The cost of
intervention in Syria
may be high now, but the price will only increase for all nations if civilian
massacres continue unabated. Currently, Syria
looks eerily similar to Bosnia
in the early 1990s. When the world did not act to end the slaughter of Muslims
there, jihadists moved in to join the fight, and they sought to convince the
otherwise staunchly secular-minded Bosnian Muslims that the world had abandoned
them and that they were better off with jihadists. In Bosnia , the
international community intervened before it was too late. If Syria
radicalizes, becoming a jihadist safe haven, it could become a Sisyphean task
to normalize it. Afghanistan
is a case in point.
Immense innocence people suffer; oil prices
will be sky rocketing, recovery economy fragile… why so
many innocence people suffer from one terrorist despot keep the power?
