Just wondering how Americans would feel if they found out Russia, or China, or Iran or Saudi Arabia was supporting American factions such as Soverign Citizens, or Nation of Islam or La Mirada Locos ?
Will there be American invasion in Syria?

We would be pissed and rightfully so. So the people pissed at America for this have every right to be.
If I was a Syrian citizen I'd be pissed, just absolutely livid, at Saudi Arabia. They sent over 1,000 death row inmates to fight in Syria in place of execution.
This thing is so messy and so convoluted that America needs to resist joining either side. Work to save the citizens, the innocents, and resist the rebels and the government.
Are we the rebels or the Soverign Citizens?
They are not always mutually inclusive or exclusive.

Seriously ? I heard talk of prisoners fighting in Syria and assumed it was the escapees from Abu grab. That is just crazy.
Oh yeah. Saudi Arabia also went to Russia and promised them that if Russia abandons Assad than Saudi Arabia will guarante the safety of the Russian olympics that are coming up. Sounds like a threat to me. Russia rejected it, as they should, and basically told Saudi Arabia that if all this blows up that Saudi Arabia will be one of Russia's first targets.
The US intercepted messages from Iran to their sponsored militias in Iraq to hit American interested there. Like the American embassy in Baghdad.
Turkey has moved troops, tanks, aircraft, rocket launchers and anti-air guns to the Syrian border. Germany, America and Denmark have troops (couple hundred each) and patriot missle batteries in Turkey along the Syrian border.
America, France, Russia and China have all moved navy ships to the Syrian coast. Britain has moved air force assets to Cyprus just off the Syrian coast.
Iran and Syria threaten revenge on Israel if Syria is attacked. Isreal has vowed to respond to any aggression, called up reservists, issued gas masks to the populace and repositioned their Iron Dome air defense grid.
Hamas and Hezbollah are on the out and pointing fingers at each other over terrorist attacks (car bombs) over Syria.
America has forces in Jordan along the Syrian border training Jordanian troops to defend from an attack from Syria.
Russia is supplying S300 surface to air missiles to Iran.
It is crazy how convoluted it has gotten and how everyone, dont be fooled into this is only an American/Russian fued, has raised tensions. Syria, Israel, Iran, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, France, China...everyones hands are in this.
If you're for the rebels, you're stoked. If you against the rebels, you're upset, but understand the humanitarian aid. After all, this was just light weapons, communication, vehicles, and medical supplies.
But if your government is using chemical weapons, and you know this beyond a shadow of a doubt, you should be all for outside intervention. It's easy to say I would be against chemical weapons usage even if I'm pro-existing government, as I'm not in that position. I'm pretty sure it'd change my opinion of where I stand, but I don't have to make that decision right now.
No I am not! Haha
But yeah it all depends on which side you support. Syrian citizens are on both sides of that fence.

If you guys ever invade Syria, I advise you to try the baklava in there. It's delicious.
That does it, we're coming in whether they like it or not.

I live pretty close to Syria and have extensive information about what's going on there so hear me out:
1. Around 8-11% of Syrian people support rebels.
2. Most rebels are fundamentalists. Main group named Al-Nusra is a branch of Al-Qaeda. They are even crazier than AQ. One rebel literally ate a soldier's heart and made/published a video of it. They often arbitrarily shoot people of different belief. If they somehow gained the control, millions of people's life would be at stake including 2.1m Christians.
3. The USA and its allies blatantly arm rebels. Assad said: Without the flow of weapons, the insurgency would halt in one week.
Now you decide yourself.

I wonder if there were ever an example of welcomed invasion. Hmm..
