The article "Civil War in Syria Raises Questions About When to Intervene" by Ja'anai Delaney is about the civil war that is going on in Syria and the US's concern on whether they should intervene or not. The article states that 2.5 million people have been affected by the war whether it’s being forced out of their home or have no food or medicine. According to Hillary Clinton the US Secretary, the US will not get involved unless the Syrian President Bashar al-Assad uses chemical weapons, she states, “a lot of people are trying to figure out what could be an effective intervention that wouldn’t cause more death and suffering.” The US’s involvement in the Syrian war cannot only be dangerous for the citizens of the US but also for Syrians. It can possible start a war which no one wants it would only take lives and cause money so maybe the US should not get involved in the Syrian’s civil war but I do believe they should keep a close eye on the war in case it gets out of control and the citizens of Syria do the help from the US. If it is mandatory that the US does need to get involved it would need to be carefully planed and thought about both long term and short term and hoe it will affect the country emotionally and financially.
