Should the west get involved with Syria

@Demented Said

They are clearly a country out of control and there doesn't seem to be any kind of law other than Mob Rule,with thousands killed and even more fleeing the country.

Do we ,the western nations,stick our noses into Syria's affairs when (in my opinion) far to many young men and women from western countries have been killed or maimed without any real result of a resolution to the problems there,or is not about time the UN called all the middle eastern nations to order and told them to sort out their problem peacefully and as quickly as possible??.

@shinobinoz Said

Yes & No???????

@Erimitus Said

Yes but not militarily.

@Demented Said

Trouble is Erimitus,that region of the world just love to hate everything that's got nothing to do with Allah,and that also includes the best intentions of the Western World.

@Erimitus Said

I do not know but I suspect that the average person in that region of the world just wants to live their lives and it is the extremists who love to hate.

What do you think the intentions of the intentions of the Western world are?

@Demented Said

I had a conversation years ago with a Lebanese Muslim who didn't like us Australians,he heaped it on our way of life and the country,in the end he asked me where I was from,I just smile and told him I'm about 18th generation Australian.
I then asked him to answer a question for me and he agreed,the question being,There are three things we all want in this life,what are they??.
He shook his head and didn't know,so I said,A roof over our heads,food on the table and somewhere safe for our children to grow up....he just stared at me for a few moments and said,your to wise for me and walked away.

I can't disagree with you about many of them just wanting to live their lives in peace,but we know the extremists or radical ratbags as I call them have other ideas.
If the Western World go in with Military Peace keeping forces??it gives them and excuse to blow it all out of proportion and turn it into an all out war (their mentality not ours)and if we go in with all good intentions of Medical help and Food rations??it would be seen as though we are sticking our noses in and start in on us and who knows what happens after that

@LuckyCharms Said

No.

Well here's the thing. Syria is a member of the UN. The UN has a convention and treaty outright banning the use of chemical weapons.

It's the duty of the UN to do something about it if Syria uses chemical weapons.

The UN inspection team is leaving Syria tomorrow and will report to the Secretary General.

So if the UN doesn't do anything, and it looks like they won't...... what's the point of the UN if it can't enforce its own rules on member states?
