Syria or Libya

http://www.usnews.com/debate-club/should-the-us-intervene-in-syria-with-military-action/case-for-intervention-in-syria-stronger-than-in-libya


This article makes a case that Syria is in stronger need of military intervention than Libya. The author explains how Syria is on the brink of a civil war, and although the Obama administration has preached and talked how Assad's days are numbered..... But we have been all bark and no bite. Despite Syria's cries for help, we have not demonstrated any direct assistance to their likings. America is labeled as sitting on the sideline not acknowledging the Syrian people seeking their freedom.

Once again, an American author makes a comparison that is influenced by "weapons of Mass destruction." He uses Syrias ties with Iran and terroristic activities as a case to further increase our awarness to intervene. But what this all boils down to is politics and in my opinion; oil.
