#1 It is an interesting article and vid. It exposes a different point of view, one that I hadn't been aware of. Al Masdar seems to believe that the US backed coalition wishes to preserve ISIS, which is news to me. In stating this, it also implies that the US wants to preserve ISIS. Personally, I want them all dead.

#2 Unlike the US coalition who wishes to preserve ISIS in Syria as a future card against the Damascus-Tehran-Moscow alliance, the objective of pro-government forces is clear, absolute and simple ‐ for them ISIS, as the most fundamentally despotic and godforsaken entity to ever establish itself on Syrian soil, must be destroyed. With virtually all of the Syrian Army’s vanguard strength being directed against the so-called Islamic State

U.S. coalition wants to preserve ISIS? I doubt that Trump is supporting that policy, at least that is not what he says. He seems to be hell-bent on destroying ISIS.

Is this, supposedly U.S. led coalition that wants to preserve ISIS a left-over from Obama's deep state? More Obama Arab Spring B.S. that hasn't been cleaned out yet?

#3 Keep in mind that if it ain't Syrian, Russian, Iranian or Hesb'allah - it's 'ISIS'.
