OK , now lets look at this as adults in the true historic context, dispassionalty.
1 The Syrian gov has made no threat or challenge to US security or US nationals or employees on Syrian lands or territories.
2 There has been as much proof of Assad using chemical weapons on Syrians as the Yellow cake stories and incubator stories in Iraq
3 There has been no approval from congress for war powers act to be invoked
4 There has been no call from NATO or UN Peace keeping aparatus for US military intervention or assistance
therefore
What kind of political system in the past 100 years has been able to get public support for a war or military action based on nothing at all???
The US signed an agreement that chemical weapons are a definite no no. This is a long standing pact. Obama put his foot in his mouth that the use of same is a line not to be crossed. Thus, we will take out their air power
