The Russians have built some interesting militray stuff. IIRC, this is an example of the mortar they sold to Syria. I bet a round from one of these would ruin a UN picnic.

Thanks Meatloaf. While traditionally we FReepers are not fans of the U.N., Assad's Syrian troops firing on the invited U.N. delegation watchers, does not seem to have any upside to it.
With China, Russia and Iran joining the Arab League group today warning against any "foreign intervention at all" in Syria, which was then coincidentally or not, followed by the Russian ICBM launch over Israel, some country other than the aforementioned countries in short order will be expected to help.
If the U.N. doesn't take substantive immediate action to prevent further massacres in Syria, it's not high math to figure out which country will be tasked with that intervention.
