Our problem today is that the consensus on supporting democracies and/or allies against dictatorships, which was pretty strong after WWII, has completely broken down. For example, Pelosi goes to Damascus to curry favor with Assad instead of making clear that if push comes to shove she’d stand behind our government and Israel. An ambiguous approach to Assad does not help and may lead him to miscalculate. So I think you’re right. We could have fools wanting to debate what to do rather than knowing the thing to do is to assist Israel as needed (including our strategic bombers if needed) as Israel destroys Assad and his regime if he takes a hostile action against Israel. We’re at a crucial moment in history where we could actually destroy the regimes implacable to peace.

We’ve seen that moment before, about six years ago.
