So, the Syrians gassed more of their people again...
The last strike we did on them was little more than a hand slap. They got their airfield up and running again in 2 days (or so).
In order to actually punish them for this attack, we would have to spend a lot more resources. I honestly do not think that Syria is worth it.
We need to pursue a soft power diplomatic approach here. I would recommend going after Russia via the EU. I am quite certain the the Europeans don't want a chemical weapons arms race, so they would likely be willing to pay a higher gasoline/LNG/propane bills to sanction the Russian energy sector. That would hit Russia and actually leave a mark.
Any further military strikes in Syria are too costly to be worth it.
