No, that's not possible. My bad.
Interesting concept especially the 'saving' part.

Must be the same positive motives that made them invade Iraq and Afghanistan and also bomb Libya.
Makes me wonder what's wrong with Syria, those ppl could use some help too, don't you think?

swiss, as much as I see your point, let's try not to turn this into a political thing.

The geographical location of Syria makes this a very dangerous place to try a Lybia type solution.
Plus, there's a Russian aircraft carrier in Sirian waters making sure nothing happens.

1. I do not understand the part with the geographical location.
2. The Kuznetsov is supposed to arrive in spring 2012, somewhen.
Right now it's somewhere in the Baltic sea, the Syria stop is just pick up supplies. It will also visit Genua, Cyprus, Beirut etc.

3. to Sternjäger: Noted. I'll try.

lol I was kinda waiting for a post along these lines it's not to the point though, I wonder whether the cause of American entry to war was not that infamous unexpected attack or there was a hidden agenda running..
