We have no core, essential interests at stake.
Right now there are two sides in Syria - bad and worse. We opposed the bad, so by default we are supporting the worse.

Right now our best path is to kill off the expansionist cancer of ISIS - or to just avoid the whole mess of the Middle East and pump our own oil.
