Watching the tube about the doings in Syria over the weekend….the shelling and the killing of children and women is just atrocious….there is NO accuse for this type of terror against a civilians population….ANY civilian population…..
Anyway watching the media pundits rattle on and on about the incidents and then some political types and their surrogates that have to weigh into the fray….got me to thinking……I heard on MSNBC morning celeb say that it was horrible (and it is) and that it was not a game to be played….that the Pres needs to act and act now…….
I hate to inform all these well meaning people but it is a GAME….it is cleverly named…..the Game Theory…….this theory simply put is…..Game Theory is a way of looking at human interaction that sees it as a series of strategically motivated decisions. These are described as different ‘games’, or imaginary situations which echo the strategic options involved in political decision making. Analysts of International Relations have made particular use of these models.
I hate to break it to Washington and the do nothings that control it….but the Middle East is a game of Risk…….only it is played with human lives.
The problem is that the Syrian opposition has stated that they DO NOT want US or Western intervention other than humanitarian aid and weapons….they do NOT want our military intervention! But now we have surrogates and such deciding what the opposition in Syrian wants and they want to give it to them (in more ways than one)……
These people are using the deaths of innocent civilians as a pretense for action…..but what of Israel and its killing of civilians? Where is the difference? Other than money given to surrogates for their support. Chest thumping like some sex crazed gorilla will not solve the problems the area is facing……maybe all pundits should just shut up and let this situation be handled without uninformed interference. Just a thought!
