~How is that justification for attacking Syria (obviously I know the terrorists live there)...is there some vital US interest at stake? ~
Define US interest? I bet Syrian military is primarily targeted so the ISIS would have an upper hand. It worked in Libya and look how wonderful it is these days.
The US will lose some aircraft, and possibly an asset.
Obama is false flag wagging the dog.
He needs American anger at an outside "enemy", Russia.
