Nope. Save for the link, all words are mine, taken from the resume I've sent to Novosty.

My hope, actually, would be that we get relegated out of the whole thing.

My pacifism urges me toward the same hope but Daesh has to be stopped and, to have any hope of stopping them, they have to be destroyed. The US is doing a terrible job, not least because our strategy revolves around somehow taking out ISIS and Assad simultaneously, meanwhile ignoring al Nusra and other Islamist terrorists (except for the ones we're arming and training). And all the while, we're refusing to help the Kurds and the Shia militias who have proven themselves to be the most capable ground forced arrayed against Daesh.
Honestly, we'd be better off joining the coalition with Russia, Syria, Iran and Iraq. It would be much more effective than the four or five separated and uncoordinated efforts currently under way.
