Seriously? What are you, 12? Syria has represented the most immediate threat to the State of Israel since Israel was recognized by Jordan and Egypt.
Yes..I am actually 12...such an awesome come back junior...
In case you didn't know...Iran is a far bigger threat to the State of Israel than Syria could even hope to be. If the United States ever turned the Israeli's loose, it would take about 1-2 weeks, maybe 3 for Israel to tear Syria a new a-hole.

"Muh, oil..." Maybe you haven't noticed, but Syria is of MAJOR importance to Israel, and apparently Israel is of major importance to the US, therefore...
Yeah...in case you have not noticed, oil, whether you like it or not, is a fairly significant item on the list of "things that are vital to the national security of the United Sates."
Liberal tears, soy, free wifi, pixie dust, gender-neutral bathrooms, or any other pseudo-intellectual desire to undermine, or change, our petroleum-based economy is simply friggin laughable and not worthy of discussion....go protest a wind farm for killing birds or some other worthy cause.

I can't believe there are so many ignorant fricks on here that have to have all this spelled out for them.
Look, before you include me in your "ignorant fricks on here" list, I used to be you...I used to believe that the USA could effect change in the Middle East. And to some extent, I still believe it is possible...but then we got the bill...Trillions of dollars wasted, thousands of dead American men and women, tens of thousand more who were maimed or dramatically affected by our "noble mission."
And what have we "achieved"? All we have simply done is moved the chess pieces around the board...

Yeah, you're definitely in the Ignorant frick bin, as I do NOT believe we can effect positive change in the Middle East - if any at all - especially through militarism rather than trade.
I was against the Gulf War, I was against the Iraq War, I was against the War in Afghanistan, I was against participating in the war in Syria and the war in Libya, I am against supporting the Saudis and the Egyptians, and I'm extremely wary of supporting Israel. I am also against being beholden to NATO member Turkey.
You have never been me.
Oh, BTW, as far as:

I love oil and our addiction to it, when the price of oil goes up, my revenue increases. That doesn't mean I have to be held hostage by a bunch of diaper-wearing barbarous Saudis over it. As a matter of fact, the less oil coming out of the ME, the more revenue for me. So I'm not quite sure what you meant with all your bullshite about soy and whatnot.
