Anyone who thinks 'Regime change' is actually going to make Syria better is a complete crackhead, and I include the last three Secretaries of State and numerous senior Senators on both sides of the aisle, as well as most of Fox's line-up of national security talking heads in that.
It will have a salutary effect in showing a whole lot of world leaders, mainly outside that region, that we have a new sheriff and he isn't the complete vacillating dildo his predecessor was.
But anyone thinking we can 'Fix' Syria learned abso-frickin'-lutely NOTHING from the last 15 years of US relations with SW Asia. And it's not just because of THAT place being such a shithole, it has to do with the way our OWN media and political mechanisms work with anything difficult and expensive that requires more than four to eight years to see to a final, permanent conclusion.
