Old men sending young men off to kill other young men and dying so old men can make tons of money. Stupidest and most destructive endeavour humans pursue. It is one of the proofs that we have not evolved at all as a species.
US To Give Military Aid To Syrian Rebels

- Start date
With the help of Trillions of nat gas off the coast of Lebanon, they sure can. Go Hezbollah go(with CDN/US backing)!
Those geographic positions of power are only maintained until and as long as they are necessary to complete the transfers of wealth from the host national organisms.They are expendable, ask the Germans ask the Romans ask the French ask the British even the ancient Greeks succumbed.The enemy is not a national entity it is the combined wealthy elite which a very long time ago fused together to ensure permanent dominance of money, mines, slaves and weapons manufacture. There are only two classes of human on this planet, the top and the bottom. The conspiracy of power is no theory, it's a fact of life.
... with somebody else doing the dying.
I despair of the USA ever keeping its nose out of sectarian conflicts. They don't seem to have learned from other experiences.
I don't get why you're saying this. Didn't the IAF do a couple airstrikes on Syrian Forces/Infrastructure? I can see WHY Israel would want Assad in power as he is has not shown to be too much of a threat.
By who?
The only exception of what?
And there was apparently more of it. The Dark Ages, Medieval Era... lots and lots of shield walls going up!
The US has been defeated politically by itself and the series of Pashtun insurgents called collectively called the Taliban. Even now a Taliban delegation is in Tehran, Iran acting as the legitimate govt. of Afghanistan. The US military never lost a fight. But they were betrayed by politicians, a dithering bureaucracy, and an uncaring public. The US loss became certain in December 2009 when Obama announced both the escalation and the date of withdrawal. That told the Taliban that they need only wait out the US and they would win the war.
Withdrawal from the Western alliance system.
I suspect many of barry's fanboys won't check the link:

USA has no business being in the ME. The capitol is supposed to be in Washington, DC. Not in Tel Aviv. Therefore, GTFO now!
President Obama has been training the Syrian rebels in the use of Manpads for months.
"WASHINGTON — White House officials refused to comment Friday on a Los Angeles Times report that CIA operatives and U.S. special operations troops have been secretly training Syrian rebels with anti-tank and anti-aircraft weapons since late last year, saying only that the U.S. had increased its assistance to the rebellion.
The covert U.S. training at bases in Jordan and Turkey began months before President Obama approved plans to begin directly arming the opposition to Syrian President Bashar Assad, according to U.S. officials and rebel commanders...."

And now the Syrian rebels have manpads in their possession. Here's the video:

PICS -container ship carrying weapons for Syrian rebels splits in half/sinks
'MOL Comfort sank due to yet unclear reasons, sailing from Singapore to Jeddah and after that to North Europe, leaving behind hundreds of drifting containers and a huge aftershock hitting liner sector and all of the maritime industry.
Even the scale of the consequences is hard, impossible, to estimate, not to mention consequences themselves. This is the 1st case in liner sector, when modern ocean-going liner container vessel (built in Japan!) sank in the ocean after breaking in 2 parts, like a poorly built and managed bulk carrier or over aged coaster. Nothing like this ever occurred, and no one believed it was possible, even theoretically. It just could not happen, but still, here it is.'

Throughout the ME, minorities are generally much safer under Shiia. Sunnis such as al-Qaeda are often intolerant.
