The problem is religion. In Syria (and also in Iraq) people are getting killed because they belong to different branches of the same ridiculous religion.
This is something everyone must read, from the front page of today's New York times: Hardships Mounting for Refugees Inside Syria
Should America do something about these atrocities? The President of the United States and most Americans say "Who cares?"
Perhaps they are right. Religious violence can't be fixed because insane can't be fixed.
However, I personally think our wimpy president should have destroyed Assad's war planes and missiles like he said he was going to do before he found a wimpy excuse to get out of it.
From now on everything Obama says can be ignored because he has permanently ruined his reputation.
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne

This could only happen in a Muslim country. In Syria desperate people are eating dogs and cats to stay alive.
