“...consisting of several Cessna planes carrying American-supplied Hellfire missiles”
Now THAT is something I’d like to see on Youtube!
I am of the opinion that the Kurds could use some A10s
I wonder if the congressional authorizations for use of force in Iraq were still in effect, of if Obama is about to be in violdation of the war powers act and the constitution again.
10 years in Iraq and they don’t have qualified pilots?
They can’t defend against terrorists with all the training and superior equipment they were given? I realize its the man holding the gun, not the gun that matters but really?
Iraq and Afghanistan have been a complete and colossal waste of time money resources and more importantly Americas Finest men and women.
I have no idea how to post a picture on here but a huge (facepalm) I believe is in order.
There is no more Constitutional Government in the US any longer therefor you are not entitled to the truth about the US Military bombing ISIS.
It way WAY above your pay grade.
Get used to the Fundamentally Transformed United States
“Who Else, Besides Americans, Are Flying Fighter Jets in Iraq?”
That is always the question. THAT is why the third world countries look to Americans for help and justice and want to be here. Only a small handful of other countries really care, and we usually take the lead. GOD BLESS AMERICA!
Egypt?
I don’t know but I’d happily fly a hellfire equipped drone for our side from right here at home.
Hell the government could probably get people to pay for the privilege.
Assuming we put enough planes in the sky, ISIS should be done. Using American air support, the Northern Alliance pushed the Taliban across the Pakistani border. I don’t see why this performance can’t be repeated in Iraq, assuming enough American air power appears on the scene. This would mean B-52’s, B-1’s, F-15’s, F-16’s, A-10’s and so on. With an executive decision, Obama can wipe ISIS off the map in Iraq.
His Majesty King Barry the Froggy probably only jumped because Russia was ready to do more than send planes and pilots.
He beat the anti-Russia wardrums and if Russia turns up helping Christians in the ME his whole misdirection propaganda line starts to fray around the edges.
JMHO
These ISIS thugs operate right out in the open. How difficult would it be to fly some drones over their positions and bomb the s..t out of them? We use drones all the time to kill terrorists in other parts of the mideast. Would we need to have piloted planes doing the killing?
