The debate over whether to take military against the Syrian regime for its alleged use of chemical weapons has been echoing around the hallways of Capitol Hill this week - and across the nation. We hear from a Syrian-born man who now lives in Massachusetts about why he opposes the Syrian rebels. Also, two US military veterans of the war in Iraq take opposing views on potential US military intervention. We have a conversation with the American reporter who tracked down members of the Syrian Electronic Army which is waging war on some Western media. And while President Obama has promised no US boots on the ground in Syria, we’ll find out how, nevertheless, the US army is trying to build a better boot for its soldiers.
