The strikes will only weaken Assad and allow al Nusra (Syrian AQ) and other radical jihadists to take over.
To take a fairly secular country and hand it over to radical Islamists is appalling. But that's what will happen if the US enacts regime change.
Oh and by the way, Obama is going to help Qatar to get a pipeline for its natural gas reserves by deposing Assad..
What happened to the wingnut reasoning of deposing a murderous dictator, then killing all the al Qaeda who enter the country?
Because AQ are already there as part of the so called rebel force. Most aren't Syrians. It's bullshit that this is a civil war or an uprising.
FSA is barely better than AQ.
They are all radical islamists backed by Qatar and Saudi Arabia to depose Assad. The original "rebels" the secular ones have gone into hiding or have been killed by the radicals.
Both countries have spent untold millions trying to get rid of Assad. America is in Qatar's back pocket it seems, hell bent on getting rid of Assad so Qatar can get a natural gas pipeline.
You obviously are not up to speed.
