As the Obama administration contemplates a possible military strike against Syria, it would be useful for everyone to take a step back and ponder what we want to accomplish with such an attack.

What are the president’s objectives and how will an attack achieve those objectives? What are his options?

It’s understandable that we want to “do something.”

So what are the president’s options? Here are five:

Option One: Regime Change.

Option Two: Limited Attack.

Option Three: Arm the Rebels.

Option Four: Destroy the Chemical Weapons.

Option Five: Delay, Then Do Something Symbolic.
