The US Presidency/leadership team told lies to cover for the Benghazi massacre so do we know if we will be told the truth in the Syrian conflict. If it is determined that a military strike gives more power to the Muslim Brotherhood, then for certain the Syrian question takes on a larger scope. The Muslim brotherhood treats the citizens as in Egypt and Tunisia, almost as animals. If the brotherhood rises to power with the capability of using chemical weapons,  then the Arab world has much to be concerned about. Time in Prayer needs to be given to decide the best defense plan for the US. The final decision will have many negatives no matter what the decision.  This is a situation where we will have to act with the knowledge that nothing is going to turn out great or to our visible advantage. Such a situation is always a tough  sell to the American people. It is hard for me to grasp that Obama was going to act and then he would only act if he had Congressional authorization and now it may hinge on the UN.  Wow! In football Obama the quarterback would have been sacked before you could say pass.
