Regardless of an agenda of the US, or your feelings concerning the US, there is no doubt in my mind that the government of Syria has and is currently perpetrating atrocities against its own people in the form of rape, pillaging, torture, murder, etc. It is a sad day indeed when the direction that lines run on a map are used to justify that it's okay to allow a government to systematically kill innocent men, women, and children.

The brutalization of innocent people should be everyone's business.

What's the evidence for such claims? Accusations or rape is just ridiculous delirium that the West throws at any army they did not like, starting from the Goebbels accusations against the Red Army. There is no basis to believe that any army ever commited any large-scale rape against even foreign people not to say own people. Rape is a very often accusation because it is impossible to disprove: you do not need a heap of bodies to throw rape accusations.

It is quite evident that Syria is putting down an armed rebellion supplied from abroad.
Syrian army cleanses the Damascus neighbourhood.
