Oh those crazy Neocons.

Secretary of State John Kerry has been clashing with senior military leaders over U.S. strategy in Syria, The Wall Street Journal reported late Monday.

Kerry and United Nations Ambassador Samantha Power have laid out several options to intervene in Syria’s civil war, according to senior officials who spoke to the Journal.

Their proposals include the use of military intervention to weaken President Bashar al-Assad’s regime. They've also suggested sending in U.S. special operations forces to train Syrian rebels.

Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Gen. Martin Dempsey, however, have opposed the idea of military intervention, the report said.
