Word: After the bombing

George Kenney, Huffington Post - What if we know for a fact that Assad is responsible? Bombing him might hasten his demise but bombing Syria will not restore order there. We have no military doctrine, no set of tools, no magical inputs, nothing, period, short of a massive and indefinite occupation of Syria, that would help make things better. But if we're going to contemplate taking over Syria we must also ask ourselves what our interest for doing so may be. That question really has not yet been asked, let alone answered.
