That, fresh from Naharnet:
Mercy, please.
P.S. Meanwhile, other threats seem to work.
Syria will allow U.N. inspectors full access to any site of a purported chemical weapons attack, Deputy Foreign Minister Faisal al Mekdad told CNN on Sunday.

"Meanwhile, other threats seem to work." We'll see. I think they'll just slow walk anything until evervbody has enough cover for what the Syrians and Iranians are attempting to do. Assad and the Mullahs think the O is all talk and nothing else and they're probably right.
I think we are beginning to get a glimpse of what Obama's presidential "legacy" will look like, 4 years from now.
I surely agree that this move was to delay the possible 6th Fleet action, which is, after all, what the administration will welcome warmly, hoping somehow to weather this crisis without any military action.
Oh yeah, but most of us already know that.
This reminds me of Bosnia when Clinton hyped up the sending of a squadron of new Apache helicopters to really show those Serbs. Well they sat and did nothing.
That frustrates the generals enormously. Imagine all that aging hardware going unused...
Obama's military "actions" are like the old joke about the Naval "hero" who watched the fight "through heavy lenses," meaning from several miles away. I'm sure the Syrians would be delighted to host the UN, which would rubber-stamp anything they claimed.
Aging is right. Parts of the air frames of B-52s, alone (despite the planes being rebuilt time and again from the outside in), are now more than sixty years old.
Could have been worse. The Iranians could have used their Wookie troops.
The Proud,
The Few,
The Furry!
There are already some signs that Assad's people have cleaned up the chemical attack target area.
Go for it, Wookies!
If it works...
Yep, I remember the Wookies fondly since seeing them first time.
