H/T to Hotair.

Neuterring Hizbollah is the goal.

...there is an important step the United States can take to change Israel's calculations -- helping the people of Syria in their battle against President Bashar al-Assad's regime.

LOL, the Muslim Brotherhood knife in Israel's back will certainly stabilize the Middle East,... for the Caliphate.

We're not done with the possibility of an Israeli strike on Iran

IMHO it is IMMINENT!!!

There is no good reason to intervene in Syria. The current status quo is a win win for the USA. Let the Sunnis and Shiites have it out against each other. Let the Jihadis turn their suicide bombers against Iran and her allies, which currently include Russia and China. The long term threat is Iran and her nuclear weapons. By letting the bloodbath continue in Syria, the Sunni world, the vast majority in the ME, will turn its vengence against the Shiite trio of Iran, Assad, and Hezbollah, with Russia and China to boot. So again, why should the United States get involved when the status quo is to our favor.

Either lying or a moron.

The Syrian opposition is very Iran friendly, Islamic, Muslim brotherhood types looking to overthrow a secular Nationalist government.

It would give Iran MORE power, not less, and open up yet another front for Islamic jihad.

Russia will want more then just a reset button to give up their port use in Syria. What will Obama give them in exchange ? Georgia ? (no not the peach state).
