ISIS-affiliated rebels toppling the most brutal dictator in all of Middle East, ending a 12 year old civil war in Syria, or Syria’s Assad receiving asylum in Russia, or Israel destroying his army, or Iran propping up Assad’s regime for the twelve years of brutal civil war in Syria, with hundreds of thousands civilian casualties and nearly a million Syrians fleeing the country.

You said no such thing. Not a single word of it. And that’s a shame.

The only thing that you managed to take out of these devastating events that involve many diverse parties in a regional geo-political struggle is the usual: a couple of trigger words to get riled about.

BLUCHER!… I mean GENOCIDE! ETHNIC CLEANSING! ISRAEL!

As predictable as it is pathetic.
