War is raging in syria between the government of Bashar Al- Assad, who the U.S. doesn't want to win, and the islamic state. who the U.S. also doesn't want to win. (Barack Obama: What we need is a lose-lose scenario, where both sides lose. Like here, with the democrat's and republicans!) To ensure that neither side wins, the U.S. supplies weapons to whichever side is starting to lose. (Man: Computer models say Assad needs 32,503 AK-47's and 42 APCs to hold Halab Province. Done!) America's lofty ambition: keep the war equally balanced until the last two soldiers, one from each side, simultaneously kill each other. (Men: OW!) Careful calibration is only the beginning. We also have to make sure they don't find out what we're up to. (Man: President Assad- looks like the Americans accidentally sent us a batch of beheading knives for ISIS!)
