Exactly. Nothing will be done that actually degrades IS’s ability to rape, behead, and crucify Christians. If “Obama” could wave a magic wand that would start the rapes, beheadings, and crucifixions of Christians in the U.S., he would do it.

The American Republic is dead. Has been since no later than January 22, 1973. It will never exist again unless virtually all Democrats are hunted down and brought to justice. They are baby-murderers and Communists.

The Republicans prove every day that a totalitarian regime cannot come to power without the aid of gutless worms in “opposition.”

How many times have Rush, Hannity, and Levin said of investigations into the birth certificate and other forgeries, “You’ll never get him out of office that way”? It appears that anyone who is making tens of millions off the status quo can be trusted sincerely and effectively oppose it.

“Obama” is not going to destroy a terrorist army he funded and equipped.

They knew if nearby Syria became dominated by Islamists, it would become a base and haven for the jihadists who are causing mayhem in southern Russia. It is now known that the leadership of ISIS and its most barbaric jihadists are often from Chechnya.


Assad brought this upon Syria and himself. During the Iraq war, Assad provided safe haven to Saddam dead enders and allowed Syria to be used as a staging ground for international Jihadi, most of whom were psychopathic , homicidal misfits and losers, from all over the world to assemble and infiltrate into Iraq.

Once the US kicked them out of Iraq, they retreated ti Syria and decided that if they could not take over Iraq, they would settle for Syria.

may take three years
*************************
What a load! Take out the SAMs, then strafe and bomb the hell out of every column on the roads and gatherings of groups of ISIS. ....Desert Storm showed how to do it, and there are not hundreds of tanks to deal with in this case.

I know... That sounds simplistic, but Obama is a stupid ass for saying it will take 3 years! All he has to do is start putting some serious firepower on ISIS concentrations and PERHAPS some other countries might actually believe it’s worth joining the effort. ....Three years is laughable!

It will only destroy his presidency when the Ministry of Truth decides his presidency should be destroyed.

“Three years is laughable!”

Encircle the whole lot and squeeze till all their skulls pop like the puss filled abscesses they are. Shouldn’t take more than a month or two at most.

I would think taking out ISIS and ISIL could be a great use for Special Forces. Some of those leaders could just shuffle off their mortal coils in the dead of night, and no one would know until their minions came to get them for morning prayers, and they were in their beds, with their throats cut.
