We also have interest in transnational terror groups operating out of Syria too, Pete. Transnational terror groups like the Islamic State that grew and festered from Caliphate seeking small organization to transnational terror group while you twiddled your f'n thumbs and warped on about the US having no interest in Syria, in fact, as long as it all remained regional, actually made the West safer.
You'll note......there is no f'n body arguing today the ISIS is making anyone safer.
