Theres a lot of questions which i think will catch up on us as a nation how we use american forces. Im not going to go beyond that. Theres a lot of talk about the state. Theres a lot in my head. Im trying to use my academic side. I dont know. Because of the state in the middle east is changing fundamentally, we, when i say we i dont mean the u. S. Alone. Europeans, the west, the mind looks at everything as a state, as a holy grail that you cant touch it, that everything works in that concept. Our International System is based on a conceptual state that we have taken from whether it is from the treaty of that is shifting under our noses fundamentally. Im not saying because of the Islamic State or whatever they want to call it. That is our manifestation. Even the states we look at, is afghanistan a state. I mean, i can go on to a lot of. These states, we still treat them with attributes we either believe that exist or at least thats the only norm we work through. I think one way to look
States can intervene to save lives, we should. A by the same token, the United States doesnt have any particular interests in syria. So the hardheaded realist inside me was saying look, this is going to be a very big problem. Its going to be a big deal. Its not clear to me that we should do so. Would the Syrian Civil War affect other parts of the middle east in such a way that it would begin to affect our interest. I think we got our answer on june 10th. Im not suggesting that problems of iraq are caused by syria. Quite the contrary. Those problems are entirely internal to iraq. There is no gain saying the simple fact that it was a group that abandoned iraq, moved to syria, was able to gestate in syria, rebuild its strength and then reinvade iraq. So that leads me to conclude that yes, the time has come. The United States should be taking a more active role in syria. I actually have a piece in the new Foreign Affairs time that lays out in much greater detail what ive been talking about
