I agree with everything you say. And I also think the idea that we're going to be helping anyone by sending in air strikes on Damascus is deeply, deeply dubious.

I am broadly opposed to the US intervening in foreign countries at all, unless it's in very exceptional circumstances. I don't believe it's morally necessary for us to help every other country, I don't believe that we're able to do that - I don't believe that we always have the capacity to effect change, and I think that often our claims of moral obligation are complicated by considerations of interest and realpolitik and many other things. I don't believe we necessarily have the moral license to do it. And I think doing it is not really good for us - deeply harmful for our politics internally, more than anything else. I think it's the product of an imperial outlook, and I do not think that we ought to be an empire.
