Clinton, speaking to a forum in Washington, added that intelligence also indicated that the Assad regime may be about to turn its forces against Syria's largest city, Aleppo, close to the northwestern border with Turkey.

"There seems to be a massing of Syrian forces around Aleppo which we've got information about over the last 24 or 48 hours. That could very well be a red line for the Turks in terms of their strategic or national interests," she said.

About 10% of Syrians live in Aleppo. More than 2 Million people.
It would cause apart from the bloodshed a more serious refugee flow.

Aleppo is a huge city. If street fighting starts there, it could run for years s no invader could ever hope to take it street by street.

It's also a really beautiful town with some wonderful old buildings and one of the greatest markets in the world, so I hope both sides try and preseve the heritage.
 
America: Stay Out Of Syria.

Russia AND China will kick our asses there either in person or by proxy, is that what you want?

Our Soldiers have served up to 7 tours in the Middle East. Isn't that enough?
