I asked a recently remitted member of the US State Department’s Policy Planning Staff why Washington did nothing to stop its allies when they were arming and financing brutal killers in Syria. He responded with a shrug that ‘we have no leverage over Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Turkey to change their behavior.'”
