Just yesterday he said there is no military solution to what's going on in Iraq, that it required an Iraqi political solution.

Also, remember that there were news reports that air strikes had already occurred, but the White House and Pentagon denied both it.

Well, it seems in his view, war is never the answer, right? Except when it is.

Several hours after denying it, they say they have authorized limited air strikes.

I think some pilots had had enough of seeing children being beheaded and their heads being displayed on pikes, and Obama doing nothing about it, and they decided to take matters into their own hands. I think Obama's after-the-fact "authorization" is just his attempt to cover up a mutiny.

You misunderstand the objective.

The objective is to effectively begin to establish the new border. ISIL is being told stop that shit!

Stay away from the Kurds.
