Death, destruction, disease, horror. That's what war is all about, Anan. That's what makes it a thing to be avoided. You've made it neat and painless. So neat and painless, you've had no reason to stop it. And you've had it for five hundred years.

James T. Kirk, from A Taste Of Armaggedon

Isn’t it interesting that a hack leftist “comedian” named Larry Wilmore had the stones to mock Ødungo for his drone strikes when no one else can be bothered?

Obviously the General hasn’t been on the ground (DOD sent 25 more Marines to protect our embassy in Iraq)...

“UN envoy says more than 50 mass graves found in parts of Iraq re-taken from ISIS”

They are an army committing genocide.

They might be “more” than a terrorist group, but they’re also a terrorist group. Those expressions are not mutually exclusive.

I say pull out of the middle east completely. Let the ISIS and Iran duke it out for control of the stink pile, including the royal family of SA.

After they have established their so called governments with capitals or governments then tactical nuke each and every one at exactly the same moment. Killing all their leaders and secondarily nuke their military installations and hour later.

If the message is not recognized by the camel f’ers then send them seconds a couple of days later.

Collateral damage be damned, I am sick of us spilling another drop of our blood or another cent of our money.

Mecca, specifically the Ka'aba, as well.

Unfortunately ISIS was created by idiots in our Government starting with Bush going into Iraq. Once Saddam was gone we no longer had an Iraq that was able to stand up to both Syria and Iran. Then Obama goes along with France and others and helps take Libya from Gaddafi. That left no one to control radical Muslims. Hence WE/OUR stupid State Dept created ISIS. This crap most always starts at the State Dept. I recall the old Col’s and Gens who came over for cocktails when I was growing up, and; often I heard them blame the blanks at State for each war. Seriously, we are going to have to be willing to take our country back as everything this country was founded upon to include our religious freedom and the Ten Commandments that we had posted in public places like in school and local gov buildings along with the Lord’s Prayer that we said in school no longer exists do to hate America types. Yet,the damn Muslims can do as they please in OUR country.

ISIS was formerly called Jama’at al-Tawhid wal-Jihad and existed in the capital of Iraq at least a year before the invasion. al Tawhid was part of the 1999 Millennium Plot, and its leader remained the leader even as it underwent multiple name changes, even when it became ISIS.
If you think ISIS magically sprung into existence after March 20, 2003, you simply do not know your history.

It was no mystery that ISIS was headed by both the leader of al Tawhid but also the head of Iraqi intelligence... for the group had been aided from the beginning by Iraq, even in 1999... ven when it had a training camp in Afghanistan near bin Laden’s. The Iraqi general in question was the same one who after 1996 [the year of a failed coup in Iraq] began advising Saddam Hussein to embrace islamists. In response, Hussein imposed elements of shariah law, began constructing mosques, had his son’s newspaper begin praising al Qaeda, funded Mullah Krekar’s Ansar attacks on Kurds in the north, etc. Krekar’s group contained members of Iraqi intelligence and merged into al Tawhid before it renamed itself. Saddam’s speeches grew increasingly islamicist. Iraq’s internet domain Uruk.net was based on the same server used by terror charities in the US prior to 9/11- remember the Holy Land Foundation -and published his speeches regularly. They did not read like the ramblings of a ‘secularist.’ Aroound the same time Iraq began funding Abu Sayyaf in the Philippines, the group that was making news by lopping off hostages’ heads.

What we call ISIS today was the same group cited by Colin Powell in 2002 as having terrorist cells in Baghdad and in northern Iran on the Iranian border. The head of that group al Tawhid - also the first head of ISIS before al Baghdaddi- and the guy who plotted the Millennium attacks on Jordanian targets in 1999 that were to coincide with the AQ millennium attack on the airport in Los Angeles that New Year’s... was the guy the left kept insisting wasn’t a threat because he wasn’t “al Qaeda” at the time of 9/11. He hadn’t yet sworn the oath to bin Laden. Strangely enough, he did eventually swear the oath to bin Laden ... but only after Saddam Hussein was dead.
The Bush admin was actually prescient in wanting to take out this group so long ago ... but were mocked for it by the same morons who later empowered the group as it went through its name changes. They had identified it as an enemy long before you even knew they existed.
