Yet again, Republicans try and get us peace with honor and democrats screw it up.
Who wants to bet that, ten or twenty years from now, democrats will be using Iraq and Vietnam as a stick against Republicans?
This makes me sick to my stomach. Obama is ruining any and all trust we had built up with Israel, Iraq, Egypt, Afghanistan, Ukraine, Russia, and he is in the process of doing the same with Japan, China, and South Korea.
Even the new Australian PM is forging alliances to thwart the Clown’s global warming agenda.
He lost face with Brazil when it was discovered he had tapped their phones. Same with Germany.
The only friends he seems to have is with the mullahs in Iran and the rabidly pro-sodomy David Cameron in Britain. And neither of THEM are particularly loved by the populations THERE either.
A disaster all over the world. Massive suck.
And Obama won’t shed a tear, he wants that to happen..actually what he wants is what the majority of Muslims want, a Caliphate..he is probably grinning from ear to ear right now
And just as John Kerry & Pals cheered in 1975 they'll probably cheer today as well.
No no, couldn’t be, John Kerry tells us that all we did was roll in like “Jenjis” Khan and terrorize them.
Holy crap. All you need to do is send a few Predator drones with some hellfires and blow up some camps. They rebels will freak.
Send in the Democrat Division with their leader Nuke ‘Em Nancy Pelosi.
Just like the fall of Vietnam. Orcestrated by Treasonous Democrats Once again. Withhold weapons, withhold support, let em die. Democrats never change. Guess 0 is ticked he couldn’t keep the muslim brotherhood in charge of Egypt. Couldn’t get al-quda to take over Syira. 0 will have to settle for taking over Iraq and showing his contempt for the sacrifices of our armed forces.
Why can’t Iraq strike them themselves? I know their military has a habit of cutting and run...but even so...they still can fight on the ground. Don’t they have any fighter planes?
Someone should take the “Like a Boss” bumper sticker and substitute the words “When a pussy is in the White House people die”
You have a loooong wait Nuri.
I saw this, and it’s outrageous. Hussein Obama cannot hide behind the excuse that “the Iraqi government doesn’t want us there.” They have clearly asked for our support.
I’m not saying we put boots on the ground. Some targeted drone strikes or air strikes though would give the Iraqi Army needed cover, and the cost of it would just be a rounding error in the defense budget.
Sorry I’m actually pretty pissed about this. I’m going to write a letter to my congressman about this.
ISIS is moving faster than coalition forces. WOW!
The damned Iraqis should be able to handle these insurgents. Instead, they're running like hell with their tails between their legs.
We spend YEARS training and equipping them. They should be able to fight. An insurgent group should'be be able to topple two cities almost unopposed.
We as Americans can't want a modern and successful Iraq more than the Iraqis do.
All you people who died and suffered fight for Iraq.
You did it all for nothing.
Active duty ping.
Didn’t we already do this?
The way events are unfolding is reminiscent of Vietnam in March and April 1975 and Cuba in mid-December December 1958.
All of the sudden, Fidel’s forces came out of the mountains and started taking over Cuban cities.
Batista’s forces were on the run and on New Year’s Day 1959 the Communists (who the “New York Times” and Communist sympathizer reporter Herbert Matthews chose to portray as freedom fighter led by a “George Washington” named Fidel Castro) rolled into Havana.
Yup, unfortunately.
I weep for our country and our allies.
