Cart Before the Horse

U. S. Trains Syrian Rebels in Jordan to Fight ISIS doesn't mention any political unity behind this militia made up apparently by our CIA.  "Vetting is an important part of the program." According to Department of Defense Secretary Carter. Without a local moderate political union to keep these guys in line there is no way to figure which way they will turn once they are asked to fight.  For who? For What?  The pesh merga works for the Kurdish, the strongest political union in Iraq.  Something like that needs to be encouraged and developed among the moderate Syrians in the refugee camps in Jordan, but apparently that effort has gone in the wrong direction where these camps have been emptied and moderates dispersed.
