It’s hard to grasp the magnitude of this - coupled with the fact that nobody here seems to be paying much attention to it. And our intelligence services had no warning of this coming storm?
AQ is getting its own country, one that we lost thousands of lives attempting to defend and restore.
Who knew, when we all but defeated the Taliban, forcing them into caves, sent Saddam into a hole in the ground, and put AQ on their heals, they would be celebrating huge victories over us just 11 years later? Iraq is may be lost. We don’t have the will to take it back. With Iraq, ISIS will easily take Syria. What else? Qatar? UAE? Yemen? Oman? Saudi? The answer is yes. If Iraq falls, the Taliban/AQ will take all of Arabia. I have a hunch Putin and Obama are behind all of it. They’ll then have to fight over which one gets to be Antichrist.
