"Wider war" is baked in the cake.

There will be a Muslim "Tet Offensive" across Europe in 2016, with tens of thousands of "refujihadis" as the fighters.

Yeah zero and his ally Erdogan doing all they can do to protect ISIS and Al qaeda. When did we switch sides in the War on Terror? I hate that name.

Zero better be very careful here, besides the risk of a real shooting war with Russia, he risks exposing himself as a stealth Jihadist. Either event might just be enough to force a spineless Congress into action, maybe.

He believes in the restoral of a caliphate under Ottoman rule
**********************************

That’s the bottom line.
Erdogan wants to be the Caliph.

Obama and McCain and Graham and Rubio are idiots for thinking there are “moderate” jihadis in Syria.

This is a holy war. Our enemy has declared it. We can ignore that Islam is at war with the rest of the world, like it has been since 622 A.D., but that will not make it go away.

After Obama’s term he’ll need to seek refuge similar to Osama or Sadam. The truth of his treason is well known to all with courageous eyes.

However, Erdogan [ and Obama are] at heart a jihadist who shares more in common with ISIS's Islamic supremacist ideology than he does with Western secular values.

it's becoming so clear where our president stands that even another layer of the brain-dead are seeing it

Almost 1000 years after Charles Martel, Prince Eugene defeated the Ottoman Turks at The Battle of Zenta, Yugoslavia on Sep. 11 1697. The last high water mark of the Muslims in Europe, now look where they are!

Obama wants to dray NATO into the war so he will have an excuse to support ISIS.

No doubt in my mind that Turkey and Obama are supporting ISIS.

I know what to do with those 781 Winchester Defenders: Ship them back to the State and sell them here, proceeds to go to victims of Moo violence.

Better still, sell them in "Old American" suburbs on the south side of Chicago, just to frost Barky.

I don't know about that. They've posted a pretty middling record against the Russians.

During the time of Catherine and Peter the Great, the Russians were usually victorious; but in 1870 the Turks beat the Russian army like a tin drum. The reason was, the Russians were carrying older-model rifles comparable to the 1848 Springfield rifle, but the Turks had upgraded to Western lever-action rifles (Winchester 1866 "Yellowboys" iirc). The result was very one-sided.

In World War I, the Turks held their own against all the Western Allies in the Dardanelles region, but lost everything in the Fertile Crescent.
