Obama’s ‘Goldilocks’ strike on Syria

President Obama surprised friends and foes alike with his announcement in the middle of Labor Day weekend that he would attack Syria, but ask Congress for approval first. Even more surprising is the idea that anyone – friends, foes or Congress – would take seriously his Goldilocks-like strike plan, with its promise of “not too much, not too little, just right” amounts of death and destruction somehow calibrated to punish Hafez Assad for using chemical weapons, but not defeat him.

No one shows for Ohio gun control rally, it turns into a pro-2nd Amendment rally

New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg's "Mayors Against Illegal Guns" group likes to bill its goals as "common sense" reforms that will reduce the number of illegal guns in American cities. In reality, the whole "illegal" part is just there to make it sound more palatable. It's just another gun control outfit that sees all gun ownership as the problem, and it organizes events around the country where it presses for legislation that will curtail the 2nd Amendment.

Next on Syria: Leading From Russia?

This article was originally published in Forbes. Having failed to obtain a United Nations resolution on Syria, or assemble a robust coalition of the willing, or provide the American public with any clear strategy surrounding his plans for a limited strike, President Obama is no longer leading from behind.

The Chemical Attack in Syria: Different from Other Aggression against Civilians in the Civil War

Israel and abroad are criticizing him for this decision, noting that over 110,000 people, most of them civilians, have already been killed in the Syrian civil war, and the US took no military action whatsoever to stop the slaughter. They assert that there is no reason why the fact that civilians on the outskirts of Damascus were killed with chemical weapons should change the attitude toward the war, when it makes no difference to the dead and their families what killed them.

British Royal Mail strike threat over privatization plans

The term strike, as in workers refusing to work, should probably no longer be classified as news but should instead appear in the lifestyle section of a newspaper since this appears to be a normal way of doing business for unions. Once again postal workers in the UK are threatening to engage in such a lifestyle in response to plans by the British government to sell off the Post Office to private interests.

We look at facts and see a clear distinction between two situations. When George W. Bush believed it was necessary to invade Iraq, he asked for a congressional resolution authorizing the attack, and he got it. Hillary Clinton, John Kerry and Joe Biden were among the senators who voted to authorize Bush's action. He went to the United Nations Security Council and got a 9-7 vote in favor, but that wasn't enough because the French and the Russians used their veto power. Still, he got a majority.
