In reply to the discussion: How much do we spend out of our budget for military/defense? [View all]tazkcmo

with nut jobs in charge of it. We got a few of those ourselves.
I have yet to see anyone disagree about Assad being a creep that needs to pay for what he has done (if indeed it's proven he did and I'll not take our governments word for it. I'll wait for a body of folks that won't make money by dropping bombs) yet I see you time and time again suggest that by not bombing Syria to the Stone Age we somehow don't care or think Assad is evil. What I'm asking for is for our leaders to consider ALL the possibilities and if military action in WHAT EVER form it takes is indeed the ONLY solution. In addition, it appears that actual goal is regime change so who is going to replace him? You have to think further than Boom.
