Nuke them
“The question now is this: What is the goal of the United States? To secure chemical weapons or to destroy them.”
Yes, Mr. _Resident. What IS your goal here? What IS your exit strategy?
*SMIRK* This administration sickens me.
Obama & Kerry would love to destroy the “Property Of Iraq Republican Guard”.
You know, if 0bama was any kind of leader (haha), he would try to get Russia and China to join with the US and the UN to request that Assad disarm and surrender all their chemical weapons. If the sole purpose is to keep these weapons from being used again, he should be able to make this happen.
But since his purpose to to help his MB buddies, he can’t imagine doing this.
I hot an idea let’s just send in ALL of the NEWLY Minted FEMALE Combatants.
Where in the hell did Syria get WMDs on this scale or quality? And how do we know what they have?
As Gomer Pyle would say...”Surprise, surprise, surprise”
Someone should alert our supreme stratego player we used to have some military presence in Iraq, that would be the next country to the east. Also, someone should alert him those units noted on his forces chart as reserve are mostly not active at the moment.
So, where will the forces come from Supreme Stratego Player?
This reminds me of when the Ruskies invaded Czeckoslovakia in 68. We were committed elsewhere but the bright light planners put a few companies of the 101st on airplanes with 150 rds of ammo in case they were needed in Europe.
Not sure that I believe most of those polls.
Hell no!! No troops to Syria to fight FOR al-Qaeda!! We have absolutely zero national interest, zero to gain, but everything to lose. This is nothing more than Obama’s continuing treasonous fight to have his pals the Muslim Brotherhood controlling all of the Middle East.
This is Obama’s war, not America’s!!
NO BLOOD FOR OBAMA!!
That’s why they shoulda MOABed ‘em when they were still in storage prior to Sept. 2012.

Panetta: We’ve Lost Track of Some Syrian Chemical Weapons
But I thought the goal was more or less, for Obama to wag his finger at Assad to make sure he didn’t do that again. If he in fact did it.
Now they’re talking about this. America, we’ve been down a tough road with these clowns since 2006. Got even worse in 2009. Lord only knows what we’re in for, if he does something.
Re: “Securing Syrian Chemical Weapons Would Take 75,000 Ground Troops.”
More like 25,000.
Trying to secure Syria, however, would take 750,000.
How many U.S. and coalition ground troops went into Iraq in 2003? There were approximately 195,000 troops in the initial invasion. We were unable to secure the WMD's with the force size used in that war. We will not be able to secure WMD's in Syria with only 75,000 ground troops. This is another lie being propagated by the liberal idiots who are out to destroy America.
Does this count sweeping Lebanon, where most of them are likely hidden (Bekka)?
BTW, is it just me, or is Katie hothothot?
(I’m not asking you, Kas. I love you too much!)
