Where's the profit in that?

I hear ya. We tend to think about war in monetary terms. These factions are fighting over ideology/religion. They will use our weapons but we will never have much control in terms of stability the ME. They don't give a damn about democracy or "equality". Turkey and perhaps the Kurds probably come the closest.

I do support humanitarian efforts to protect innocent lives. ISIS is a ruthless bunch.

Who cares?

Seriously, the fact that Americans give a second thought to maniacs fighting EACH OTHER!!!!! halfway around the globe is absolutely astounding.

It truly is frightening how easily the average dumbed-down narcissistic American is today. Those people scare me a bajillion times more than any Muslim.

Who in their right mind thought they would? Oh, that's right, dumbed-down narcissistic Americans who actually believed we went over there for.....wait for it....Nation Building!!!

It truly is disgusting how people of this country allow it to be manipulated and used solely for profit.

A good start might be to stop creating, training and funding such groups.
