What are the odds that Baraq & Mooch get the franchise rights for ISIS in N. America?

You can guarantee an IDF response if ISIS expands into Lebanon, and it won’t be pretty.

As predicted. Lebanon is the real prize. Syria was just in the way.

You sure about that? ISIS has lots of that artillery and stuff that we left in Iraq.

Yeh, those militias are not defenseless like some of their other victims. I hope they get their asses handed to them.

Most importantly, if Lebanon falls to the Caliphate, it is one more flag raised in sworn oath of fealty to the Emir of the Islamic State.

The West is just a few dominoes away from a cascading explosion of encircling armies, encouraging and coaching insurgent attacks from the embedded resources of the Caliphate.

Rome is correct to deploy troops.

Hopefully they will be fighting ISIS instead of each other as they sadly have done up until now.

So we did just deliver weapons to ISI, er, ah, Lebanon. There is something fishy going on here.

The Lebanese are not going to stand around get their heads cut off. And if they get close to the IDF outposts, they are not going to put up with it either.

Christians in Lebanon have reportedly armed themselves to combat ISIS and other jihadists.

ISIS controls large swaths of Iraq and Syria. Lebanon borders Syria. ISIS may also face resistance from marijuana growers in Lebanon.

The Book of Isaiah predicts Damascus will be nuked. We may be getting ever closer to that day. ISIS will not stop until they can destroy Israel.
