funny she has taken this route. I personally think its the ARMING of SYRIAN rebels by US that has lead to this. US made Syrian rebels stronger, which allowed them to expand into Iraq
The US did little to arm the Syrian rebels; the first clips of rebels with US anti-tank weapons didn’t even show up until this spring, and these only in small numbers - in a conflict where everyone has been filming everything. No US anti-aircraft weapon clips has been showing up. It’s fair to say that Obama did nothing to arm the moderates while the islamists took over one town after the next, nearly exterminating the Syrian moderates before pushing into Iraq.
If you wait until you get to the point that you’re having to try to rescue tens of thousands of people on a mountain from being mowed down by genocide-seeking terrorists who’ve gotten to the point that they even have a freaking air force, you’ve been asleep at the wheel.
No, reneging on our deals with Mubarak in Egypt and then Qaddafi in Libya was the beginning of the ISIS onslaught.
Added to regime change in Iraq and the ongoing attempts to overthrow Assad. According to weekend news shows, hillary's "solution" was we should've kept arming good rebels to fight Assad and the bad rebels. The whole concept of picking and choosing which rebels or freedom fighters or protestors or whatever has been an epic fail lieading to chaos everywhere it's been done.
Interesting take on things, since Assad was fighting against the bad rebels until the US tried to topple him.
I wish some DC pol were bold enough to say we should be helping Assad stop the rebels and disintegrate ISIS where ever they are.
