(Financial Times-UK) James Blitz - In the aftermath of a chemical weapons attack on the eastern suburbs of Damascus, the U.S. is clearly contemplating military action. Many military experts suggest a one-off intervention by the U.S. and its allies which signals that they will not tolerate the continued use of chemical weapons by the Assad regime in this conflict. Brig.-Gen. Mike Herzog, a former senior figure in Israel's Ministry of Defense, says the U.S. should conduct what he calls a "stand-off air strike" on a Syrian military establishment. "You could target airfields, air assets, helicopters. Hitting any of these in a single strike would do a lot of damage. If it is big enough Assad will take notice. It could deter Assad from allowing chemical weapons to be used in this way again." Failure to take any meaningful action would give the Assad regime the green light to use chemical weapons attacks on civilian population with even greater impunity.2013-08-28 00:00:00Full Article
