not to mention the 1 million child refugees from syria. it's dystopic over there.
make no mistake - this IS the united states playing world police. but unlike the past 10+ years of global intervention, this is the one time where the US has a logical reason to be the world police.
it's like in "the wire," where there are the "good" police who know the neighborhood and stop the distress when people are in disarray. and then there are the "bad" police, which just go to the corners to kick the shit out of people they don't understand.
for the past decade and a half, the US military has been doing bad world policing, and now nobody trusts us / wants us when actual good assistance can be given. but i mean, this is what you get when you have corrupt and incompetent fucktards running the government and allowing private military industrial machines to profit over loss of life.
i'd imagine the UN / france will strike first, and the US will use this and their positioning in turkey to send a message to both russia and iran at the same time. but if anything goes wrong, man, then watch out. if syria, say with the help of weapons from russia or iran, were able to strike down a stealth fighter and parade the body of the pilots through the streets, then we have a huge, huge problem.
