You are reading too many conspiracy blogs.

< What happens if we bomb Syria?>
1. Iran will most certainly retaliate against Israel.
2. Turkey and Jordan will be forced to choose sides based on their UN bases.
3. Russia may not have boots on the ground, so to speak, but they will supply arms, equipment, training and intelligence to Assad.
4. Most of the muslim world will throw in against us based on principle
5. European countries will be dragged into it eventually.
6. Russia said that it would counter with an attack on Saudi Arabia>

1. Iran did nothing when we invaded Afghanistan on their eastern border, and Iraq on their western border.
2. What UN bases? The UN runs refugee camps, and the U.S. has military bases in Turkey.
3. Yes, Russia has been supplying weapons to Syria's government for 50 years. They will keep doing so. They didn't do anything when Syria was being defeated by Israel in the 1967 and 1973 wars.
4. All the Muslim world didn't do anything when we invaded Iraq or Afghanistan, and hasn't been doing anything while we regularly do drone strikes in Pakistan and Yemen. They can be counted on to continue doing nothing.
5. All the European countries except France have said they will no nothing. Even France hasn't promised anything other than diplomatic support.
6. Do you have a link to that, or did you just make it up?
