On Syria

The recent events in Syria would normally compel me to write a post.

However, as the one I wrote five years ago still applies, I think I’ll stick with it. Even my criticisms of the Bush Administration can still apply to this one.

One caveat: I’d place far heavier emphasis on Reaganesque liberation (support anti-regime elements until they overwhelm and overthrow the regime) - as opposed to overt military force – than I did in 2006. That aside, the need to rid the planet of this odious, terrorist-sponsoring tyranny is, if anything, greater today than it was then.
