Killing people in Syria is not going to end the events that happened in Ottawa, Canada. There they go again.
Syria is 6700 miles away from the USA and Canada. The Syrian civil war had absolutely nothing to do with Ottawa.
Try this one on for size. The astronomical use of fossil fuels in the USA and drilling techniques that emit large amounts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere has caused an artificial warming of Earth. Due to that warming, there have been vast droughts in the Middle East and considerable drought in Syria that has now sparked unrest and a civil war. Why would sending troops into the Middle East change that reality? The USA military now comes with divining rods and incantations to cause it to rain?
For what seems like forever, Russia has been a so called ally to Assad, but, then the going got tough Russia got going and hasn't been back. Now, Russia is attempting to have relations with Jordan so they can be protected by USA alliances while having a presence in the region.
Russia is not interested in the Middle East except for any capacity to spy. Syria never had a strong ally in Russia so much as a seaport that permitted the Russians to state they rival the USA in Italy. Russia has a profound yellow streak up it's back and send their jets into international waters to pretend to be a military capable of an invasion into Europe. Today, there are helicopter drones flying around France's nuclear energy facility.
Russia is pathetic as a global power. It talks a good story and keeps floating missiles in submarines in the world. With all this abandoned authority by Russia with what was once their allies, now the USA is suppose to land in Iraq and Syria and take over the land so everyone can live happily ever after. I don't think so.
The world is a huge place and the USA needs to end its policing. If having the USA in every corner of the world was and is the strategy of American generals, they should know by now it is a huge failure.

Jordan's Islamic affairs minister (click here) urges international community to force Israel to 'end the blockade' of Mount, closed after terror attack....
...Jordan on Thursday accused Israel of "state terrorism" after it closed Jerusalem's Temple Mount to Muslim and Jewish visitors alike, following the attempted assassination of a prominent Jewish rights activist.
Israel said its closure of the site - the holiest in Judaism and also home to the Al Aqsa mosque compound - was temporary and aimed at calming tempers as tensions continue to simmer after the prime suspect in the shooting of Rabbi Yehuda Glick died in a shootout with police.
Jordan's Islamic affairs minister, Hayel Daoud, denounced the Jewish state for "closing the gates of Al-Aqsa mosque and preventing the faithful from entering", state news agency Petra reported.
He urged the international community to help Jordan put pressure on Israel "to raise the terrorist blockade" imposed on the compound....
