Now that US concludes that Assad regime used chemical weapons, what do you think would be course of action by US.

The US will just bomb Syria and send some random drone attacks to make sure nobody else dies. You know, its all about innocent people and their lives, its a humanitarian mission - as usual!

Glad Obama is such a smart, game-changing president with a very big heart (yes, we can!), and not that cold-blooded Bush psycho who was just into oil and $$$.

On a serious note: I think they might throw some bombs and wait and see, they might just be checking out Russia's and Iran's reaction. IMO there is no way they would ever go for a terrestrial occupation as per Iraq or Afghanistan, Hezbollah is too strong in Syria and they have plenty of money and weapons. US population ("the tax payers") are fed up of war, most do not buy that was indeed Al Assad who used chemical weapons as the ONU said there was no proof whatsoever, so the US cannot definitely afford another Iraq/Afghanistan... Or Vietnam. In my opinion they are just "testing the waters".

I say it is likely. The strategy seems to be an attempt to bait Iran into joining the conflict in order to justify full scale invasion of Iran.

The Russians save the day by adding more Risperidone to the US' water supply?
