Yeah I agree. The US inparticular has involved itself in so many conflicts where it wasn't exactly necessary and now when something happens that is actually worth the intervention, they have no trust from citizens (both their own and worldwide), and have spread themselves too thin militarily.
If there's going to be an outside intervention, it might have to be done without much US involvment. Which means it would take the cooperation of a decent amount of other nations.
