CNN - Politics: Reports " After three years of avoiding it, President Barack Obama finds himself being pushed toward military action in Syria. "
Lets Get Real:
President Obama will get a 2nd chance to correct a mistake when he didn't bomb Syria when the Assad Regime used WMD on its people, this time it will not be Assad that gets bombed it will be IS. The Oval can not bottle a 2nd chance to strike Syria, yes the action will have risks, but the lack of action will help IS. The downside for the US and the poor Syria people is that by bombing IS it will help the Assad Regime, there is no way around that, all choices when it comes to Iraq and Syria are lesser evil choices. If POTUS had armed the secular rebels at the start then it can be argued that IS might not be the threat it is now, but that debate is for the history books, the Oval has to ACT and soon, IS is to much of a threat to the Middle East and the West.
