Bombing Syria: Little Gain but Much Cost and Risk

“In all the administration’s talk about punishing Assad, who did not order this chemical attack, there is very little talk about strategy or the negative effects of bombing. Bombing is being viewed naively as much gain at little cost and risk when the opposite is more the case, little gain at much cost and risk. Has the administration and Congress seriously considered how it is poisoning relations with Russia and China? Has it considered the risk of a direct confrontation with Russia, which arms Assad? Has it considered the sensitivity of the Suez Canal and the Straits of Hormuz to interruption of shipping? Has it considered what it will do if, after bombing, the Syrian situation worsens?”
