I calculating the 36 countries and 48 interventions of US by including only direct involvement of armed forces in foreign territory or explicit threat of imminent major armed attack on foreign territory.
So it is. Giving suffisticated weapons and training to a side in a conflict is not doing nothing. Technicaly speaking, there has already been military intervention in Syria. And I dont mean the Iranian revolutionary guard marching through the country nore the Hezbollah militias. But wapons financed by Saudi assholes and comunications equiptment given by the West.
