No the USA is the main enemy of jihadists all over the world both Sunni and Shiite.

“No the USA is the main enemy of jihadists all over the world both Sunni and Shiite.”

So? The US sees strategic interests in supporting(and propping up) Sunni Jihadists all over the world. As I type right now, both Republicans and Democrats want to arm Sunni Jihadists in Syria. In the 80s, they certainly were supporting the Sunni Jihadists against the commies.

Au contraire. The US is the prime financial backer of all sorts of Jihad. So long as we send aid money, arms, and oil money to any Moslem country we are financing and arming jihadists. The USA does more of all of that than all the rest of the world combined. And we directly support Jihad in some parts of the world by choosing which jihadists to support in various internecine conflicts.
