It appears that the lack of support for action against Syria is that there are still questions as to who used the chemical weapons, the regime or the rebels.
I think any future problems in this regard can be easily solved by letting the National Security Agency loose to do what it is doing here at home. They could monitor phone and email communications, send drones to perform surveillance and profile likely troublemakers. We could increase jobs here at home by building another huge data collection center and hiring people to man it.
Oh, you say, we have the other intelligence agencies. According to Wikipedia we have 16 agencies. Maybe that's the problem.
It seems like once the NSA was given carte blanche to watch everything United States citizens are up to, they are getting the job done. I say put them in charge of doing the same around the world. It would be far more productive.
Here's the bottom line. Someone used chemical weapons and we allegedly don't know who. If that is true, we are inept. If it isn't true, then what is the real agenda?
