  2. Pink line over Damascus

    WASHINGTON — You know you're in trouble when you can't even get your walk-back story straight. Stung by the worldwide derision that met President Barack Obama's fudging and fumbling of his chemical-weapons red line in Syria, the White House leaked to The New York Times that Obama's initial statement had been unprepared, unscripted and therefore unserious.

  8. Tilting Syria

    President Barack Obama painted himself into a corner last summer when he said Syrian President Bashar Assad's use of chemical weapons against rebel forces would be a "red line for us." Now there's evidence that chemical weapons have been used in Syria, and Obama is trying to extricate himself from the corner.

  9. Stay out of Syria

    With the Iraq War behind us and our departure from Afghanistan underway, the United States could be entering a well-earned respite from fighting. But even before peace can take hold, hawks are singing the old country song: "I've enjoyed as much of this as I can stand."

  11. Obama must find the best bad option in Syria

    Having vowed that any use of chemical weapons by Syria would cross a U.S. "red line" and provoke a strong American response "with enormous consequences," President Barack Obama now finds himself under increasing pressure to act, following reports by U.S. and foreign intelligence agencies that the regime of President Bashar Assad used deadly sarin gas against opponents last year. The problem for Mr. Obama is that the military options for enforcing his promise range from bad to very bad — while the risks of doing nothing may be even worse.
