So what do you think anyone should do about Syria?
======================

Anyone? Well for starters, let's see if there's anything that needs
doing.

Before anything is done, ask "For what problem is this a solution?"
And
even if you think you've got an answer to that question, stop and ask
another: "Why is this a problem?" Finally, before you take the next
step: "What evidence do we have that this is a problem?"

Finally, be sure the right people are asking these questions. I'd say
these questions belong in a global forum.

This is a start of at a global forum, and before anything happened, and
before all the prognosticators started up their prognostification
machines, I wanted to start asking questions. See if I could get some
commitment to principles at least. The "anything and anyone part" is
still open for sure. The "For what problem is this a solution?"
question is one of the possible "anythings." What are the answers that
you have to your own questions? Since you in Canada and Europe do not
have your eyes blinded by the light of your own super power brightness
and importance like us in USA. Do you see the bombing in Lebanon as a
problem, a symptom of a problem, anything to do with Syria? Maybe just
a gas line blew up, and we should all go home? Who are the right people
to be asking and answering these questions? Certainly not us on this
forum, but then who? We can ask, but our answers may be a bit short and
uninformed! TnT
