Trump’s “Mission Accomplished” Boast About Syria"
By Robin Wright April 14, 2018
Russia and Assad are laughing at Tweety . . .
"On Saturday, President Trump revelled in the military efficiency of the joint strike by the United States, Britain, and France on three chemical-weapons facilities in Syria. The tightly choreographed multinational operation—involving aircraft and ships in the Mediterranean, Red Sea, and Persian Gulf—took less than two hours. More than a hundred missiles—nearly double the size of the 2017 U.S. strike on Syria—hit their targets. A production site, command post, and storage facilities were obliterated. Neither the Russians nor Iranians tried to stop the strike or intervene militarily. Syria’s air defenses failed miserably. All allied aircraft and personnel returned safely to their bases. “A perfectly executed strike last night,” Trump tweeted, on Saturday morning. “Could not have had a better result. Mission Accomplished!”"
Well, woohoo! Tweety did it! Or did he? What is the next step?
"“So you strike. Then what?” Ryan Crocker, a former Ambassador to Syria (as well as Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Lebanon, and Kuwait), told me. “If the rockets hit the targets they intended, you could say the mission was accomplished in a narrow sense. But, in reality, it accomplished nothing. It might have been better if we’d not struck at all. It’s sending a message that killing is O.K. any way but one way—with chemical weapons. How many have been killed in Eastern Ghouta during this whole Syrian campaign? Far more by non-chemical means. It’s obscene.”"
What is next?
"Like many U.S. diplomats who have served in the region, Crocker said that he is still waiting for a diplomatic vision to end the war, not simply a military plan to deal with one repugnant tactic. “It seems like the policy right now is not to have a policy. Syria is not a military problem. It is a political problem.”"
