35. A popular revolt supported by 1000s of foreign jihadis?

Just like the popular revolt in Libya supported by nine months of foreign air strikes and outside special forces?

It's all fun and games when it involves faraway countries, but the chaos is getting closer and closer to home.

Europe is being overwhelmed by migrants, and they'll be coming to America's shores too soon.

I would be all for it if it really was to spread democracy, but (whatever the stated intention) that isn't result.

Instead we're literally seeing religious extremism expand exponentially before our very eyes.
