Assad and the Syrian army are doing a great job of taking out the terrorists, and bringing peace and stability back to Syria. They do not even need our help.

There are innocent men, women and children over there dying. If that means we have to go over there to save the day, so be it.
If I were in their shoes, I'd be on my knees begging to God for someone to come & save me. Don't act like you wouldn't.
They know no one is going to magically appear and save them. That's why they risking their lives at sea trying to reach Europe or walking to bordering nations. The more countries that intervene the more bombs fall from the sky. No one should have got involved in the first place, if the whole world sat back including the Jihadis and let the Syrians handle their own war, it probably would have been over by now.
We need @Type Username Here back on the regular.
here's my take.
its CIVIL WAR. did the world intervene when America had their North vs SOUTH? not really.
well at least not to our basic knowledge.
so that says to me. just because some country is going thru a rough patch of civil war in 2013, doesnt mean you should go messsing with them. let them sort it out.
and think of it like this. some will say but but but they have chemical weapons and more powerful weapons. true. SO... What... thats just the days we live in. things are different. the PEOPLE also have an advantage called the internet and cell phones. the people can be more organized now then they ever could back in civil war times. so it goes both ways.
now the truth of the matter is other countries did stick their nose in the american civil war. we just rarely talk about it. so again if it can happen for us, we should be able to help a side out in 2013. no difference.

wars dont fit in a neat little package for your simple minds
assad had been killing innocents from day 1

yes and a lot of it is currently being exracted and sold to gulf states - by isis. I doubt anyone will even dare to consider placing sanctions on any of these countries.Is there any oil in Syria?

Syria's problem is, partly, too much American intervention.
