Pentagon Press Secretary George Little gave a vague answer when asked if U.S. troops were prepared to assist should an international agreement allow Russia to take control of the tons of chemical weapons believed to be in the stockpiles of President Bashar al-Assad.
"I'm not going to speculate on who may or may not be participating in a process that may or may not take place," Little said. "We've got to see where the process goes" before the U.S. military considers involvement, he said.Military.com , Seinfeld Episode 55,

Unlike automobiles, electronics and entertainment, there will always be a global market for the U.S. military.
"Boots on the ground?" Wow. Realy? Somebody actually getting around to acknowledging a simple matter that anyone who has actually participated in a war knows automatically? F'in A!
Somehow, boots on the ground in Jordan, just an inch or so from the Syrian border, don't really count as boots on the ground in Syria. Morons.
They are doing the Hokey Pokey, because that's what's it all about!
The name, "Mogadishu", ring any bells?
Those boots are made for balkin', and that's just what they'll do...one of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you.
Barry's owners, the Saudis, want a win in Syria. So boots on the ground it will be.
Too cute.
It looks like Syria's sending the WMDs back to Iraq.
And now Choom's talking tough about Iran.
Can he be removed for insanity?
Obama puts your boot in,
Obama puts your boot out,
Obama puts your boot in,
And he shakes it all about,
Obama does the hokey pokey
and he turn himself around
That what it's all about.
In 1984, Soviet submarine captain Marko Ramius (Connery) commands Red October, a new vessel featuring a caterpillar drive rendering it undetectable to sonar. Ramius leaves port on orders to conduct exercises with the submarine V.K. Konovalov, commanded by his former student Captain Tupolev (Skarsgård). Once at sea, Ramius kills political officer Ivan Putin (Firth), the only man aboard besides himself who knows the sub's orders. He then burns the orders, replaces them with counterfeit orders, and commands the crew to head toward America's east coast to conduct missile drills.
A VERY tenuous link between the fictional world and the real world.
The real world exists as fodder for fiction.

I seriously doubt that American Troops will be on the ground. Even Obama is not that stupid.
I'm at the point where I think he's supremely confident that anything he does will eventually win the approval of the MSM, so why the hell not put troops on the ground.
This is the icing on the cake for me:
President Obama tried to deny claims that his administration poorly handled the Syria situation, and argued that critics were grading him based on “style points” rather than the effectiveness of his policy.
“I think that folks here in Washington like to grade on style,” Obama told George Stephanopoulos on ABC’s This Week. “And so had we rolled out something that was very smooth and disciplined and linear, they would have graded it well, even if it was a disastrous policy.”
“I’m less concerned about style points — I’m much more concerned about getting the policy right,” he continued.
Said by the master of style, and little else.
The video of the exchange is here. He simply oozes a sense of comfort and self-confidence.
Troop, Willie was dumb enough to send troops to Mogadishu.
And, like Willie, Choom wants a war.
