I am not sure what is worse for America, the fact we arent going on this little beano to Syria or the fact that of all the countries to partner them, it's the French, which is quite ironic considering there staunch opposition to the Iraq War 10 years ago.

Israel should be unleashed on them, they will take no prisoners, fair enough, that might see the whole region erupt, but they would do a job and they always have no mercy for anyone who fights them...

On a serious note, any intervention should be a Peacekeeping Force with the strictest rules of engagement in place and act as a buffer, either a UN Peacekeeping Mission, An Arab League Mission or NATO Mission.

Common sense on our part has prevailed, I am glad to see democracy has won in this instance
