I agree. Syria has nothing to gain, and everything to lose by involvement. Currently, they will only lose a guerilla army, and one that does not, technically, belong to them. The Syrian army has no chance of victory against the Israelis, especially with the US providing them with smart weapon technology. They just want to be heard, and avoid significant troubles.
