Will the West Act ? - Syria


Telegraph: Reports that the Free Syrian Army, the main opposition group has called for the West to take Military action against the Assad Regime.

Lets Get Real:

The UN is blocked by the Russian Veto, the Coalition UK Government would have trouble staying together if there was no UN approval for action, the French have a new Government, do they want to get in to War that quick and President Obama does not want to inflame his liberal left wing Democratic base by starting another War in the Middle East. One suspects that those opposed to the Assad Regime are getting defence support from other States in the region, that are opposed to the Assad Regime. Thus what could the UN do, it could pass a no fly zone, or better a no drive zone for tanks, thus prevent the latest attacks. The problem folks is that the Assad Regime if it really feels under threat could cause problems for Israel and Lebanon. If Syria takes military action against either it could cause a regional War, thus don't expect the West to take action soon in Syria folks, its a can worms the West does not want to open.
