Just an observation.
Last week the news media reported that chemical weapons were used in Syria.
I have heard no response from the White House, Pentagon or State Dept.
I definitely don't want to see boots on the ground in Syria...not even Special Ops Raids. But. What happens if a nation state is allowed to use chemical weapons without consequence? If there is no consequence then does our attempts at nuclear containment make sense? Chemical weapons (as the accident in India many years ago) can be just as deadly as nuclear weapons.
I think we just saw any attempt at the appearance of common sense in our foreign policy (if we ever had any) just evaporate.
