So let me know if I understand this correctly, again....

Kerry and 0bama want to use our military air power to attack the military assets of a sovereign nation on that nation’s soil without a declaration of war and without that nation having committed any act of war against the United States. Do I have it right?

Because now I would like them to explain how that is somehow different than what the Japanese did on the morning of December 7, 1941. And at least the Japanese tried to deliver something like a declaration of war, but they had a bad typist.

According to the article (and remember, it's the WaPo), this time around Kerry and Obama are skeptical of the use of military force. It's the CIA and the Joint Chiefs who are pushing for it.

This could, of course, be just a smokescreen to protect Kerry and 0bama.

I posted the article because SOMEONE in the administration is advocating for military action against Assad. And that would almost certainly bring us in conflict with Russia.

You understand it correctly.

Syrian Christians are being protected by Assad. Once he’s gone, they’re dead.
