Why Obama Prioritizes Ousting Assad Over Defeating Syria’s Jihadists
(small part)
In a blunder reeking of the fallout caused by supplying Stinger anti-aircraft missiles to 1980s mujahideen in Afghanistan, civilian airline passengers are now under threat from Syrian jihadists armed with portable surface-to-air missiles (MANPADS).
Reports say some American-backed jihadi groups are being equipped with US-made MANPADS. Indications are they’re obtaining these advanced weapons either directly or indirectly from the US or its Mideast allies in connection with a recent escalation in the fighting in Syria.
On April 2, fighting broke out between western-backed al-Qaeda affiliates and the Syrian army, ending the Syrian ceasefire. The groups that broke the ceasefire included al-Qaeda in Syria (al-Nusra), the Chinese Uyghur Turkistan Islamic Party (TIP), The Levant Brigade, the Freemen of Syria (Ahrar al-Sham), Division 13, and other jihadi groups. According to AP, the US-trained and armed Division 13 is now fighting alongside al-Nusra and Ahrar al-Sham. The latter two are part of the Turkey/Saudi/Qatar-backed Army of Conquest.[1]

Peacekeeping stopped being peacekeeping when the UN got in on the Balkan War. The word itself is benign when there is no peace to keep.
I guess you haven't noticed but it's a pyramid scheme. Dose t matter how fast the pyramid is free falling. The ones at the top stay on top. My guess is as long as the states has the best military, we won't see much change in our reality.
The USA no longer has military superiority
