Why do we want to be a part of forming a new Sunni army creating a new Sunni nation?

Why are we backing Sunnis now?
Saddam Hussein and his Bathists Party were Sunnis. He already had a trained Sunni army and a Sunni government.
Palestinians are Sunnis Why not train them and put them in charge if we want Sunnis in control?
ISIS is Sunni. If we support a Sunni army then why not let ISIS run things?

WTH ????

I’m sorry, I just do not understand why it is in our interest to back either Sunnis or Shias in this religious civil war.

The Gulf States, those that gave Obama the finger, our allies.

Think Egypt and longer than a ninety day horizon. The area in question is traditionally Sunni and wad torn asunder into Iraq and Syria. The point of all this is to return that condition.

As a secondary objective, Assad, like Saddam, will be gone
