  It seems to happen just about every September and April over the past years: every time the Syrian proxy war seems to have receded from international media attention for a period of a long summer or a winter, a mass attention-grabbing event or massacre happens to suddenly yank the world’s (and the White House’s) focus right back on the war and a return to intervention and escalation mode.

  On Monday evening of Labor Day, President Donald Trump weighed in with what’s clearly a veiled threat warning Syria and its allies via Twitter:
  –
  President Bashar al-Assad of Syria must not recklessly attack Idlib Province. The Russians and Iranians would be making a grave humanitarian mistake to take part in this potential human tragedy. Hundreds of thousands of people could be killed. Don’t let that happen!
  –
  And immediately following, US Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley tweeted her own statement based on the president’s words, while specifically invoking the US charge that Assad plans to use chemical weapons.

  Haley wrote: All eyes on the actions of Assad, Russia, and Iran in Idlib. #NoChemicalWeapons
