Umm, why do you think we should have boots on the ground in Syria?  I remember a thread about Obama conducting air strikes in Syria from the old board and is seems the people who criticized Obama for conducting the air strikes are the same people who criticize him now for not using ground forces in Syria.

Iraq is a stupid comparison because it was a war that wasn't organized and had no chance of succeeding.  

We need to crush Syria, and the airstrikes alone won't do it.  

We need can't let Iran keep being strengthened with a stronghold in Syria.   

Extremist groups are forming all over Syria.

Because we have allies that need Assad defeated.

Take your pick.
