We see what the president is saying right now, and its the right thing to say, but, the pentagons preparing and who ordered that? Anyway, the Chinese and Russians have vetoed every attempt for use of force in Syria so far and it's not likely they will relent. Lets hope the US does not act belligerent.
(CBS News) WASHINGTON - CBS News has learned that the Pentagon is making the initial preparations for a cruise missile attack on Syrian government forces. We say "initial preparations" because such an attack won't happen until the president gives the green light. And it was clear during an interview on CNN Friday that he is not there yet.
"If the U.S. goes in and attacks another country, without a U.N. mandate and without clear evidence that can be presented," the president told CNN, "then there are questions in terms of whether international law supports it -- 'do we have the coalition to make it work?' Those are considerations that we have to take into account."
