Bomb the shit out of them!

US should also make sure that the new Syria government is pro-Western, so that Russia loses its only foothold in the Middle East.

 

Umm, the IS movement was a large part of the anti-government forces in Syria, bombing the IS forces is helping the Assad regime, not hurting them. Assad is from the Alawite religious sect that is aligned with the shi'ites, whereas ISIL (and the Saudi's) are Sunni, hence their hatred of Assad and the Syrian government. 

 

Yeah but we are aiding the "Good" rebels so eventually Assad is gonna be pushed out by stronger forces.
