If U.S. military action is truly needed in Syria (and not just to enrich the military-industrial complex) then Rep. Cheney should recommend a declaration of war so that the U.S. can justly use its full war capabilities and resources to bring the enemy to unconditional surrender or total annihilation.

“Rep. Cheney should recommend a declaration of war so that the U.S. can justly use its full war capabilities and resources to bring the enemy to unconditional surrender or total annihilation.”

And after we did that, just exactly what would we say we’ve accomplished except the likelihood that we will have suffered more casualties and pi$$ed away more money that we really don’t have in the first place? I am a fan of Israel! That said, other than making sure it survives, what exactly to we gain by being there? We now have more oil than the Saudi’s, so I’d like to know just who’s interests are being served by being there at all. I am way, way more concerned about Putin and the Chinese being in our hemisphere than what goes on in the ME and Africa, starting with “fixing” Venezuela, El Salvador, Guatemala, and most of the rest of the dictator-run mini-$hit hole countries between Mexico and Venezuela.

She should also specify against whom, ISIS being mostly defeated and the Syrians doing what looks like a perfectly good job of mopping up.
