    Official: White House Seeks Syria Response “Just Muscular Enough Not To Get Mocked”
    The Hill / ‎8‎/‎28‎/‎2013‎

    A U.S. official briefed on the military options being considered by President Obama told the Los Angeles Times that the White House is seeking a strike on Syria “just muscular enough not to get mocked.”

    “They are looking at what is just enough to mean something, just enough to be more than symbolic,” the official told the paper, giving credence to similar reports describing a limited military strike in the aftermath of last week’s alleged chemical weapons attack.

    NBC News reported earlier this week that the administration would launch three days of missile strikes, while CNN cited a senior administration official saying that the White House wanted to conclude any action before the president departs for the G-20 summit next week.

    The New York Times also reported that the initial target list drafted by the Pentagon had fewer than 50 sites.
