Removing Assad and stabilising Syria would certainly be a cause I'd be more than willing to sign back up for. I know life is not as simple as this. But in my relatively short time on this planet I have seen the international community fail too many ordinary people, too often.
Bosnia was a cluster for the first 5 years.
Rwanda wasn't even entertained.
Sierra Leone only became palatable once we cut deals for diamond mining.
Somalia was, politically at least, a half-hearted attempt.
It seems Syria will be added to that list also. It makes me feel physically ill when I contemplate the suffering of these children and their families; suffering which we seem powerless or unwilling to bring to an end.
