The "This doesn't affect us" argument is weak

10. I don't see any good coming out of limited strikes on Syria.

I think there are a number of motivations our own country has to take down the Syrian leadership including starting a war with Iran.

How come it isn't our business when each and every year over 40,000 Americans die from lack of access to medical care because they do not have health insurance? Are these Americans any less dead the Syrians that were gassed? Do you think their deaths were any less painful? Isn't is morally vacant that these lives are not being defended here at home?

Isn't it an atrocity when tens of thousands of America lives are lost each year, most of those lives being those of children? What could be more callous and weak? I think we need to look within our own hearts, and get our own country in order before we can get on any kind of moral high horse and start throwing "limited" bombs around in a country we have no business in.
