It's been suggested by some in the office today that cruise missiles worked effectively before and should work just fine now. Any thoughts on what is an acceptable use of force during armed conflict?

I don't know if they are really all that silent, Mister Matt. As a former employee I've heard plenty of them.

I care less about drones versus cruise missiles versus other weapons, and more about Congress declaring war before we use any of them.

Cruise missiles work perfectly when the media are not allowed to cover collateral damage, like dead civilians nowhere near the intended target.

Diplomacy. Pacifism Realizing that killing more Syrians as a response to Assad killing Syrians is asinine. Not drawing lines in the sand so that if you ignore the condition precedent threat you must then be seen as disingenuous and incredible. Caring more about doing the right thing than appearing macho and authoritative.

Being strong enough to be honest, moral and just.

Ditto with drones. The collateral damage caused by drone strikes has more than likely created more terrorists thanthey've killed.
