1. Nidal Hassan got the death sentence. Suck it libs.
  2. It's not to hard to see Assad, who's obviously crazy, decide after a Western attack that "those countries are a bit far away to strike back at, let's strike Israel instead". Then Israel strikes back, Iran and the U.S. joins the fight on opposing sides...

    Yeah, there's a risk this could end really badly.

    Would you cross a road if there was a one in a hundred chance you'd be killed?
  3. Do you cross the street during rush hour, with multiple 18-wheelers speeding by, and the Highway Patrol nowhere in sight? The odds of intervention in Syria ending badly are far higher than 1/100.

    Yeah, I agree. That was just an example. The risk of something like a WWIII because of this could be somewhere around there though.
  5. World War 3, is pretty unlikely. A major regional conflict is much more likely.

  6. Well, let's say most of the muslim nations join the war, and most of us Western nations. That's almost a WWIII.

    Not really. Most of Europe has no reason at all to get involved, and I cant see Russia doing anything other than supplying arms and advisers.

    Well, a lot of European nations are in the NATO.

    All I'm saying is that the Syria situation is taking "complex" to a new level and I don't think it's possible for a decisionmaker to understand at all.
  9. Most the countries in NATO, don't really do that much.

  10. Um. USA/Britain/France attacks Syria. Russia and China doesn't like it. Syria and Iran attacks Israel.

    And then you have USA/Britain/France on one side and China/Russia/Iran on the other. That's global conflict and it is a bad one. C'mon Obama, show that you're worth of your Nobel peace prize and start WWIII.
  11. Yeah, that scenario is quite scary, and worst of it, quite probable.
