Syria

There is a problem,
    In a country far away,
  Where no one wants to go.

Ruled by a dictator,
   Whos backed by our.
  Cold Enemy,

   Who's ally,
        Is our greatest foe,
   And supports,
        Hezbollah,

      But its not all,
  Rose pedals,
     The other side,
   Extremists Rebels,

       A power vacuum,
  To ensue,
           As soon as he's ousted,

   We do have allies,
        But they are as weary of war,
      As the American public,

   That's the price,
      We now pay,
     For lying to the Americans,

Fast forward,

   Civil war,
        2 years in the making,
    And a desperate regime,
               Holding a forbidden weapon,

  Our president,
       Draws a line,
    In the sand,

       But lines change,
   As the tide came in,
         And we drew it again,

           However.....

    The unthinkable happens,
 The weapons are allegedly released,
        Worse then last time,
                And the UN is sent in to investigate,

  Shot at,
      The site in question,
       Shelled,
     Scattering the evidence,
        Across the sand

         The UN,
    Is at the mercy of the host country,
      And is mostly ineffective,

            Its what you would expect
                when investigating war crimes,

       Like a mother looking for drugs,
         Letting the child know she's looking,
                  before she looks.

   Diplomacy,
Unfortunately is the UNs weakness,
     And whos right do they have,
   To infringe on a countries sovereignty, 

        But the process is broken,
    And they leave the dirty work,
         For other nations,

        Instead of deploying,
   Bombing,
       Blowing up Syria,
          Like the response America Delivers,

     We need a stronger UN

  A strong investigation arm,
   To obtain accurate,
          Reliable information,

   A humanitarian force,
       To rebuild from the power vacuum,
      and protect innocence,

    A police force,
          To arrest those responsible,
       For war crimes.

   All these issues,
          Must be addressed by the world,
      And not just the United States.

           We are only a small part,
      An ocean away.
