Everyone complains that whatever good we did in Iraq has been completely undone by ISIS.
Does anyone think that ISIS just floated into Iraq from the outside? Of course not. It is the same people we helped, who went turncoat on us, and now they're all killing eachother.
HOW IS THAT A PROBLEM?
Is anyone REALLY disappointed that al-Assad and ISIS are massacring eachother?
It sounds like chrismas to me.
Here's a question that seems stunningly absent from everyone complaining about ISIS:
Who stands to gain the most from our aggressive response to these executions? I'm not saying its a certainty that ISIS' enemies are executing in the name of their enemies, but has anyone else noticed that the question seems glaringly absent from every conversation?
You would think someone would at least ask the question.
