Wait a minute... 

Your friends armed them up with tons of weapons to help overthrow Assad in Syria.

Your friends killed Gaddafi in Libya because he wasn't cool with you running guns through his country to get them to your friends in Syria.

Your friends supported the Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt that got their asses handed to them by their own countrymen. Hell, you even gave them jets and tanks.

And now, you want to ask for help fighting them to "show the world" again how big of a fuck up you and your brainchildren are? Boy, you are some kind of speshul aren't you?
