FactCheck Alert: Donald Trump's Flip-Flops On Syria To Diet Restrictions In The Constitution

1) US President Donald Trump in his first big foreign policy action, said he ordered missile strikes against a Syrian airfield Thursday night. Trump said this was in retaliation for this week's gruesome chemical weapons attack against civilians, which killed 70 people, several of them children. Singling out Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, Trump had earlier said "something should happen." But the US President's quick military action stands against his earlier statements before his rise to presidency where he urged the then President Barack Obama to not get involved in Syria.

Here is a quick fact check from factcheck.org on the history of Trump's own statements on Syria.

2) Union Information and Broadcasting minister Venkaiah Naidu said that while food is a personal choice, one should avoid consuming what is restricted in the Constitution. "Aapko jo khana hain voh khao...par jo samvidhan main prohibited hain usko mat khaon (One can eat his food of choice, but avoid eating that food which is prohibited as per our Constitution)," he told reporters in Hyderabad.

But is Naidu correct in saying that the constitution restricts consumption of certain types of food. This tall claim calls for a fact check.
