And part of that is due to no one supporting the moderates 18 months ago but almost all revolutions get coopted by the radicals. So, yes, that adds to why the situation is difficult.

Now, as I said, there is this “Army of Conquest”, furthermore, the Al Qaeda branch in Syria, Al Nusra supposedly is at loggerheads with ISIS.

The truth is one would probably be able to find stories that some of their units are defecting as well.

ISIS raided that Palestine refugee camp near Damascus a few weeks ago but they got thrown out by according to the stories, the Palestinians who are fighting against Assad as well.

It’s difficult to know what is really going on there.

I might watch the occasional My little Pony episode but I don’t believe in unicorns. There is no such thing as a moderate muslim, least of all one waging jihad. The enemy of my enemy is my enemy, not my friend, nor my ally.

Only a fool or a liberal would arm or support them them because we have history to guide us. Those weapons are invariably turned against the interests of those so arming/supporting. And the people.
