Im conflicted on this one .... I dont like how we are forced to fight so in most cases I would just as soon stay out of any fight that does not directly threaten the homeland ..... but seeing children killed by chemical weapons is a pretty good reason to intervene.

Yeah I am as well; I understand the desire to respond but I really don't see any interest for the US getting involved.

I have mixed emotions on this ..
I do have a problem with the USA being the world's policeman, but how can we sit idly by and watch that going on?
Trump is just doing what Obama refused to do after drawing that "red line".
My and my wife's biggest question is - Why is he gassing his own people? To get the "rebels" and the civilians are collateral damage?
