The consensus is that Obama is demonically insane.

The United States is a monarchy now. Kings do not require “consensus” for their actions.

This is no moral reason for our involvement here. None.

One tyrant ousted, only to be replaced by a few hundred rival Islamist Jihadi factioned zealot groups who shoot little girls who go to school, women who go out alone, and bomb street corners of western hotels?

Oh, I forgot! That's Obamaville on a good day!

Great, some hotshot Falcon driver puts a sidewinder into an Anotov delivering condensed milk and borscht and we’re all transported back 50 years when Patton tanks and T54s faced off at Checkpoint Charley. I’m not really into this nostalgia thing.

according to...

The Independent on Sunday has learned that a military decision has been taken in Iran – even before last week’s presidential election – to send a first contingent of 4,000 Iranian Revolutionary Guards to Syria to support President Bashar al-Assad’s forces against the largely Sunni rebellion

This isn’t going to end well.

Meanwhile, here in Pittsburgh, it’s gay pride weekend & that has the attention of our citizens & local media. No mention of this pending crisis, and I’d bet the majority of revelers on the street wouldn’t have the first clue.

We are so hopelessly disoriented as a country.

Several members of the EU have wanted to jump in but have hesitated because of Russia.

That would be good, but our media would never allow it to be reported as real news and will say its lies.

The Muslim Brotherhood gives it two thumbs up.

Obama seems to like it.

What is it about NATO and its irrational impulse to facilitate the spread of Islam?

Obama said the USA will not be enforcing a NO FLY ZONE in Syria.

That means it is already in progress.

Just like when he said our military was not in Libya.
(No they weren't really IN Libya - they were over it in fighter/attack aircraft)
