Wheels turn, decisions to be made. Glad I am not President. Now watch Putin.

AP US forces move closer to Syria as options weighed
Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel declined to discuss any specific force movements while saying that Obama had asked the Pentagon to prepare military options for Syria. U.S. defense officials told The Associated Press that the Navy had sent a fourth warship armed with ballistic missiles into the eastern Mediterranean Sea but without immediate orders for any missile launch into Syria.

EDIT-This seems odd about the article. “ballistic” may not be the right term for cruise missiles.
