It's not bad....but I don't quite understand what purpose it serves, short of a "hey look what we can do if we're pissed off" demonstration.


Does it need to serve anything beyond that? He's currently negotiating with China over N. Korea. The world now knows if they cross a line they could be, without warning, blown up.


The United States has the most extensive military in the history of civilization....we shouldn't need to blow up a building in the middle of nowhere for the world to know that.


The whole point of a huge military is lost if nobody thinks you'll use it. Obama said Syria crossed a red line and we did nothing, so Assad likely believed he could keep doing whatever he wanted. Now he knows that's not the case.
