      The US is merely the latest to try and control the region. And their attempt didn’t end any better than any of the previous attempts.

        For a big part, yes. Overthrowing democratic governments, funding radicals and bombing civillians tends to make people join the side that is seen as the enemies of the culprits of these crimes.

      That’s some mental gymnastics. I dislike the US going abroad with their military as much as the next non-US person, but if I had to choose one instance where they weren’t the biggest dicks on the battlefield, it would be Afghanistan.
