"Syria is the problem ( as well as Iran). The enemy is using it as a sanctuary and Our President does absolutely nothing about it.

That is an assumption you're making based on publicly available information. We're putting a lot of pressure on Syria in various ways. There may be black ops happening in Syria, including elimination of some of the Syrian enablers of these foreign fighters. Some Syrian facilities could be blowing up inexplicably in demolitions that are just under the interest level of the MSM.

Bush cares about the troops in Iraq and you can bet that he's doing as much as he can to defend them without making the situation worse. There are reasons why we haven't executed a full-scale retaliation against Syria. Most likely that is because an attack on Syria would cost us more than we gain in the form of lost intelligence and other support from friendly elements in the Arab world. The full story of the Iraq war isn't in the newspapers and much more is happening behind the scenes that you won't read about for another 20 years.

Bush cares about the troops in Iraq
=======
I believe President Bush cares about the troops also. Nevertheless, so did LBJ and Nixon. Its not that there might be a lot of clandestine covert stuff happening in Syria, its that whatever is happening is not producing results. We are still seeing the enemy coming at us from Syria on a constant basis.

If we were to overtly attack the Syrian Regime, it would show the people of Syria and the world at large that we meant business and more importantly that we didn't give a rats A$$ about foreign public opinion when it came to defending this country.

Overt action will cause a tidal wave of response among the Syrian people. If its a tidal wave to our liking good, if not we just DESTROY IT.
