Rather, experts say it means that the United States shared an overarching goal with the opposition -- namely, countering Assad -- without actively supporting all elements of that opposition. In the byzantine world of the Syrian opposition, the United States sought to support moderate elements while opposing extremists such as AQI and, later, ISIS.
So they didn't support AQI, they just supported a bunch of people who were fighting with AQI in support of similar causes. Ya, that's totally fucking different.

Who cares if ISIS don't like Trump? Isn't that an argument in his favour? So if Hillary is nicer to Muslims, then ISIS won't hate the West so much? I don't think so.
