Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said Sunday that without intervention in the Syrian civil war, the entire region will “fall into chaos” by the end of the year. 

Appearing on CBS’ “Face the Nation,” Graham called for neutralizing the Assad regime’s air power by bombing Syrian air bases with cruise missels, a step he said could “turn the tide” without putting boots on the ground.
