That's the thing though isn't it, we support them now like the Americans did with the Taliban against Russia and what happens in 5-10-20 years? I'm surprised the French haven't sent in the foreign legion already tbh, this is exactly the sort of terrain and fight that they are trained for and they have history of fighting in Syria before now.
In my opinion Saddam should have been left alone, it was the void left behind by his going that allowed this crowd to come in and take over. He was undoubtedly a maniac who did what he wanted but how much safer did we all feel when he was in charge
