Oh, great, now if Syria does something with its non-nuclear WMDs it has become a red-line for the Obama Administration.
I want to see the uproar from the Democrats and the Progressives. Where is it? Do they really think the intelligence is any better now than it was in 2003? I mean the Syrians deny they have any, so shouldn’t we believe them?
I think we should institute at least 12 years of sanctions against the Assad regime, but first his regime has to invade Lebanon or Turkey or Iraq or Jordan … or Israel (Gasp) … after which the UN throws his troops out to restore the status-quo-ante. Then let him be in violation of at least19 UN Security Council resolutions.
AND then we have to get a separate resolution giving him a last chance to change … after which, we have to get yet another UN Security Council resolution authorizing the US to act. I think that is where George W. went wrong, he forgot the last one.
I guess the hypocrisy of this article just makes me puke.
Not that I don’t think the threat isn’t real … and probably should have something done about it … unfortunately, I don’t think the US has the capability right now to do anything about it. Sorry this isn’t a mission for an A-Team or Delta Force or the Navy’s Seal Team 6. And we don’t have forces enough in the area to pull it off, unless the Turks get generous.
The Navy is short of aircraft carriers, now that the Big E has retired (with its replacement several years down the road from completion).
Where are you progressives? I want to see you en masse in Lafayette Park keep our president, that you just voted to put back into office, awake at nights with your chants about how there are no WMDS.
