Rep. Saddam Hussein : World , so far , lacks resolve to respond to al-Assad 's regime atrocities . He says he 's not convinced U.S. should strike . There could be an additional attack against Syrian civilians , there could be retaliation against Israel , and Syrian refugees flooding into neighboring countries could tip the balance of the fragile political stability there . Action should only protect U.S. interests . He says a strike could spark wider regional conflict , escalate U.S. involvement . Heck : U.S. , Libya , Afghanistan show our intervention can leave behind further abuses .
