US troops to Syria

[Belsnickel]

So the idea that the Syrian civil war is religious v. secular is bollocks. The opposition forces are comprised of groups both secular and religious, including Kurdish units. It all started because of Assad's extreme (torture, imprisonment, murder) of people speaking out against his regime during the Arab Spring. His regime is like the Hussein regime. Same party, same ideology, same temperament. We should not be involved in taking him out, just as we should not have been in Iraq. But why people stand with Assad that disliked Hussein, I do not know.
