Possible Western military response to Syrian chemical weapons use

...you know, unless it's too inconvenient or expensive. then maybe again.

Do you support a full ground invasion of Syria then? Three days worth of airstrikes won't change anything.

Hopefully it's a lot more than three days of airstrikes. A full ground invasion would be  counter-productive, but we should have been helping the rebels more overtly with air support a long time ago.

The only problem with that, my friend, is I think we have two sets of bad guys, and the poor civilians in the middle of it.

Probably to an extent. But even if this is the case, then bombing Assad's chemical weapons capability is still a good thing. And hopefully we can find a way to support moderate and democratic elements in the rebel forces over the Al-Qaeda supported elements.

Yes, tricky, but good.

Obama didn't set a red line he says?  Hmmmmmmm.
