That's one way of putting it. Another is that we need to look at the long term cost/benefit of our action overseas. I'm not saying we shouldn't impose a no-fly zone (and bomb their antiaircraft sites beforehand), but that we should carefully weigh the consequences thereof before acting.

In other words, ready-aim-fire, not ready-fire-aim.
