War is on Every Tongue

   So, the nation's eye has turned to Syria, and we all talk of whether to go to war. We hear threats of reprisals from various corners. We hear theories for why Obama wants to conduct the military engagement. We fear a regional war, and we feel concern for doing nothing.
   We hear details of what will be involved in the limited attack, and we think of the "Shock and Awe" that kicked off the Iraq War.
   I do not know whether the meme below, found on Facebook, is true. Is the vote to be Sept. 11? That is interesting, if true. I doubt the part about our effort aiding al-Qaeda. That seems a twist. We do not know that al-Qaeda will come to power if the rebels win, so to spin it as a war to aid al-Qaeda is to take one of the possible outcomes, and discard the rest.
