Toll yall when it comes to matters military the new boss is the same as the old boss.
But make no mistake this is another example of quid pro quo U.S. doing another country's dirty work under threat of 'regional conflagration'.

I wonder if anybody in the State Dept has read The Arab Mind.
The history of the last few decades suggests they have not.

This war is all about :
1-Isreail securing the area and making sure Syria does not get any advance military hardware
2-Stop the supply of military hardware in/out of Lebanon
3-Stop Iranians hands from supplying Hezbollah in case Israeli plan to attack Iran
4- take over Syrian little oil supply
5-Stop Russian from having access to military bases in area
6-Securing an oil line from Saudi Arabia to Europe
7-Stopping Iranian from running similar oil line from Iran via Iraq to Europe by by-passing Persian gulf current shipping methods
8-And bunch of other middle eastern sh#t too complicated for you guys to understand
Do not forget that Turkey is next

When I ask my Christian Syrian friends which faction I should put my money
on they just laugh. They have zero faith in the US's ability to do anything meaningful.
