<<It seems to me that if we were going to use or need one, that time was a week ago>> Agreed.....Assuming we plan to use it in Iraq. As bad as it may look for the Admin to go after Syria I'd like to see it. They took a lot of abuse for going into Iraq as well but I believe the move has paid dividends. In the shorter term there will still be problems but 5-10 years from now I think this action will be viewed as an important event. I feel the same way about Syria. We know damn well that its a terrorist state and we also know that the Democrats don't have the balls to do whats necessary so lets do the deed while we have the man power. It wont be popular but I believe it would be a mistake to leave them untouched. I guess there's always the chance that we could have special forces do the job in coming months and years but not with the speed we could with the force we have in place now. I don't view Iran or Saudi Arabia as a lost cause YET but Syria and Iraq are. Lets make that "are" a were.
