This situation is fucked up. On the one hand, I don't think we should have stated in the first place that "Assad must go". As I said previously, we keep sticking our foot in deposing middle eastern leaders and it's not going so well.
However, Obama did say that so assuming that Russia is targeting the U.S. backed rebels opposing Assad--we're fucked. If we sit idly by and allow that to happen we do appear as weak as a newborn ant.
Backed in to a corner. Do we really want to potentially go to war with Russia? Yeah, between Ukraine and this, they're asking for it (I do believe Putin would like to revive some form of the USSR) but crap on toast-not something that was high on my immediate to-do list.
