Let's look at the facts. ISIS is using US military gear, captured by the Blitz they started, that played siege to most of Syria and Iraq when they chose to break off from Al Qaeda. Iraq's troops were ill prepared, ill trained for a large force of ISIS fighters, who were not very skilled themselves, but were juiced up on drugs, which made them careless, and hard to take down. ISIS soldiers, were not afraid to die.
The US then funded the YPG and YPJ, along with a bit of help to the FSA. The FSA or, Free Syrian Army, is a group fighting Assad's forces, after Assad ordered his military regime to fire on it's citizens, initially setting off the civil war in that country. The YPG and YPJ meanwhile, took on most of the brunt force of ISIS in Iraq, and parts along the border with Syria. Today the YPG, YPJ, FSA, all fight ISIS. Assad also fights ISIS where needed, and does not fight the YPG and YPJ, usually holding cease fires on each other's forces when ISIS is around. Turkey, however, finds time to attack the Kurdish, and not lay a finger on ISIS, until they got attacked. They then changed their minds.
So now while all of this is in motion, people are forced to leave the country, finding a place to live in other nations. While they try to find peace, they find the opposite, in a society in many nations, that are divided my opinion, taught to many that rise the fears of the migrants being quote, "terrorists", and invaders. People complain about it, and say the migrants, and Refugee's have no place in Europe, Asia, or America. These people are usually uneducated, and point the blame, at current world leaders, for the situation. Did Putin do it? Did Obama do it?
The Answer to that last question, is none. Nor Putin or Obama, are the cause for this situation in the middle east. However, it is the cause, of a long lost war, some say, is returning. Here's some History. After WWII, it become clear the Nuclear Bomb was the most devastating weapon man ever created. The Soviet Union and the US clashed for power, in the global eye after the Great War, the two Powers with different ways of life, and the Soviet Union, left with a sort of pain, of not gaining enough from the end of the War. Later down the line, Soviets and US backed rebels in the middle east clash. This destabilized the region in the middle east and North Africa. The Soviet's and the US, fought a proxy war in the middle east, to avoid Nuclear conflict. They chose to fight a proxy war, over peace. What they wanted, was power. What they caused, was pain. Now, years later, that same conflict, proved to have destabilized the region so much, that those same rebel groups, still operate, and without backing, find means to hold their own, even against the US's Modern might. When Bush went to Iraq over 9/11, not only did it create anger, it created a sort of Phobia against Islamic, which was carried with US Military personal. Everyone was seen as enemy to some, even civilians. With a force meant to get revenge, and not solve any particular issue, it further destabilized the situation. Bush kept this going, as he also set out for side missions, such as Oil, but never once, did he find a WMD, which is what the original statement of the conflict, was aimed at. The threat of a WMD, was brought out, a fear, of old times with the Cold War.
Now, Obama hits office, and faces harsh resistance from hard-line Conservatives, no one trusted him the moment he was elected. With ease, he found Bin Laden, that of which Bush could never track down. Obama had set out to pull out US forces from the Middle East. He helped the Afghans before pulling out a majority of the forces. He lay waste to Al Qaeda where ever he could, and worked to fix relations with China, Russia, and the Middle east. China and the Middle East grew to be more assuring of the US, and it's ambitions. Russia was ok too, until the Ukraine sought to join NATO. This, Putin say as a danger to the Russian Federation, a threat, a fear brought back, from a Cold War, a war of just that. Fear. The relations became stale when Putin ordered a secret Annexation of Crimea, a large portion of Ukrainian land, also a key strategic point of access to the Russian Navy. It didn't stop there, Putin needed something else to cover up the real reason behind his Annexation of Crimea besides just a fear of NATO nations all around the Russian Federation. So he ushered support to Russian Speaking citizens in Crimea and East Ukraine. He used the same, unknown soldiers with no markings in Crimea to help form a rebel group, now known as the Donetsk Republic, and others joined them. They entered Ukrainian Law Enforcement buildings, Police stations, Government buildings, and quickly created a situation in which the Ukrainian's were forced to use Force to protect their Sovereign Nation. The Region still today, is destabilized, and even after a tragedy that is presumed a Russian made BUK system with Amateur rebels at it's hands, had accidentally shot down a civilian place carrying Hundreds of people. To the Rebels, it was just a plane over a war zone, that of which wasn't likely something the pilot was aware of, how badly the situation in east Ukraine had become.
Back in Syria, ISIS had formed, a sub group for Al-Qaeda. They'd become so barbaric that even the leader of Al-Qaeda had spoken out against them. After months, then Years over destruction, and Barbaric murder of anyone who would not join them in their crusade, force people to find a save heaven. From the Middle East, to North Africa, the same problems had grown even worse. Boko Haram, joining ISIS's ranks to form an even stronger, and total controlling force of evil, kidnapping thousands of girls, selling them, killing the families, and torching their towns with every attack. No humanity, one would dare say worse than Hitler himself, ISIS was a force of pure, and total evil, with no foreign support. Just pure, Barbaric destruction of all things humane.
That is the struggle was face now. All because of the Cold War. The struggle for Power, Resources, Greed. The need for oil to power the war machines, develop new, more powerful weapons of destruction, the one up to their adversaries, had caused a world strife. The fate of Humanity lied in the hands of the Soviets, and the Americans. Their war, their Greed, their thirst for Power, had put us all in danger, no one but government officials having a say, in weather to cover the Earth in Nuclear dust today, or tomorrow.
Respectfully, with new leadership at it's hands, the United States, and the Russian Federation, should be the two nations that set aside their differences, their past, their ugly war, and fix the problem their past leaders caused. The world, is here to help. At last, at the UN Summit and Assembly, this could be reached. The thirst for power, and Nuclear Arms could be put to rest, if the World comes together, to make that happen.
