They don't have a constitution right now, but they may get one. If these rifles were channeled to the rebels [I have mixed emotions about arming "rebels", some of them taliban. After all it has came back to bite us in the ass before] They may just be able to throw out that government and get a new one [one that just might write up a constitution].
I had not formed a opinion on this hole situation until yesterday. That is when I heard about chemical weapons being used on their own people. To me that is the line in the sand. ANY government willing to gas its own masses needs to go.
So at that point we have a couple choices. Arm and train the rebels, or get involved and help them by sending in our own troops [Not boots on the ground I would hope, but planes and bombs] and help them overthrow their government. I really don't know what option would be a better choice.
