We have no friends in Syria.
Arab Spring or not, most of them hate the West and in particular the USA.
We don't know which side is the 'Good Guys' and which are the 'Bad Guys'. Almost certainly both are anti-West, so how can we support either side?
We are NOT the worlds Policeman. It is a bad situation which won't be made any better by our dropping some bombs. With all the waffeling by Mr. Obama even our allies have no idea what our plan is and his 'drawing a red line' makes us a joke in the Middle East.
Just reading the press reports we know that a former signifigant anti American and Isreali military force in the middle east is tearing itself apart and leaving their country in ruins. It will take 10-12 years for them to rebuild what they have destroyed in the last 2 years. If they are determined to kill each other then we should have enough common sense to keep out of it and let them get on with it.
We should just sit back and watch the radical nut cases kill each other. While they are busy with this they won't have time to also attack the West and there will be fewer of them for us to kill later.
