Politics. Unscrupulous and stupid.

Israel will celebrate this.

S-300 still set to be delivered.

This sting in NATO's flank and Israel's front will hurt us long since after Assad is gone.

This delivery of missiles oversteps a line, imo, although Mr. Redline in the White House probably has much much longer and wordfull description for it. I also tend to think that it is essential to throw the Russians out there.

Therefore I start to think that although a ground intervention is out of question for me, at least a massive air campaign should be run - especially targetting those missiles, chemicals, and any assembly areas for the incoming transports of S-300.

This is not to help the fundamentalists. It is to prevent having to deal with fundamentalists with modern missiles in the future. Better a badly equipped fundamentalist Syrian regime in the future, than a well-armed fundamentalist regime in the future. - Those anti-ship-missile's range can cover half of the Israeli coast when stationed at southern Syria. Will also have an effect on attempts of the Israeli navy to intercept transports at sea that are suspicious.
