Okay, I agree. Not unless they are forced out.
Just what we need over there, another nation whose government answers to an Ayatolah, and hates the U.S.
That’s what we’d wind up with.
Say what you want about the lackluster leadership in Iraq, it wasn’t blustering about attacking the United States every fifteen minutes.
It wasn’t seeking nukes to use against the West.
And if ISIS wins, we get another government that answers to a different murderous mullah and hates the U.S. Either way, we lose.
So why should we be involved in a situation in which we lose either way? The only way to “win” is to make sure their fight drags out for a long time.
If Iran gets too strong, new terrorists will swarm in to support ISIS.
