The question I answered was:
“Why do we give a rat’s patootie what the Syrians are doing to each other?”

It didn’t strike me as political and neither was my answer.

We can care all we want about the plight of Syrians, as long as we stay the hell out of it! No arms, no troops, no money, NOTHING.

If a situation in a foreign country, involving our national interest, requires a military response, let it be a nuclear response. In Japan it took two bombs, I don't think now days it would take more than one. Do this once or twice and after that, the “threat” alone would be enough.
