They haven't decided not to take military action.
Unless you have been a fly on the wall ...
Strongly-worded letter inbound...
Obviously the Russians are ratcheting up the ante with talk of "war" between the US and themselves. While this is almost certainly bluster, it does and must give the civilised word pause.
If not military action is the finally decision (which I doubt it will be), well, the US has shown that they are prepared to take drastic non-military action against Russia, for one, which ultimately might involve cutting them out of SWIFT altogether, putting pressure on FIFA to postpone the World Cup, or simply tightening the noose further on the stolen funds Putin holds in US banks.
However, none of that addressed the issue of making a deterrent statement about the future use of chemical weapons by Syria or anyone else.
What part Russia actually plays in the direction on Syria's chemical war effrot no one knows, at least not in the unclassified world. A few weeks ago the head of the Russian armed forces himself actually stated that Stria was planning a chemical weapons attack. Why he did that is not clear.
What with the Salisbury attack also, it seems plain that Russia itself is an active player in the world of chemical weaponry, not merely as partner in Syria's crimes.
I heard they are going to kit out the rebels in Morris dancing outfits,
although my source isn’t always reliable, imagine 10,000 Morris dancers charging at you, bells, and hankies waving.... scare the jobbies out off any one
The civilized world assumes it's bluster and ignores it. Otherwise they might be tempted to prove they aren't the ones to be bullied and be more inclined to act.

Theresa is awaiting instruction from Donald Chump. In the meantime waiting in the wings. we have our nuclear reserve Boris to unleash on the Enemy.
From what I understand the French say they have 'evidence' but are waiting for corroboration. One would hope we are doing the same.

The whole think is a load of bluster, the US cannot be seen to allow the use of chemical weapons, Russia cannot be seen to be attacked. If anything does happen Putin will be warned and get out the way do it costs a few mill in target practice to get one old Syrian MIG and a toilet and everyone just carries on.
Don't hold your breath waiting for answer, Jim, cos it isn't true.
The Russians warned that a 'false flag' gas attack would be coming from the Syrian Rebels. A very different spin from the one Ichi is trying to put on it.
And therein lies the problem for those of us not privy to real evidence, whose propaganda do you believe?
I like how you debunk ichi's unsourced allegation with you own, equally unsourced, rebuttal.

Source pls?
Great lads, the French.

No wonder they got rid of him.
Macron said we were useless and they'd have to sort Assad out, I believe.
Any chance you can find a source that isn't Russian propaganda, though?
They are already practising

Sigh. It's very well known unless you get your information from the aBBC, Facebook News, etc.
It's a video.
And whatever you think of the content, it certainly debunks Ichi's pro-rebel spin.

Hi Jim, sorry, yes it was the rebels he was talking about, and it has been mentioned several times in the press but most recently in yesterday's Times. I guess it is pretty obvious why he said it now ...
How they think "the rebels" are going to drop canisters through roofs without planes (and without canisters, almost certainly, either) is anyone's guess.
"it certainly debunks Ichi's pro-rebel spin. "

Sigh...
