There are no right answers in Syria

Assad should've been deposed when we had the chance, but now ISIS would fill the power vacuum too quickly


There may be no right answers, but I think we've tried just about every wrong one. In general, I'm not sure why we're bothering to get involved at all. We refused to step in during genocides, yet now we're entangling ourselves in a mess where our efforts can only make things worse.

She may have called for a no-fly zone, but that obviously doesn't mean she would support shooting down Russian aircraft if they tried to enter the zone.


That's pretty much how no-fly zones work. If there's no enforcement mechanism, then a rule or law really doesn't exist.


And so her idea of a no-fly zone might just be unworkable. Or else she'd work out a diplomatic resolution with the Russians so they stay out of the no-fly zone.

But there is literally no chance that she would threaten to shoot down Russian planes if they defied the no-fly zone.
