How long after we demand Syria's leader step down, until we start the bombings?

Edited on Wed Aug-10-11 07:06 AM by NightWatcher

Washington (CNN) -- The United States is moving toward issuing an explicit call for Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to step down, U.S. government sources told CNN Tuesday.
The move is expected to be announced in coming days after U.S. officials consult with the United Nations Security Council, the sources said.

Will we simply enforce a no-fly zone as in Libya? Will we launch drones as in Yemen and Pakistan?

If you look back at the PNAC agenda, and read about the neocon's grand plan--they explicitly
say that they want these countries, in this order: Iraq, Iran, Syria, Libya.

That patch of countries is the gateway foothold that gives them the geography and the resources
to begin exploiting the resources of that region and dominating with military might.

It's all in their plan. I just can't believe that they're making such speedy progress. Obama
sure has helped them a great deal. Makes me want to weep.

The walls are closing in.
