What do you do when the wolf is in front of the door? Do you move back from the door and then kneel down and pray and hope that everything is okay? Or do you take some action? In this kind of situation, the wolf is not at the door yet, but the wolf is coming. The wolf has told you that he is coming. There is a lot of logic into taking preemptive measures to make sure that the wolf does not come to the door. I would rather have the fight there than have it here. The limited fight that we are going to do is the use of our air power, once we train what is called moderate Syrians--opposition. I don't know how that is going to turn out, but I do know that we have no choice but to do something. We must build up the ground forces over there with our partner nations to enter the fight on the ground. We support them. I support this resolution offered by the chairman of the HASC Committee. Mr. McKEON. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Alabama (Mr. Byrne), my friend and colleague and a member of the Committee on Armed Services.
