Maybe Friedman Gets It

The New York Times' Tom Friedman writes about what it will take to get stability in Syria, and more or less concludes it isn't possible:
So let’s do something new: think two steps ahead. Before we start sending guns to more people, let’s ask ourselves for what exact ends we want those guns used and what else would be required of them and us to realize those ends?
I hope that means Friedman knows the people living in Syria don't want to be one nation and the people living in the U.S. have given up on nation building.
