OK. But please do understand that when I say that the Turks and Saudis backed them, in that mix is our State Department I believe. See Benghazi. So, the only panic on the part of our government is at the bad PR. Otherwise, ISIS is doing what its supposed to do which is drive a wedge between Iran and Syria, and ultimately to close Iran’s window on the Mediterranean.
If it weren’t for the highly public head-chopping, no one would say boo. Well, a bit of public hand wringing, but that would be the end of it. Just my view.
I agree. I just don’t see why we should get involved ... until the people of the region show some backbone first.
And even then we should not do it for free.
