Warplanes Massing in Cyprus

Jet fighters and military transport aircraft have been reported massing at RAF Akrotiri, a British military airbase on Cyprus just a hundred miles distant from Syria.

There's still no clear indication of what targets western warplanes would seek to hit or what they would hope to achieve.  In other words this is already shaping up to be another one of those wars where we have no idea going in what victory would look like or how to get out either.
