Talking heads

Today, the "news" analysts will talk the Trump-ordered attack on Syria until they are blue in their faces. There truly is little new to address:

1. What are the strategy and end game for Syria?
2. What are the strategy and end game for Russia?
3. What are the strategy and end game for Iran?
4. What are the strategy and end game for China?
5. What are the strategy and end game for North Korea?
6. What are the strategy and end game for Palestinians and Israel?

Among those things, where do you begin? The answer is, everywhere and all at once.

As the King of Jordan underscored, Middle East peace begins with Palestinians and Israel, and this should get immediate attention.

Russia is on top for all sorts of reasons.

China tops most because China can be strategically important to all of the rest as America's banker and trading partner.

Places like Syria, North Korea, and Iran will intervene by making themselves urgent subjects. Iran is sufficiently intelligent to lay low unless they get scarred in Syria.

Congress needs to get to work and to collaborate in a bipartisan manner. Instead, they will take a vacation.
