some are sounding the drumbeat for war even as we try to extract ourselves from military misadventure and a broken treasury. The fact is that in Syria the mission is not defined nor is the opposition. Syria, like Iran, has a very well developed and supported military and would not be a pushover as easy as even Iraq and look what a mess that was.
There is no consensus on intervention and the United States would be insane to put something like this on the burner now. Our plate is full.
