Not so easy to claim when uncle sugar is providing intelligence training subsistence salaries and arms to ISIS
Just last week there were odd reports of a US special,forces mission to extract someone from this location - we seem to have “ advisors’ in the most strategic locations to help ISIS ... You think US bombing of the power stations, water treatment plants and escape routes is accidental?
You can’t call families whose sons husbands and children are being beheaded enslaved raped and crucified by a ruthless externally supported barbarian force “cowards” unless you have walked the walk
I doubt if we are hearing much about individual acts of courage and valor among the population and their national army
The entire ISIS “army” is about 25,000. And its scattered all across Syria.
We are on the wrong side there. But yes, cowardice is rife in the Arab world. It just is. A million of them walking into Europe is exhibit A. And the arabs have a tactic of talk big, negotiate, and withdraw. Their military traditions, and traditions of individual self defense are very weak.
