Spud,
I will fault Obama for supporting the ISIS in Syria but opposing them in Iraq.

It amazed me how they tried to rebrand these intolerant murderous A-holes as
freedom fighters when these dogs of war became useful tools again in Syria.
From Al-Qaida our immortal enemies to “freedom fighters” just like that, given
the old Madison Avenue makeover.
The cynicism of the power knows no bounds and has no decency at all in its old
vampire bones.
It's called realpolitik. Do you want the President to choose who to support
based on their morality and disregard the national interest? And how would you
measure their morality? Maybe the real plan is to keep any one murderous
faction from winning so they keep fighting till they've all killed each other.
No doubt that is the plan to balkanize the Middle East and propel it into
bloody ethnic and sectarian tribalism; wonder about the blowback though. War
breeds monsters – it really does; this stuff will not be so easily contained as
some may believe.
And it really also depends on a clear statement of what is truly in our
national interest versus certain sectors private interests. Can we continue to
afford the trillions of dollars that our nation has been bleeding when our
infrastructure is collapsing and our children keep falling further and further
behind? What is really in the interest of America should be building a strong
and prosperous America – first and foremost.
>> And how would you measure their morality?
Morality is a tricky subject for sure, but the degree of murderous intolerance
of those Wahabi/Salafi dogs of war qualifies them for the docket in a war
crimes court of law.
The world should get some isolated piece of desert somewhere and set it aside
for all the various crusaders, jihadists and so forth to go have it at each
other – with clubs, knives and chains. It would be a form of beneficial
Darwinism, and help the survival of our species to have the dogs of war kill
each other off utilizing primitive weapons that would not do collateral harm.
As a teenager I lived and witnessed the reality of what war does to people..
and lived through the total collapse of a country; that experience has marked
my life and evolution as a person. I am opposed to war; it should remain a last
resort option. Almost always, in almost all circumstances there exist better
ways of achieving acceptable outcomes.
