Let's not beat around the bush here with fancy terminology. The Syrian Opposition has been infiltrated by Al-Qaeda. You know how we're all afraid of Assad using those chemical weapons of his, right?
Well, if we keep supporting the Syrian Opposition, Al-Qaeda or other terrorist organizations hostile to the United States might get their hands on those chemical weapons. That would certainly not be an ideal situation.
One might argue how Al-Qaeda was part of the Libyan Opposition, and did not attack US interests after Gaddafi fell (except possibly that embassy thing...).
Let's stop funneling money to those who wish to harm America. Use that money to fix US infrastructure or to feed American poor.
