Why are we “training” (read arming) so-called “rebels”?
It is more than a fiasco.
So stupid, so stupid.
Do NONE of these people in government read history? Do they not know what happens when you get involved in factional warfare? Did they not read the history of WWI even when the Germans and British and Russians were fighting a proxy war using ME fighters (or so they thought) but the fighters were fighting for their own causes and vendettas?
And this has been going on for OVER ONE THOUSAND YEARS in the Middle East ... probably longer.
Honestly, it is like we have pre-schooler’s running the government and military.
We are also enabling Turkey to wipe out the Kurds, once and for all, or at least weaken them for ISIS. What a travesty!
