Obama wants to lead the peace nics to war!
Where are the protests?
More importantly, where is the national interest in a civil war in the mid east for which both sides are brutal, and suck? Why pick sides? It's like trying to pick which is more of a slut, Miley Cyrus or Brittney Spears.

There were lots of protest from the left especially. I was glad to see people speak up but I have to admit the topic was confusing and complex. The paradox of Syria is why does it matter how I kill you, in this case how a dictatorial government kills its citizens. If I bomb you is that Ok? If I shoot you is that OK? If I promise not to gas you but will starve you instead is that Ok? Given that gas seems to be the only reason the world decided to get involved, if I promise not to use gas can I proceed with mass murder. And so long as my government, that is any government, doesn't use gas we're good with that. Thanks I have lots of bombs and other nations will stand in line to sell them to us. Maybe I have been reading too much Cormac McCarthy and the Glanton gang has addled my brain but at this point the best thing is threat, do it again and you.....
And so it goes and hopefully it goes towards peace. It may just be the threat has more power than we thought.

The "world" didn't decide to get involved. Obama did, before he bravely ran away. He made us look like clowns, because he is one.
