the liechtenstein / gibraltar army of syria

by removed.polaroid-scrabble

when a nation implodes into a civil war, it is heresy for other nations to intervene, i didn’t hear of the french intervention in the english civil war... or a german intervention in the french civil war... hitler didn’t invade spain, and no african nation intervened in the american civil war... or mongolia invading russia via siberia to save the tsar... but i guess the concept of                           globalisation changed all that, when western nations forgot that they have professional armies... while syria          has a liechtenstein / gibraltar army equivalent... former postmen, cooks, bakers butchers and lawyers turned professional “footballers;” i can draw you a dairy cow in crayons if you like, oozing blood: if this view is too complex to digest - they do it with passion...                 your soldiers do it for a paycheque, get it?
