In the article "Civil War in Syria Raises Questions About When to Intervene"  tells how the war is affecting Syrian people and how they're are struggling. Many people there need food medicine and shelter to survive and many don't have it.

This article includes a quote from the secretary of the state Hillary Clinton saying " We are thinking about all of this. There's all kinds of both civilian and humanitarian and military planning going on but the factors are just not there". It's also states how Syria's president Bashar al-Assad believes that foreign actors and terrorist for the initial revolt and violence . The fighting is taking place in one of Syria's largest cities Aleppo. Only a couple of Aleppo's 200,000 citizens remain in the middle of the bombing and sniper fire.


I think that the U.S Troops should stay away from Syria. I believe they try to help the people they're trying to attack will come to the U.S and try to attack us. But I also feel bad for the innocent people being killed. Also if the troops go over to Syria when they kill the person they're looking for they're also killing innocent people too.

This article reminds me of when the U.S Troops helped kill Osama Bin Laden and Muammar al Khadafi. When they killed these two horrible men his supporters were devastated. They said that they would get back at the U.S for killing their leader.
