The problem here is that there aren't alot of choices about what to "do" about this. My fear about all of this is that there is a "belief" inside the White House that there is something militarily that can be done about this. It isn't really clear that there is. Especially if there is concern about people in the larger area. The reason we have to work so closely with those in the region is that it is their skin in this game, not ours.
