American has various intelligence and war-fighting departments funding groups in Syria which fight each other. With America funding both sides of the conflict, a logical question is to wonder if this is to foment trouble and help weapons manufacturers sell more products.
Non-American newspapers are willing to call out
Obama for constant war-fighting.
If anywhere can show the consequences of American foreign policy under
President Barack Obama, it may be the small town of Marea, north of
Aleppo.
...
Analysts – and many American diplomats who have left the administration,
some in disgust – say that the mess is a consequence of President
Obama’s decision to support the rebellion against President Bashar
al-Assad, but only half-heartedly.
...
Then he also decided to support the Kurds.
He wanted them to fight Isil, which they did, but they also took on
anyone else who stood in the way of a Kurdish mini-state in northern
Syria, and that now means rebel areas like Marea, north of Aleppo, which
is between that mini-state’s western and eastern halves.
As a result, the town is being fought over by two western proxies.
