Exactly !
Country A working to foment a revolution in country B...
Well, if it’s a righteous revolution, that’s a good thing. Resisting tryanny, overthrowing the tyrant, establishing a government that rules righteously. Sounds good.
But if the revolution is made up of a bunch of thieves, murderers, etc., that’s not a good thing.
Seems like today the American and European general public is being asked - by the news media - to believe that every revolution is a good thing, without regards to the details or the truth, and that every revolution merits outside participation and the cost of our blood and treasure.
The messed up part is if they hadn't let themselves get disarmed in the first place, they'd have already killed the sumbitch.
If that's all they were, I'd be neutral, at worst. But Sunnis really want to kill us to the last man, woman and child. As far as I'm concerned, any enemy of the Sunnis (90% of the Muslim world) is someone we shouldn't fight as long as all he's doing is killing Sunnis and not attacking us. When was the last time you heard of an Alawite (Assad's religion) terrorist killing American civilians out of the blue? Assad's actions in repressing the Sunni uprising doesn't affect American interests except in a positive way, given that a reduction in the Sunni population represents a necessary culling of an ideology that simply will not rest until we are all enslaved or dead.
