As Syria and possible U.S. action is coming to a head, some things still don't make sense.   

  • If, by most accounts, the Syrian army currently has the upper hand against rebel forces,  why would the Assad government risk bringing in more firepower aiding the rebels by using chemical weapons?  It just makes no sense.
  • If the US is planning on supporting the rebels, would we be aiding Al-Queda sympathizing rebels who seem to be just as brutal as the Assad regime.  Again, it makes no logical sense. 
  • Further complicating this is the supposed report that the Saudi and other governments would finance our actions against Syria.  Does this make us hit man for hire in the world?

I don't see the sense at this time of getting involved in this civil war.
