My concern is that we stop arming the Islamic terrorists and that it be determined exactly who delivered the gas attack.
I care about both things too, but I don't want to see either side claim victory here. An outcome I would support is a constitutional government with free elections, human rights, and enforceable rule of law. We are not even close to that.

TG,
My concern is that we stop arming the Islamic terrorists and that it be determined exactly who delivered the gas attack. Just because Assad is a dictator doesn't mean "he did it". The Islamic Terrorist "opposition" forces have the greatest motivation to have used the WMD in order to get the west to pound Assad into submission.
Regardless of motivations, whoever did it clearly was desperate enough to resort to such a horror.

I'm all for staying neutral, but there comes a point where even that is no longer a luxury. We need to get to the bottom of it, or else both sides will be motivated to use chemical weapons even more.
