Why would Israel enter into a fray on the side of the Muslim Brotherhood? Both sides in the Syrian conflict are evil, what on earth would possess the US to be involved? Even if chemical weapons are used, why is it always our people who are sent to fight? Isn’t this a UN issue? Let them round up some other country’s soldiers to deal with this one.

Finally, is this really Israel’s last ditch effort to draw us into a war with Iran, because Iran would side with Assad?

Holy mackerel, folks! Radical Muslims killing radical Muslims on their own turf. What is the problem here?

Good news like when Iraq and Iran were killing each other.

While I understand, and agree with some of your sentiments, it would be societal suicide to sit back and watch this mess devolve. It will not end quickly, nor very clean, but what is sure is that numerous enemies of the US would end up with large stockpiles of chemical weapons, including VX. Iran could then launch false flag operations, using chemical/biological/dirty nuke (Yes, Syria has yellowcake and other nasty nuclear materials) attacks against the mainland US, and be able to plausibly deny that they had anything to do with it. We may not find all the WMD's, but we might make it difficult to smuggle large quantities out of the country. Either way, we have a losing hand, with our soldiers taking the brunt of the casualties, but do you still advocate doing nothing? Inaction in the face of almost certain mass casualty events on our homeland demand that we do any, and everything possible to eliminate the threat. I would even go so far as using tactical nukes to make sure you get the WMD's, or at least poison the area around where they are stored, as to make them inaccessible. You could issue a humanitarian warning 8 hours in advance, and tell them if they try to move military equipment or any types of trucks, the attack would be triggered instantaneously.
