The U.S. could hit Syria with three days of missile strikes, perhaps beginning Thursday, in an attack meant more to send a message to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad than to topple him or cripple his military, senior U.S. officials told NBC News on Tuesday.

G-d save our sailors and airmen. 0bambi surely won’t (see BENGHAZI!)
These interventionist aholes are going to get us embroiled in another expensive no-win hot conflict if it’s the last thing they do.

Shock and Awe is that all you got?
Can I get the exact time so I can set my alarm for it, and oh by the way can you tell me the plan of attack?....Assad.
Thanks Bambi Buttinski!

There’s probably a CFR publication that outlines the strike.
