It's Monday there ... which is when ISIS said they were going to attack. It's on now, and it looks like they're on the way to taking over Iraq and splitting the country up ... which is actually what some said we should have done when we were there ... break it up into three parts.

Hopefully the combat engineers are placing charges
and little surprises all over the building,
including delayed action massive charges.
It’s what I would do, but then I’m not in Palm Springs.

People laughed when Biden, in one of his few lucid moments, suggested the same thing. They just said; “Split Iraq three ways? Oh Uncle Joe, stop it! Don’t you have some Selfies you could be snapping?” Iraq should do as they please, but stop involving the rest of the world in your collosal blunderings, that’s all we ask. Same with Afghanistan.

Set em’ up, move em’ out. Lets play war for 60 minutes. It will be a good test against our latest and greatest that these murderers have.

Prediction: stalemate. Kurds and Sunnis to the north, and Shiites to the south forming a branch office for Iran and an intolerable situation for Saudi Arabia.

You’re right. It should have been dealt in 3 parts. I think the problem was where the oil assets were located.

“they’re on the way to taking over Iraq and splitting the country up ... which is actually what some said we should have done when we were there ... break it up into three parts.”

NO that’s wrong, ISIS is a terrorist Sunni group, not normal Iraqi people. The territories would have just been living places for Sunnis, Shiites, Kurds, to stop the sectarian violence etc....this attack is like Al Quada only worse barbarians...not anything that we talked about when our troops were in Iraq. Oy Vey!

Breaking news update! Iraqis shut down internet at U.S. Embassy in Baghdad
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3168092/posts

A three word text was released from inside the Embassy about six hours ago: “Too late Alamo.” That message is open to interpretation.

According to ISIS financial documents seized by the Iraqis, their net worth before Mosul was $900 million, much of it from the oil fields they seized in Eastern Syria about 5 months ago. After Mosul their net worth is now over 2 billion. That's roughly $200,000 per ISIS fighter.

With that kind of cash, it was only a matter of time before something like this happened. ISIS fighters are apparently now much better paid, better armed, better organized and better supplied than even the Iraqis. Not to mention their ability to fight fanatically for their virgins.

It’s shaping up to be a good time for Putin to take over E. Ukraine. What’s next? China in Taiwan?
