Is America 'enabling the enemy' in the Middle East?

Is America "enabling the enemy" in the Middle East? That's the question Glenn Beck's head writer and chief of research asked in a mini-series that aired during The Glenn Beck Program.

"The French foreign minister said not too long ago -- he kinda let it slip," Jason Buttrill, the chief of research, remarked. "He said that we cannot have a stable Iraq without a political transition first in Syria. I think that was a huge mistake and I think that shows what they're trying to do. ... They're trying to push ISIS back into Syria."

Buttrill said President Obama's strategy is "the enemy of my enemy is my friend," and right now, he wants to use the Islamic State to attack Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

"We're making the same mistakes that we've always made," he said. "We should not be playing that game."
