The U.S. should establish a safe zone for rebels fighting against Syrian President's Bashar Assad’s regime, the Arizona Republican said on CBS’s “Face the Nation.” Assad
is now prevailing in the battlefield against resistance troops, McCain

Middle East. The U.S. and its allies, he said, should crater Syria’s
runways with standoff Cruise missiles and use Patriot missiles close to
the border to protect the safe zone. |
