To repeat what I said on another thread, a general was asked how long it would take to take Syria. He said fifteen days, one day to take it and two weeks to stop laughing.

I hope this guy is right. Syria has to stop aiding the insurgency. An incursion or two into their territory would underline this fact.

I this info is wrong. Taking a war across a border isn't just a Vietnam parallel; we almost lost the Korean war the same way. Dissuading Syria calls for a more elegant solution.

I don't know. Now that they have passed the referendum on their constitution, I'm ready to get the heck out of that part of the world and let them kill off each other if they want to. We've done our job now let's save our troops and our money by coming home.
