This may be the unimagined circumstance of America just not leading the charge to intervention, throws up hands and turns to other pressing issues. Like rebuilding a spent ground force in a sequester. For the first time in a long time the thinking just might be this.

“There is nothing we can do to fix this, so we do nothing.” Nothing meaning in a major military sense. Not intended to include diplomacy, green lighting other nations efforts or sending money hither and yon. All of which will happen.

If we do anything, it will be cheap and easy, ordnance from over the horizon. Not a good week to be planning a wedding in Aleppo.
