Watching Syrian violence while thinking



Canada's Middle East policy

"Canada is watching violence in Syria but stepping in would require more thought and possibly a UN resolution, Defence Minister Peter MacKay says." [emphasis added]

Given the disastrous success of UN Security Council Resolution 1973, the chances of getting any new resolution through the Security Council for further military intervention would seem to be zero. As for "more thought" - Mackay?
