My solution to the Syrian blood bath

Hurr durr, blow up stuff, invade and install regimes we like.

Obviously you mean it sarcastically, but in all seriousness there are many places where this really should be done. However, we should keep in mind priorities - Iran, not Syria, should be Priority #1.

Do you really think we've had success in installing regimes we like in Afghanistan, Iraq, or Libya?  We have the power to go in and kick over the Syrian anthill as we did in the other three, but we have little ability to control what would result.

Right, because it would be hard, we shouldn't help.  I understand.  I don't agree, but I understand.

No, its because there is no reason to believe that the result of our intervention would be significantly better than the current awful situation.

I just have a hard time watching people die, knowing we can do something to help and sitting on our hands.

No, you know we can do something, but you don't know that what we could do would help, and there is a significant chance it would do harm.
