Not insanity, imo a strike under BHO's direction more resembles that, rather a way out of the box incompetence at the top forced us into. I think it's fair to say that in a geopolitical, not military, sense we are now simply one of several superpowers.

Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but in this writer I see a McCain, Graham type of mentality.

He wants Obama to go full bore against Assad and topple him, to what end, I wonder, considering who the other side consists of and how the Christian community is being genocided.

It’s hard to understand how anyone could even consider this plan to be a serious option.

- It is not a serious option and nothing will change. Assad will keep the chemicals and Russia will continue to back his client state. As a result of nothing happening, Obama will do nothing, no attacks, not later and not into the distant future.

How can we trust the word of a Assad?

We can't. It is meaningless. We can’ trust the Iranians, Russians, NORKS, Hizbollah, anybody Islamic or any FSA fighter. But, this is what the President is doing in order to avoid a Putin slam dunk, which is what he did anyway.

The issue here is Iran, not Syria and now Obama has paved the way (just like Clinton before him with the NORKS) for Iran to get a bomb and threaten Israel, Europe and the USA. It is just a matter of time before they come hunting for us as they did today, 12 years ago.

This is what they do when you cower into a corner and hide your face so you won't see reality. They come into your corner and kill you and this is what may happen now. By dithering on Syria, (for excellent reasons) we invite the next 9/11 unfortunately.

Obama is not a stupid man.

Facts not in evidence, Your Honor.

How can you trust a president that can't even you in the eye?

“Obama is not a stupid man”

I beg to differ.

The Obama Foreign Policy: “Move forward” by “leading from behind,” and “stonewall” anyone who claims that Obama looks like an ASS.

The West is trying to avoid conflict at all costs.

Bull hockey!

How can we trust the word of a Assad – a man who has murdered tens of thousands of his own people, used chemical weapons, broken every international norm and law, reneged on all of his promises to the UN, U.S. officials, and international mediators, and is supported by Iran, one of the most duplicitous nations in the world?

IOW, Assad is nothing more than your typical Libtard dictator hero. Just on a smaller scale.

Obama’s, and America’s, credibility is shrinking by the second.

Obama never had any credibility to begin with. Whatever credibility America had left was pissed away on November 6, 2012.
