I am making note that as far as I know, at this moment, the only country which still has permission from Assad to be in Syria fighting IS is Russia.
None of these NATO countries, either already present or about to be, are sanctioned to be there. The NATO countries are publicly "saying" they want to help Syria be rid of IS but they will not work with or support Assad.

Because Syria will never say they are allowing the US to be there, just as the US won't tell anyone they are being allowed as that would wouldn't be something they could deny if found out.
Syria has already said any military action taken in Syria would be met with a harsh response from them. So since none of that has happened against the US jets shows they have no problem with them being there fighting ISIS.

You do know those countries aren't bound to involve the whole of NATO in what the individual countries do on their own.
"The Western governments are bringing this upon themselves. The longer they leave this door open for this torture and this massacre to carry on, the more young men will drop what they have in this life and search for the afterlife," Najjar said.
"If the West and other countries do not move fast it will no longer be just guys like me - normal everyday guys that might do anything from have a cigarette to go out on the town - it will be the real extreme guys who will take it to another level."
