police force, how would you punish assad?

I thought about this a bit last night. Who will do it? Egypt, jordan, saudi arabia?

I know, the UfN. They can debate this intellectually for several months and then probably do nothing. Or condemn israel for ... something.

If the UfN does do something, what... a resolution condemning the gas attack on children? And a letter of reprimand in assad's personnel file?

Do we have an obligation as the last best hope of planet earth to do ANYTHING to punish them? And if they only respect force and have no respect for the "obama way," what should be done?

Please explain why this message is being reported.
