18. Perhaps not at this stage,
but this appears to be another effort at "ground breaking". First you have to trump up an offense that the object (Syria) is guilty of; then you scream about it and pass legislation against these abominations; get UN sanctions and plenty good world press; then...well you see how it goes. I have seen no creditable evidence that Syria is either a "terrorist" threat to US or that it is trying to obtain WMD beyond what any state might try in a defensive sort of way. Our government has no business picking out countries at random (or perhaps not so randomly)and instigating a break in relations - no good will come of it.
