“Not the same thing at all. No one is launching armed drones or firing missiles at Iran from Syria’s territory.”

No one from Syria ever attacked the United States yet that hasn’t stopped the USA from waging a war against Syria to advance a gas pipeline from Qatar to Europe.

Regardless of opinions on what each country is pursuing in Syria it is inarguable that they are each advancing their own interests.

None of them give a crap about Syria. It’s just a pawn.

By your logic, no Afghan attacked the US on 9/11, so we must have been after something else when we invaded and occupied the country. In reality, Syria was involved in the deaths of 200+ Marine peacekeepers in Lebanon, the harboring and sponsorship of terrorist movements (DFLP, PFLP, PLO, et al) that killed dozens of Americans and the sponsorship of terrorists in Iraq that killed thousands of GI’s. We are justified in our intervention up to the point of the removal of the Assad clan from power.
