**Jordanian king vows 'relentless' war on Islamic State's own ground**

I know that they are allies of ours in this, but it's a shame that this poor pilot had to suffer such a horrible death before he vowed a relentless war.

I wish our dear leader <spit> would grow a pair before these monsters do something horrible here.

Jordan never had any interest in sending F-16s into Syria to begin with. They were pretty much forced into that position under direct and indirect pressure from the U.S. That’s why they were perfectly willing to make an exchange with ISIS when they thought the pilot was still alive.

They’ve already done a lot of horrible things here (not ISIS, specifically, but Muslims in general) and I don’t think there’s anything that would get Obama to respond aggressively. You have to realize, he’s not on our side. He’s not even on the side of the non-radical Muslims in the ME.

Jordan is Sunni Muslim, like the Saudis, but has about a 6% Christian population. While it’s got a lot of “Palestinians,” it seems to be focused more on its own goals than trying to take over the world - the way the rest of Islam, Sunni or Shiite, wants to do.

I read that Obama left the meeting with the King of Jordan “very abruptly” yesterday. I bet that the King asked him for support and Obama told him no way.

Obama is having a meeting with representatives of a large number of Muslim groups this week, behind closed doors (no press). Obama thinks he’s the new grand mufti, or maybe the new caliph of the new caliphate, and he seems to be opposed not at all to ISIS, which is furthering his goals.

Why should he grow a pair when he is not even on our side?
