Washington’s idea to send Saudi troops to Syria is a last ditch attempt to save Jihadi extremists from total defeat and continue their push for regime change in Damascus. The result will be greater conflict, more death and destruction, and the real possibility of a Sunni extremist entity taking shape where ISIS was defeated. But above all, it will transform a Syrian proxy war into a full fledged regional conflict. This may be exactly what the United States is looking for. (Two errors corrected 4/22/2018)
