Trading with Syria

Follow the money. We should remember that a Syrian attempt to build a nuclear weapons plant was recently destroyed by the Israelis. If we trade with Syria, a rogue state, if there ever was one, like with the financial aid delivered to Gaza, the profits will be used for a military buildup, not for infrastructure and enhancing the lives of ordinary Syrians. Trading with Syria will give their autocratic rulers more funds to suppress their people and actively wage war, through Hamas and Hisbullah, against the West. Is that really what we want?
