Mate, it is broke.
Only if you're Syrian. If you aren't then what responsibility do we have to try to fix the internal squabbles of some other country? This time around we aren't even going in on the grounds that Syria are threatening in any way to use their WMD's externally, (the ones that most likely came from Iraq and maybe a few others they already had), we are planning on going in on the grounds that they allegedly used them against themselves... Sort of like beating yourself over the head with a cricket back and hoping someone will come along to stop you.

Personally, I'm fed up with fixing other people's crap. I have a phrase I use at work a lot. "A screw up on your part does not necessarily mean there's an emergency on mine"...

I think that applies here....
