The USA has a credibility problem in the Middle East:
-it debunked a secular system of Sadam Hussein only to see ISIS/Sunni/ Muslim Brotherhood take over.
-fought a bitter war against the Taliban only to see them return.
-supported Egypt/North African Arab Spring only to see the Muslim Brotherhood fill the vacuum
-supported anti Syrian Rebels alongside AlQueda & ISIS Sunnis against a secular Syrian Asad Government

supporting Muslim groups who believe in neither.
Has Uncle Sam got a Middle East cred. problem?
