Bomb Syria, Even if It Is Illegal

Love the headline of this Times op-ed piece: http://nyti.ms/1aNKwXf

 

Certainly The Times Editorial staff does not agree:

I guess they are a little bit more cautious this time around and they no
longer have Judith Miller around to confirm presence of chemical weapons.

 

It's by an op-ed contributor. It by no means represents the newspaper's point of view.

 

As shown on opposite page in NYT Editorial.

 

RT has posted several op-eds the last few days:

But we'll be right in, right out, like bad prom-night sex, right?

 

Hopefully we don't dribble before we shoot.

 

I seem to recall some folks vigorously demanding congressional approval on things like this a few years ago.

 

Don't worry your silly little head about it. No one's forgotten.

[T]he White House faces an American public deeply skeptical about being drawn into the Syrian conflict and a growing chorus of lawmakers from both parties angry about the prospect of an American president once again going to war without Congressional consultation or approval.

 

Illegal according to international law? Snort!

 

Depends. Is the prom bad? Or the sex?

 

Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Syria doesn't quite have a ring to it.

 

As long as e're talking bombs, just curious: Which NBA referee is getting bombed in your .gif?
