What happens when a rocket hits one of the US destroyers and it rolls over and sinks? All on National TV. Remember—this will be (without a UN OK—an act of war—we will be in effect at war with Syria and her allies) Syria will be within her rights to counter attack the USA—maybe with Gas—or just hand them over to the Terrorists for free—to use on US! Wild card is Russia—they could take out our ships in a limited naval war as part of their treaty to defend Syria—they would be in their legal rights. OR worse....

Why is it OK to kill women and children with Cruise Missiles, but not Sarin Gas ?\

Dead is dead, is this not true ?

No one has considered that Syria’s Air Defense systems were supplied by Russia, and probably manned by Russians. What will happen when we start killing Russians??

RE: "Not enough questions at the hearing ...regarding as to just what is the composition of the opposition."
Agree in full. I watched the total hearing as well. Lurch continues to use evasive tactics on that question.
As well as on the question raised again and again as to how long this "limited" strike MO would take. The guy is so evasive on many questions raised.
And as for the question regarding how would the US establish who might gain access to the CW stock piles if the regiem does fall.
No clear cut answer provided.
