Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., who met with the rebels last month and has been a vocal critic of the president's Syria policy said in a joint statement with Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C.: "We appreciate the President's finding that the Assad regime has used chemical weapons on several occasions. We also agree with the President that this fact must affect U.S. policy toward Syria. The President's red line has been crossed. U.S. credibility is on the line. Now is not the time to merely take the next incremental step. Now is the time for more decisive actions."

If in the history of wars there was ever one we shouldn't get involved in, it is this one, yet we are now supplying military aid to al Qaeda loyalists.    |
Uhuh, that has already been accomplished,i.e. G W Bush's invasion of a sovereign nation..Iraq...We should just stay out of Syria and let the two sides fight it out..
Watched most of Frontline tues nite, Syria Behind The Lines...interviews with both sides and both saying they are fighting for a free Syria..
