Well, so be it, chemical weapons not being new news. As Samantha Power would tell the President, 90,000 dead, who cares, unless they used chemical weapons. Iran and Hizbollah having a substantial presence in this hemisphere for a long time, I'm sure we're ready for any reprecussions. After all, we have their phone calls. Assad is winning, which I suspect is the real issue. At least McCain admits it. In view of our forthcoming escalation, wonder what the USSR, sorry Russia, new people now, does. Wouldn't take much to pay us back for Afghanistan. Give the good terrorists weapons (money) to fight the bad terrorists (not that long ago folk like Nancy Pelosi thought Assad was the good terrorit), OK. Military force, not my choice but we better be prepared to win on behalf of our Sunni allies. Wonder if the Saudis and Egypt will ever use the arms we sell them for something other than attacking Israel. Call up the Turks too, they've got overwhelming force to put Assad to bed, and a base of operations in Turkey. Don't need us, don't even need the Euros.

I am sick and tired of the rest of the Arab world sitting idly by while the West invests its own money and blood for doing what is right by the innocent civilians there in the Arab countries. Why can't we for once LET them rule themselves. Why does America have to be the one the world cries to to settle the wars of these countries? Doesn't Saudi Arabia care about Muslims in Syria? Doesn't Jordan, Turkey, Egypt, Dubai, Kuwait, etc.? We can send medical help and food aid, but getting into military aid is asking for yet another mideast war. That MAY be exactly what Islamists really want so they can continue to bleed us dry.
