BEIRUT (AP) — As fears grow in the West that Syrian President Bashar Assad will unleash chemical weapons as an act of desperation, NATO moved forward Thursday with its plan to place Patriot missiles and troops along Syria's border with Turkey to protect against potential attacks.

But its limited scope also reflects the low appetite in Western capitals for direct military intervention in the civil war.

Something tells me that scope won't stay limited forever.
