The anarcho-syndicalists prepare to fight for their lives.

I'll say this, though. I bet you wouldn't have historians and psychologists and law school students and other people with a political correctness agenda insisting that those victims, who weren't "hurt that badly" are collectively guilty and normalizing what those monsters did en masse like you do in other areas.

So what is anarcho-syndicalism supposed to refer to anyways?

Obama didn't create ISIS. It was Reagan that did by giving support to them and having them trained to fight "Godless Communist" and then Bush Sr. angered them by sending troops to Persian Gulf. It's totally USA's own fault that ISIS become as powerful as they are.

If giving aid to muslims fighting Soviet soldiers in one country made the U.S. responsible for all Islamic terrorism everywhere, it's a good thing we're getting out of Syria. If we stayed there any longer we might end up responsible for petty crime and poor hand-washing too.

I thought that was Osama and Al Qaeda.

For some reason clearspira was blaming Obama from it.

From what I've heard, Obama's softening of US presence in the middle east led to the growth of ISIS through exploitation of Iraq and Syria (and Lebanon or Libya or something).

People don't necessarily blame Obama (though Trump obviously made a big deal of it), but concur that that explains the uprising of ISIS/ISIL

The agreement to withdraw from Iraq was signed and given a specific date by Dubya. Obama's options were 1) withdraw as agreed, 2) submit to Iraqi demands that US troops be subject to Iraqi law, or 3) overthrow the iraqi government.

Not just in one country but in middle east as well. ISIS would had never become as powerful as it is without help from USA and it's secret services. Also ironic that USA is allied with country that supports ISIS but is hostile towards country that could possible been ally. All because of oil.

So, again, we should definitely not help Muslims,lest we become responsible for what they do later. And I thought I wouldn't learn anything today! I figure the countries are Saudi Arabia and Iran, respectively? Because Iran has never been tied to terrorism and has no oil?

Wouldn't that make what Trump said kinda dubious?

Anarcho-Syndicalism is the ideology that strong trade unions can and should overthrow the state and establish an Anarchist society. I'm not sure what this has to do with Syria- maybe some of the anti-Assad / anti-ISIS crew are this?- but that's the definition.

Ronald Reagan did not create ISIS. One, ISIS is from Iraq and Syria (it's in the name, guys), and the Reagan government funded the Mujahideen in Afghanistan; and two, the Mujahideen were a bunch of different groups fighting the USSR, and if you are thinking of the Taliban those were created by Pakistan in 1994 to fight AGAINST the Mujahideen and establish a pro-Pakistani government in Afghanistan.
