With the participants practically indistinguishable from the air.
With civilians being hard to identify when lots and lots of them are armed and shooting.
This is the perfect mission for the Obama Administration. We keep our hands clean, we don't really get involved, we pass moral judgment on both sides, but we exhibit no understanding at all about how things actually work.
