...from his hard line?

DONALD Trump’s Twitter account reveals the dramatic extent of his U-turn over intervention in Syria.

In 2013, he criticised his predecessor Barack Obama’s support for Syrian rebels following a deadly chemical weapons attack by Assad forces that left 1,000 people dead.

Mr Trump blasted: ‘We should stay the hell out of Syria.’

Intervention, he said, would only risk hurting civilians and empowering would-be terrorists.

Before launching his presidential campaign, Mr Trump posted dozens of tweets about the conflict, all of a noninterventionist nature.

In one, he declared emphatically: ‘Do NOT attack Syria, fix U.S.A.’

Yet it all changed last week when he unleashed his surprise missile attack.

The tweets on the right illustrate the scale of his change of heart – and finish with his thanks to the ‘great military men and women’ for their work on the missile strike.
