We need to stay out of Syria IMHO. There is no doubt the act of gassing children in their sleep is heinous, but any action we take begs the loud "then what?--to what effect?" questions which have no good answers so far. It would be great if America had endless power, soldiers, and money, to right all the wrongs in the world all by ourselves, but we just don't and it's time we faced it. This needs to be a UN response not us acting pretty much alone. Our President claiming he can thumb his nose at the world and our congress to do what "he has the power to decide" has hit a wall on this one. It's an act of war to bomb Syria. People just don't want any more war. We are tired. Our troups are killing themselves at a rate greater than the enemy is. Ever notice when the news story covers a dead soldier's return, it is always noted he was killed by a roadside bomb, etc? Never that he/she killed themselves out of battle fatigue and depression. That is kept quiet. For the sake or our own children whose fathers are sent to war, we need to just say no to this one.
