Supporting pro-democracy forces against a brutal regime and its Russian Allie’s shouldn’t have happened? The people of Syria demanded regime change and weren’t getting it. To say the U.S. was responsible is irresponsible at best.

The Civil War and the rise of ISIS was the direct result of Assad’s war crimes and the Russians refusal to abide by international agreements to focus on ISIS. All the while, the US could do little because Syria was a Russian ally and Russia has nukes.
