1. Sincerely sorry for your loss.
2. The reality in life is that sometimes you have to play “the enemy of my enemy...” as much as it usually ends up burning your ass.
3. Had President Clinton done his job, and not wimped out for the possibility of killing “non-combatants,” OBL would have been dead before he got the chance to carry out the attacks.
4. Nobody said anything about committing ground forces to take out Assad.
Appreciate it and I agree with you on 2 and 3. But when we have a vital national interest at stake. Bombing Assad will do nothing but embolden the rebels to hang on. Airstrikes will not be enough.
