    All of those people didn't co-exist in fact were belligerents in the civil war that erupted.

    If the US coalition were serious about defeating ISIS , they would have done it quickly .
    There wasn't a US coalition until we and that coalition finally coordinated to get overtly involved on the ground in Iraq and Syria against the Islamic State...and that didn't occur until November of 2015.


    Russia took a few weeks to turn the whole war around in favor of Assad.
    No, Russia had been moving into Syria for some time. They had secured oil exploration deals in the Med off the Syrian cost and have been protecting those assets with permanent military bases….an air base in Hmeimim and a naval base in Tartous.

    "On 30 September, Russia's parliament approved a request by President Vladimir Putin to launch air strikes in Syria. Within hours, the country's first intervention in the Middle East in decades began. "........"But the US and its allies noted that the strikes took place where IS had little or no presence. They instead appeared to be aimed at rebels backed by Gulf Arab and Western states who are advancing on Latakia province - the coastal heartland of Mr Assad's Alawite sect. At least one group that has been armed and trained by the CIA was hit, US officials said"........................https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-34416519.

    Syria was never a "civil war" nor was it about spreading democracy to the people of Syria......it was just another opportunistic attempted regime change operation , to get the pipeline built through Iraq Syria and through to Europe , to supply them with oil and gas from the gulf states . This is why USneocons oppose the Nordstream2 gas pipeline = because its rubs salt into the wound of a US failure in Syria.
