placed him/her under our humanitarian bombs in your own country.

Not to mention, Ezra Klein is wrong. But then he often is. He is attempting to shift the blame for more deaths once we start the 90 bombing campaign to someone else. Assad has every reason NOT to kill Syrians who now support him by over 70% of the population.

WE KILLED hundreds of thousands of Iraqis with our bombs, starting on the first 'glorious day'. Soldiers told us later that they just killed anything that was moving after a while because they could not tell who was who.

The first victim whose photo went around the world, was the little boy named Ali who lost his arms and legs, his pregnant mother, his father and his siblings who were in their OWN apartment.

Klein does this, sits on the fence to protect himself from criticism from all sides, but generally ends up being criticized by all sides for his muddled reasoning.
