Truth is, they weren't.
US flew in with bombs and returned home with those same bombs (not all, obviously)
Russia is active in Syria as we all know, however they were targeting other groups and not following suit with the western plan to take Al-assad out.
It's a mess, but we all seem to be in favour of what the plan is now (or will be)
UK aren't even active (yet).. don't know why they were mentioned here.

THis is what I don't understand, why would the West want Assad out?
If the main target is ISIS.
Saddam, Mubarak, Ghaddafi, how many more? What is our government doing?
This is why I'm disgusted by this whole middle east situation. It's so convoluted for the fact that special interests are playing a heavy hand. The goal isn't to stabilize and create democracy, the goal (as I've read, maybe I'm mistaken) is to further Western interests at the expense of non-western lives.
Yeah.. let ISIS continue bombing cities and just sit back and try to reason with them over tea.
