That may or may not be so.
Either way, we need to up our defense AT HOME and restrict immigration from certain parts of the world. We also keep a strong navy in the region. But there is no way in hell we should be giving arms or money or training (not to mention g-d “nation building” and “democracy”).
There is a lot we can do to counter terrorism on our own soil without going over there and giving Muslims billions of dollars and arms and training and everything else they ask for.
Ummm ... I haven’t heard anyone say anything about nation-building for ISIS ... LOL ...
