And there is your problem right there. They had seen and heard America and its puppies depose the "Evil regime" in Iraq, and assumed that they would do the same for them.

Which is probably what would have happened if Putin hadn't thrown a spanner in the works.
It's not my problem. It's the Syrians' problem.

And who is to blame for Syrians assuming "America and its puppies" would do something but didn't?
