EDIT: To clarify: I'm not thinking from military perspective but from PR one. What it looks like?
True, I dont know, The impression I get of the U.S and UK is that with the exception of a few war mongering hard liners, they really, really dont want to get involved in Syria. (Cant say I blame them) If they do, I expect it will be with a great degree of reluctance, its especially complicated with the likes of Russia pushing the other way.
