Hope everyone had a good long weekend! I’m getting back into the swing of things today and am running a few hours behind. As I’m not a foreign policy or Syria expert, I’m trying to binge read as much as I can on the situation before forming an opinion and blogging about it. Doubt I’ll have anything on it today, but expect a couple posts throughout the week. In the meantime, here are some links:
