Nice to see we have a liberal pro-genocide poster here, it's rare opportunity to able discuss the pro and cons with genocide from a liberal democratic (as the ideology) POV.

Opposing both Assad and the IS makes me pro-genocide?

Seeing as the result of those bombings would be that ISIS would be able to get their way with the minority enclaves and borderland in and close to their territories, yes so are the bombing of their defenders (the regime) pro-genocide.

But I guess it easier to base ones foreign policy views on feelings, rather than reading up on things.

My fear is that this is an Afghanistan late 90's-Sept 01 scenario. We have a very dangerous organization massed in large numbers and they wish to bring harm to our allies and the US. Now we are not going to solve the underlying problems by killing a bunch of ISIS members, but it is a target of opportunity.

There are no solution to the underlying problem, at least not one which should ever be acceptable.
