      Glaring omission is reference to every single prominent (D)emocrat politician (both Clintons, Algore, JFKerry, etc,etc) who right up until the invasion of Iraq were calling for military intervention based on Sodumb Insane's chemical weapons possession and capability, which was transported to Syria in 2002 and subsequently used by Assad against his own.....far more effective protection of USA would have been a well conceived energy policy and stringent border/port of entry control, both of which should have been effected 40+ years ago.
