A year ago we were calling for Assads overthrow, now we are fighting his enemies. We helped Libyan rebels get rid of Qadaffi, less than a year later they attacked and killed our diplomats. A few years ago we were fighting Shiite militias in Iraq, now we are defending the Shiites against ISIS. This is after we fought to depose Saddam, whom we supported in the Iran-Iraq War. And lets not forget that the mujahedeen who eventually became the Taliban were Reagans proxies against the Soviet Union. Taking sides in the Middle East is a losing proposition all around; lets stick with our one faithful ally (Israel) and let the others fight it out among themselves. Enough already.
