Arab leaders call for Syrian intervention - by someone else. September 1, 2013 9:14 pm bowser

I have to admit I don’t understand this at all.   Those nations have armies, some of them navies, all of them air forces, and this is in their own front and back yards.  Is there some reason they can’t take care of this themselves?  How do they justify having American or European kids lose their lives over an issue of no concern to America or Europe?

‘President Barack Obama’s surprise move to seek congressional authorization before ordering any military action against the Syrian regime was met with a mixed reception around the world Sunday, with a chorus of Arab states calling for intervention — while a key Syrian government official disparaged the White House for a lack of leadership.

“At an Arab League meeting in Cairo on Sunday evening, foreign ministers passed a resolution pressing the United Nations and the global community to “take the deterrent and necessary measures against the culprits of this crime that the Syrian regime bears responsibility for,” according to Reuters.”
