I admire your trust in our leaders. They must wish there were more like you.

I've got no problem with us acting in Syria.

But before we do, I'd just like to know:

1. What do we hope to achieve by our action? And how might we effect this?
2. When we've done it, will we and the Syrians be better or worse off?
3. What are the chances that our intervention will make things worse or better, in the long term?
4. If we go in, how will we leave?

All, as I'm sure you appreciate, the 'nuts and bolts' of any military operation.

When I've seen these points outlined, I'll be able to decide if my representatives are acting prudently, or just making complete cnuts of us all, like they did the last couple of times that they waded in without a fukcing clue what the hell they were trying to do, what the consequences might be, and how the f%ck they were going to get out!

Once bitten, twice bitten......
