Syrian policy: A symphony of failure.

The "coalition of the willing" is shrinking by the hour. The British Parliament voted against participating and France has pulled in its horns and now wants "diplomacy;" meaning just talk. None of the Arab countries is willing. That leaves O'Bungle. And even he might bug out.

American intelligence sources are not sure that Assad's regime used chemical weapons Logic would tell us that it was the Al Qaeda-led rebels that may have pulled the stunt. Why? Because they are losing the "civil war." In reality, this is a war between the Shiite minority of Syria and the Sunni population, plus the Iranian "volunteers" and the Sunni contingents from outside of Syria.

The American President can order our military into action without the approval of Congress if our Country is attacked or our vital interests are threatened. If the Assad regime had indeed used chemical weapons it is reprehensible, but no justification to use our military force. The UN is unwilling to go on record to authorize an attack of Assad forces, neither does NATO or the Arab League.

The Market agrees with my last post that any action ordered by O'Bungle will be limited and meaningless.
