Obastard is a muslime (symp at the least), so he gets it. Most don’t.
What happens is we kill for muslimes, proving our superior warfighting skills. The fact that we are helping them bring NO gratitude in their “honor” based culture. Instead, it is actually an insult because it show their weakness. They then hate us for it.
Too few people have even a clue about the difference between a guilt (Judeau/Chistine) based cultural worldview - where help is received with thanks - and an “honor” (muslime) based worldview - where help is seen as a subjugation and/or humiliation.
The result: Our help to the “rebels” will just make them hate us more just as soon as this fight is done.
The saving grace? Obastard is so incompetent that this fight won’t be done for quite a while. And I’m OK with that just as long as we don’t have boots on the ground...
