Mind you, the Chinese could still veto this. The Russians are apparently considering letting this pass. This way the Russians can happily keep selling weapons to the Syrians until the whole deal falls apart again after Assad stockpiles enough arms.

In order for this to work, you'd literally have to shut down all avenues for Syria to get supplies and ammunition. you'd have to blockade the nation. How do you think China and Russia would feel if you started turning back planes, ships and trucks from heading over the border with Soviet or Chinese based supplies?
