I have no idea who we should be rooting for. Probably neither.

One is a coalition of some of the worst oppressive, dictatorial and theocratic regimes in the world trying to pop up a puppet government with zero public support.

The other are a popular coalition of religious heterodox tribes, through dominated by the Shia group. It's also very hostile to  the Al Quada group which operate in Yemen.

Of course the former are western allies and the latter friendly toward Iran. But even with that I prefer the rebels.

Susan's position in the alliance is intriguing. I guess Al-Bashir has now completely changed sides.

I think the Iraqi invasion and Arab spring radical changed the perspective of the Middle East, from radical Islam was in opposition to the West, it seem now that in very simple term the conflict have changed to fundamentalist Sunnis trying to purge the Middle East of Shia Islam and Secularism.
