Research focuses on the concept of human Intervention and its virtues and vices. The contemporary idea of humanitarian intervention is entirely based on the “right intention” criterion, which is a requirement of disinterestedness or selflessness of the intervening state. But as theory of realism and history tell us, states are never totally disinterested. The question now arises that what should be the level of selflessness and disinterestedness shown by various state nations. Paper will discuss whether a human Intervention is a deed of selflessness or a strategic plan to achieve profitable or egoistic motives. Taking in account the current happenings in International Relations, Syria is taken as a case analysis for this paper. Syria is suffering from a civil war and has created a lot of buzz among various states, who are taking their stands in the civil war. A comparison will be drawn between present situations in Syria to various previous efforts of Humanitarian Intervention with a large focus on NATOs Intervention in Balkan region (Kosovo).In conclusion various future possible outcome of Humanitarian Intervention in Syria will be discussed in detail.
