Threats grow and grow these day, however to what extent do we take them seriously. Where do we make decisions based on the threats made? That answer for Congress would be eh let’s say December. Why? Because to face “Authorization for the Use of Military Force” may put Congress between a rock and an even harder place than they are now.

            Congress has decided, or rather not decided to address what Syrian rebels have to help and what ISIS may bring. The decisions of funds given to Syrian rebels to “oppose the Islamic state and temporarily fund the government” are about to be in question… later. Setting up the ever so clever “Syria cliff” leaving the National Government and its leaders to measure what actions may not return the worst consequences (all other events, Iraq and Afghanistan, in mind).

            This is important to keep an eye on as the government nears a critical midterm and political direction soon. So how fast will threat grow and will a December be soon enough?
