Before taking on Syria, U.S. should heed lesson of the past

U.S. Marines search for victims in Beirut on October 31, 1983, eight days after an attack that killed 241 American soldiers.

STORY HIGHLIGHTS

Syria becomes a greater emergency with each passing day, says Kiron K. Skinner

But U.S. must think twice before entering yet another Middle East battlefield, she says

Skinner: America's involvement in Lebanon three decades ago tells us what could transpire

We should keep in mind Caspar Weinberger's national security doctrine of 1984, she says
