I don't claim to be a geopolitical expert, but it seems to me that things can change over the course of 5 years.
In any case, no, I don't think US, UK and France are bombing a country to "distract" from controversy in American politics.
And in a lot of cases, the 'rebels' really are just as bad as the ones in power. They often want to replace a government with one that is even more strict and religious. It's the regular every day people that get fucked in the end

After WWIII purges the planet, humanity survives (barely). Then Cochrane develops the warp drive and the Vulcans visit earth............... see, all things work out in the end.

You don't think there is any part of this decision to strike Syria as a way to distract from Stormy, Cohen, Comey, GOP leaving left and right?
Have you heard of secret societies running countries in the background before?

There's been a clusterfuck of in-fighting in Syria for almost 7 years now. If Syrian forces are making progress, why gas their own people?
Oh right, he's an evil dictator and we're supposed to hate him for some reason. But let's allow terrorist splinter cells to multiply and 'evacuate' to other countries.
The middle east is still stuck in the middle ages.
Trump? Did you know that the powers that be have been breeding Trump (see mob upbringing) for this time and position probably before you were born?
still better than Hillary

The Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) confirms that the OPCW Fact-Finding Mission (FFM) team is on its way to Syria and will start its work as of Saturday 14 April, 2018," the watchdog said in a statement on Thursday.
Al-Jaafari was quoted by SANA news agency as saying that the Syrian government was ready to facilitate the teams' entry into any point in Douma, Eastern Ghouta's largest town.

IMO a lot of why the Middle East is so fucked up now is because of all the US and Western intervention in the regions. Western talking heads not realizing their actions in one country, or against/for a specific ethnic group, tribe, or religious sect have repercussions that affect the entire region.
Look at the state of countries in South America right now... the amount of democratic leaders killed and displaced by totalitarian regimes due to the fear of the "Red Scare" directly caused that. The Middle East is just another version of that. Except this time it is a mix of religion and politics rather than a singular fear of communism. Again due to US intervention and not properly understanding the ripple effect.
