I'm of the belief that if Obama pulls the trigger, we will loose at least one navy vessel and there will be great loss of life and great embarrassment for the US. I also believe these are the last days... turn to God while there is yet time... the US is out of time.
Not even in Siege of Damascus in 634AD, the Capture of Damascus in 1918, or the Great Syrian Revolt in 1925?
And those are just the times Damascus was a “ruinous heap” off the top of my head.
