Are we invading Syria like we did Iraq?

20. Here's how it looks to me.

Pres. Obama doesn't mind war, but doesn't think "boots on the ground" are the way to wage it. "Boots on the ground"="American deaths". He is in fact directing a followup to GWB w.r.t. PNAC planning, but with tactical differences. The Libya "adventure" (perfectly consistent with the PNAC plan) hasn't hurt the US admin much, even though only Satan himself would say that the situation in Libya is "better". There were no US casualties. However, there was a bit of a mistake in strategic terms, since NATO went far beyond the parameters of any international agreement and in fact bombed the "rag tag army of rebel freedom fighters" a fast track into Tripoli. Of course this was wholly unnatural, if one thinks in terms of civil wars of liberation. It was no such thing. This didn't bother the corporate MSM, which hardly mentioned it, but it bothered other world powers.

This causes Obama problems w.r.t. Syria. He's itching to re-do Libya in Syria, but the international community has caught on. After all, it's a very obvious pattern that's been delivered in writing for over a decade.
