You've never in all your time taken a breath to explore whatever my view may be, and it doesn't matter what my view is in the first place.
I'm pointing out that the same means of controlling the middle east that have always worked continue to work today. It hardly matters who's employing them at a given moment in time because they operate on something that the target does to itself. Just as raiders took over the middle east centuries before the US was formed despite being outnumbered by total opposition forces, their descendants do the same, domestically, to their own populace. The regime that controls your country could not suppress all resistance simultaneously so it seeks to spread that resistance into ideologically opposed camps. As that numerically greater resistance is spread into multiple sub-divided portions the relative size of the smaller regime forces reaches or exceeds parity with any given subdivision of resistance.
You're marching to the sound of your enemies drum, and making enemies of friends. Historically, that's been a losing strategy. Appealing to western humanitarian values isn't going to save you from a middle eastern despot...and the only people who will hear that plea are we westerners..ourselves, and pro-west resistance that you would not include amongst your own. You've managed to make yourselves smaller than your opposition, squandering whatever numerical advantage you possess and burning the only people who give a shit about what you're saying.
So, again, good luck with that.
