Another Incredible Mistake by Obama in the Middle East

Almost lost in the news that president Obama has broken his oft-repeated promise not to have American ground forces in Syria, there is a small part of that announcement which ought not be overlook.  One of the new actions by the USA is going to be providing more aid to opponents of ISIS in Jordan and Lebanon.  Think about that for a moment.  In Jordan, America can aid the government of King Abdullah which has been heavily involved in the fight against ISIS since that group burned a captured Jordanian pilot alive and then distributing a video of that great "triumph".  The Jordanians have also taken in more than a million Syrian refugees and need help.  In Lebanon, however, the only people fighting ISIS are all part of Hezbollah.  That's HEZBOLLAH!!!  Is the USA now going to provide assistance to the terrorists at Hezbollah as they supposedly fight ISIS?  The reality in Syria is that Hezbollah normally fights with Assad against the Sunni rebels like the Free Syrian Army that the USA supports.  Has Obama decided that he will now not only send troops to help the Free Syrian Army but also send arms and cash to those who are trying to kill the Free Syrian Army (and our troops)?  What moron came up with that plan?
