The measure would pave the way for the US to declare an aerial blockade on Syria.

Blockades are an act of war. Is this a now expected Act of Congress or another unilateral action to be taken by The One?

Probably a good place for Russian to find out how well their S 400 system works.

'US to announce aerial blockade on Syria'

US readies for possibility of intervention without UN resolution,

Do the headline and the first line of the article seem different ??

[Dallas59]

NO OBAMA WAR ON SYRIA! NO OBAMA WAR ON IRAN!/s

Where are all the millions of protesters from 2005?

[EGPWS]

Oh jeez now we are going to have to suffer through 6 strait months of night and day Cindy Sheehan! /MS

I believe that Syria has several ports along the Med. Also, they can bring in items from Lebanon.

[Pinkbell]

Here we go. Expecting liberal outrage and Code Stink protets in 5, 4, 3, 2... Won’t hold my breath.

[U-238]

This is all fantasy. Its a trial balloon.

Obhamass helping islamists to grab the power again.

Thanks ObHamaSS the good little jihadist !
This guy is a real danger

[Carry_Okie]

This puts the ancient Syriac Christian population directly at risk.

The Alawites are the only protection they have against radical Islamists.

[GeronL]

What a nightmare

[Mariner]

Oh no.

Not this sh!t again.

Would somebody please explain to me what the US interest is here?

Especially given that we are already engaged everywhere else.

[Vermont Lt]

These guys have been at each other’s throats since that Cain guy whacked Able in the head?

Why do we want to get involved in other’s civil wars? This is like one of Disney’s Alladin 6 straight to video sequels. You’ve seen it all before, you know how it ends, and the cast is third rate. Not worth wasting your time over.

But our government cannot seem to help itself. Sometimes Ron Paul almost makes sense. I said almost.

[COBOL2Java]

US readies for possibility of intervention without UN resolution...

Makes sense. Obama ignores the US Constitution, why bother paying attention to the UN? After all, there's an election to be won!

>> “The intercession is to be modeled after NATO’s efforts in Kosovo” <<

.
This is all I need to know to take the side of the Syrian President.

The NATO mission in Kosovo was a cruel attack on the native Christian culture of Kosovo. It was Wesley Clark’s training mission for the moslem terrorists he had armed and trained.

"'US to announce aerial blockade on Syria'" to provide cover for the thousands of Iranian troops entering Syria on the ground. Must protect the oil by avoiding angering the mullahs: bosses of our bipartisan politicos.
