the situation it's kind of ironic since the US has a lot of deaths by guns (like Syria and many other countries) but this guy says that the goverment doesn't care about shooting people, hence they didn't "care" until Syria came up with chemical weapons.
The sad thing is we are killing millions of innocent babies every year and we don't do anything to stop it, yet when another country kills other innocent people we have to become the disciplinarian for the world.
the reason we wish to interfere is the Geneva convention protocol outlawing the use of chemical weapons in warfare. Sure, Killing people 'normally' with bullets and bombs is horriffic but the difference between that and Chemicals is that the former can target a specific area. Chemical weapons drift wherever the wind takes them, killing young and old, innocent and guilty, mercilessly.

Detroit and Chicago aren't a potential ally for the UN and the US in sorting out the Middle East. as much of a hell as they are, at least we haven't seen any chemical weapons or murderous dictators... yet.
