Do any of us ever tear up our insurance policies? Do we really believe that Assad and his cronies are too stupid to have realized that their political survival depends on that of the Islamic State and on maintaining themselves as the keepers of the gate through which the rest of us must pass to wage war against it?
毕竟，就算水平再差，有没有棋手故意牺牲自己最有力的棋子？有没有人撕碎自己的保险单？难道我们真的认为阿萨德及其亲信都愚蠢到看不透自己的政治生命与伊斯兰国联在一起，看不透他们的命运取决于能否守住大门，不让外界攻打伊斯兰国？
