Who’s next in line in this Whack-a-Mole game? Take HIM out and then the dozens behind HIM!

Every last one of them needs to be dead. Yesterday.

Obama is going to be real upset when he hears about it in the news after he gets off the golf course.

Quick, quick....change the subject!

Let’s pretend B. Hussein Obama is a great national security demigod, leading the charge against the mighty ISIS!

The media will comply, dutifully licking the Democrat boots and pretending this matters.

You know, just like when Al Qaeda folded up after Osama was eliminated. Oh, wait....

I am sure John McCain is too happy right now. This was his buddy he met up with.

You are assuming he did, and that he fully understood the op. Remember, he can't stand the daily briefings. Maybe he's out of the loop on some of the decisions.

The politicians of both sides of the Uniparty (Republicans and Democrats) get to use the IS’s existence as justification for us supporting them so they can fight a Vietnam style never ending war against them......

Heck, if wars were won quickly the defense contractor friends of our politicians like John McCain or Diane Feinstein or whoever would not be able to stay in business and make lots of money from the taxpayer dime.

Sadly, you’re right.

I was mobilized for Operation Desert Shield/Storm, ‘90 - ‘93. That was a SHORT one, though all part of the whole.

Thank God I had Stormin’ Norman as my General! :)

He likely is. Definitely. I think the military said “screw Obama”, and is actively getting the job done. I mean, I’m sure orders are coming down. But they are probably left to commanders discretion.

The old ways of fighting wars are gone and we live in the age of international law and the United Nations.

Its been about policing the world ever since Korea and those who wanted to win wars like MacAruthur got fired for their ideas.....

Eisenhower’s notion of a military industrial complex is not a way out far fetched thing either. The money flows into politicians and the contracts flow out to the defense industry.
