Al Jazeera is reporting that Syria may be using chemical weapons on the rebels. It may “just” be tear gas. But it’s no secret that the West is worried about Syria’s chemical arsenal. In the last few weeks, we’ve seen patriot missles shipped to Turkey and Obama moving to support the opposition.
As bad as things have been in Syria, they be about to get a whole lot worse. But apart from making sure Israel, Turkey and iraq don’t get caught in the crossfire, I really don’t think we can get involved.

Preaching to the choir here. The trick is to convince your president to mind his own business this time. I’d mention congress critters too but they weren’t even consulted for the last mis-adventure.

Plus there’s Russia’s involvement-including sending some ships and reportedly having soldiers on the ground there-which would open up a whole new can of worms.
