“This may be the straw that broke the camels back in terms of NATO intervention. The brothers Assad may have gone a “bridge too far” on this one.”

Unfortunately, I doubt it.

This morning, the Russians & Iranians are telling us to stay out of it. They are calling for no foreign intervention... Ha - except them, of course.
And it looks like we are going to comply.

Obama/NATO may be looking for a pretext. In Grenada it was the students in peril that finally caused Reagan to jump in. In Panama, the beating of a Naval Officer and the rape of his wife that broke the camels back. In Iraq? WMD. In Libya? The counter-attack by Qadaffi forces east toward Benghazi and the vesting of the city with thoughts of annihilation of it's inhabitants.

Although the murder of 2 (maybe 3) journalists does not rise to the above incidents, we can only wonder what NATO is thinking. France has a long history with Syria. And if Assad gets away with this, will he be embolden to crush all resistance?
