The situation created by ISIS in Iraq is very convoluted.  Mr. John Kerry is urging the Suni governments in the Middle-East to stop funding the Suni Jihadists and President Obama has sent a few hundred military advisors to Iraq to advise and solidify the Iraqi armed forces against the ISIS.  This all shows that even though Mr. Maliki's policies and actions have failed to maintain peace in Iraq, the US government is still helping Mr. Maliki with the hope that eventually a peaceful atmosphere can be restored there.  However, the way ISIS waive is moving towards Baghdad by conquering town after town, the probability of this expectation to be fulfilled is very low.  Also, it shows that the US policy in Iraq is going against the interest of Saudi Arabia.  Similarly, the US policy or lack thereof in Syria is not very much appreciated by the Saudis.  Does this scenario force one to conclude that the US policy in the Middle East run counter to Saudis' interest?  If so, what will happen to the oil price down the road and to the worldwide economy?  This writer understands the geopolitical situation in the Middle-East as respects to American interest.  But is it really essential for America to get involved in every nook and corner of the world wherever these Suni-Shia skirmishes take place?  Why cann't we leave the Sunis and Shias settle their own grievances in their own way and once the dust is settled, may be then the USA ought to concentrate on their foreign policy issues with the surviving government or ethnic group. The USA cann't be a police man for the whole world and, needless to say, the world has changed a lot since WWII.  Even small nations who used to shiver with the name of the United States don't care and have any respect for Americans.  Why may be because of our unnecessary interference in everybody's affair.  May be the time has come to give a respite to the foreign policy of this nation and see what happens.  By no means, this writer is suggesting to put your guards down.  This nation has lot of fire power to protect itself from any military eventuality and no country should even think of attacking this nation.  It is just another way of earning back respect from others.
