The S-300 is a powerful system indeed, however;
a. It takes at least few months to get it and its team to a fully operational stage e.g training, checking the systems, practice, etc...
b. It would be manned by Syrian soldiers and officers - from personal experience & knowledge of the capabilities of the Arab personnel - I doubt that when needed they would be able to provide an adequate and professional response.
c. These systems would be one of the first targets in any operation conducted by the US navy/air-force, there are simply too few of them to produce any meaningful result against the US forces (It might have been a different story if it was the Israeli, French or British air-force/navy though)
Frankly, I can try and guess what will happen next, simply from analyzing the general info I get from various open and closed sources... but at this point it seems that few world players already decided that al-Assad must go - and it will happen sooner or later.
But most importantly Syria and the ME as we knew them up until 2 -3 years ago, is no more.
