Sanders backs Obama on ISIS

[Deus Naturae]

Sanders isn't creating any daylight on foreign policy between himself and Hillary Clinton.  He presumably wants to run a domestic policy-themed campaign:

It seems he has some reservations.

He implies that they aren't actually moderate...but agrees with Obama that we should help them anyway?? That's totally incoherent and is an even worse position than just wanting to help the rebels.

So almost 2 years after she left the state department people are beginning to realise Hillary was right all along...

Right about what?  That intervening earlier, deposing Assad, and letting ISIS take Syria was the right course of action?  

Free Syrian Army does not equal ISIS.

Maybe not, but they clearly had a number of members who were jihadists, as evidenced by their killing of religious minorities and the fact that a bunch of then-FSA fighters have now defected to ISIS.

The FSA leader clearly stated they had no other goals except the removal of Assad.

And in the pursuit of that goal, they were willing to ally with jihadists and kill people because they didn't like their religion.

So, killing civilians is fine because of their political allegiance? That's pretty disgusting.

Sorry, but I have a hard time believing that any group whose members would join ISIS because foreigners wouldn't give them enough money would've used that money for honorable purposes anyway.

As would anyone with half a brain.

Why are you so arrogant?

And Rand Paul once again shows himself as a mindless flip-flopper.

How so?

[Deus Naturae]

This whole "me-too" ism regarding beating up ISIS even harder than Obama,

When has he said this? Sure you're not thinking of Ted Cruz?

In that very article, Paul condemns previous attempts to aid Syrian rebels, yet you call him a flip flopper for voting against such aid now? If anything, it would've been a flip flop for him to vote in favor.
