Imagine that!

I've made a point to look at some of these characters...and other political figures (movers and shakers) not commonly known to most of the public ..here as well as foreign. You'd be amazed what faces show up on a continuum , prior to and during events and political happenings.

This is another reason they have 'think tanks', where individuals are assigned to follow interested parties. They learn everything about these individuals...from hand jesters to what they eat and expressions, and much more.

One of the interesting things about studing Putin is his stoic expressions rarely change...he's a hard read for most as he knows all to well about reading people so he knows not to reveal by expressions. However his body language can often reveal much...as the obvious disdain he has for Ob.... I understand Putin's a very quick study of people, and those who know him have mentioned so.

.... But this ISIS character is seeking his own glory and will not only oppose those who defy him but think nothing at all about eliminating people by whatever means which can instill the greatest fear to his followers. He's as vile as they come.

Though they had a Kurdish candidate I simply don’t buy they will look favorable toward a Kurdish Pres.....but time will tell.

Turkey’s already funding ISIS so I don’t see how they will support Iraq’s Pres. But then these M.Easterns can change on a dime and without blinking.

ISIS is going to win because they will do what it takes to achieve victory....world opinion be damned.....and unfortunately the world is too cowardly to destroy them.

That is an accurate description of the USA (unfortunately sad but true) and of western Europe. Our western civilation & the USA are now too weak & cowardly to put up any resistance.

However I think that Putin/Russia and Red China will not capitulate or cater to the muzzie terrorists, and in fact will hit back at the muzzies so hard, their pointy muzzlim heads will be spinning. Neither of these countries care at all for so-called political correctness and will care less about pandering to the muzzies. The reason that the press & the liberals loonies hate Putin so hard now, is because he stood up to and humiliated our gay boy pres__ent 0dumb0 and left wing ideology.

The Muslims have Mohammed as their sacred prophet and he claimed to be a descendant of Ishmael, as are most in the Middle East except for Israel. The Bible was clear about Ishmael, and the descendants do not fall far from the tree:

What that tells us is that ‘what is next’ will always be chaos and more chaos.....just read what Scripture says Ishmael will be....a wild donkey.

18 If this further splits an already pathetic military and Shitte militia look for Iran to grab oil producing areas in the south and leave the rest to IS.

Part II, Iran-Iraq War, 1980-1988, except this time the Christians get exterminated.

“Obama won’t know about this until tomorrow’s morning paper, if someone reads him more than the funnies.”

Only if Prime Minister Soros directs the Conduit, Valerie Jarrett to read the (very carefully filtered and pre-approved) “news” to his little brown sock puppet.

And the US will not send arms to the Kurds except through the central government, which soon won’t exist anymore.

We did this.

Unfortunately, we have no one in the State department who understands history or strategy, and haven’t since WWII.

The Kurds? Sane?

Sir, you need to read up on them a bit. They are the best fighters in the area, and have been for generations. But they are not “sane”. There is a reason that Turkey hates them, and that ISIS is focusing their attacks on them.

Do I prefer them (today) to ISIS? Sure. But a resurgent Kurdish state will be a huge issue in that area.

Say what you will but Saddam killed almost exclusively Muslims until we got involved in Desert Storm.

Our withdrawal leads to Iran seizing the areas it lost hundreds of thousands trying to seize in the 1980s Iran-Iraq war - and looks like a heroic stabilizing force compared to the horrors of ISIS.

Just like when Vietnam invaded Cambodia to remove Pol Pot.

Things are changing, and our President is still hoping, though for what, who knows. Sunshine, perhaps, he doesn't like golf in the rain.

Well, we set up a puppet state, and then left.

If we wanted to stabilize Iraq, we should have stayed.

I have friends that were there, and they are very angry with obambi right now.
