Exclusive: Obama Asks Pentagon for Syria No-Fly Zone Plan

by Josh Rogin May 28, 2013 3:06 PM EDTUpdatedPentagon spokesman Dave Lapan sent the following statement to The Daily Beast after this story posted: "There is no new planning effort underway. The Joint Staff, along with the relevant combatant commanders, continue to conduct prudent planning for a range of possible military options."


Along with no-fly zone plans, the White House is considering arming parts of the Syrian opposition and formally recognizing the Syrian opposition council, reports Josh Rogin.

The White House has asked the Pentagon to draw up plans for a no-fly zone inside Syria that would be enforced by the U.S. and other countries such as France and Great Britain, two administration officials told The Daily Beast.

And we all saw how that works with the Libya no fly zone. As the Arab League found out to its horror it means that the the sovereign state is meant to lie down like a door mat while the 'civilised' west carpet bombs the cities and infrustructure only to award themselves the contracts to later rebuild it all with their tame puppet in place running things for them. It does not mean that there will be no flying of planes.
