Say we were to go to war with "ISIS" and win. That would inevitably result in Syria and Iraq being occupied by the US.
Knowing how Arab people feel about the US it really would not be difficult to make both countries stable places and strong US allies.
Unfortunately, when we have roughly 600 individuals in a city making decisions who do not know (or care) about the history of the Middle East, the Arab mentality, the unique background and culture within the Levant, or even the legitimate aspirations of the Kurds than we are do for nothing less than disaster.
No.What? Did you misspeak?
Tis merely a small fraction of Iranian society that really truly believes that propaganda. Besides, Iran's motives are highly misunderstood in the West because of our media. In Iran, the American Olympic teams are more popular, more closely followed and more viewed than the Iranian teams. The mistakes that the US made with Iraq and Afghanistan is not occupation itself, but the manner in which we handled those occupations.The only thing that would make Arabs and Iranians despise the US more than it does for already being the Great Satan and supporter of Israel would be occupation of Muslim territory. If that could happen--attempting to occupy Syria and northern Iraq would be a losing proposition, and anyone who understood combat logistics could look at a map and see that.
No.
As one who has studied the Levant, its peoples and met some of its peoples I like to believe that I can "speak" on this subject with a fair degree of authority.
The people of the Arab world do indeed love Western culture. Movies, music, comedians, etc. However, there is a fear from those with power that too much admiration would result in Arabs losing their own identity and culture. The common people of Lebanon, Jordan and pre-war Syria love the US and Americans. The common people also are not really all that religious. Sure, they'll fast during Ramadan, but that's about the extent of your average Levantine Arab person's religious participation.

In Japan, for example, after WWII we rebuilt Japanese society and kept it centered around the Emperor because retaining the emperor maintained a degree of sanity and continuity for them. Afghanistan used to be a kingdom before their war with the Soviet Union some thirty-forty years ago. The last king of Afghanistan died around 2004, but was widely respected by Pashtuns, Tajiks, Uzbeks and all the other people of Afghanistan. He had been modernizing the country when the Soviets kicked him out in the 1970s, but if we had put him back in power instead of Karzai I'm willing to be that we'd see a very different Afghanistan than we do today because of the fact that the last king was so well respected by everybody that all factions would have readily rallied behind him to improve the country.
I don't think you've ever interacted with Arabs or Persians because if you had than you would know that the hatred which the media propagates is mainly coming from extremist elements of governments, not the majority opinion.

It's Destiny. Read Revelation 12:15-16 and ask God for Wisdom to understand.
USA: Don't get tangled in confusing Syrian affairs but
BY
ALL
MEANS
FIGHT
ISIS!!!
Yes, I am one of those who thought that Russia was Magog.Back in my youth, all the end-times prophets had firmly concluded, and had preached for decades, that it was all about a final battle with Russia. They had all the scriptures pointing directly to Russia. Now some of those same folk are in love with Russia.
It is a requirement. They need to seal up the Levant prior to Iran, Iran has to go down prior to 100% GCC NATO controlled Middle east.
The US "Dumb Giant" has to be the muscle.
OIL is the key goal there oil control and petro-dollar control. Nothing less, nothing more other than full ME control with the world war cycle.
NATO has "black" areas of expansion but even on the books it is four times more war potential than Russia and China combined. This happened because after the Cold War Russia and China went globalization hosts, and they helped fund NATO who went final world war gangbusters on steriods.
So, Russia and China have already lost WW4, counting Cold WW3 in the count.
BUT, to make it all look real, they will play this world war out in some unique ways and for the course, but it all resolves as per Revelation 13:3 into world government "8th King", "King North" and a global "world peace" of 1 Thessalonians 5:1-3 to help sell the gig.
Everything else like ISIS, is just like "Crazy Horse", just a distraction for the mostly unseen goal: GOLD and control. No matter the form it may exist in. (Daniel 11:42-43)
