And Assad has made a series of choices ever since then that is literally destroying his country. Three-quarters of his country is displaced. It’s in Jordan, it’s in Lebanon, it’s in Turkey, and in the desert. The threat is that those people in the desert and others could become the next acolytes of ISIL if we don’t find a way to join together to go after ISIL. And if Russia is there alone fighting them, guess what? Russia becomes the target and Russia starts seeing – who knows – MANPADs will find their way in there, airplanes will fall out of the sky. They will become vilified. They’ll become the new magnet, together with Assad, for the jihadis.

Плохо. Вот как можно говорить в общем-то правильные вещи про суннитов и при этом настаивать на таком? Наверное, довольно трудно было бы продать разделение "Сирии" Турции, да и амбиции других местных режимов могут быть этим как-то задеты, но неужели со всем этим труднее справиться, чем пытаться совершить невозможное и помирить "сирийцев"? О путинской авантюре и говорить нечего.
