Bring the hardware home from there and let’s just pretend he never existed, which based on information prior to 2008, he kinda didn’t.


Some speculation that zero had to be forced yesterday to knock down IS to save the 50K stuck on the mountain.

Tweets to #Iraq seem to agree that Maliki has flooded the Green Zone with troops loyal to him and Shia militia. Confused picture elsewhere.

This isn’t a military coup, it is a coup engineered by the PM.

Yep. Toppling Saddam was one of the worst foreign policy blunders orchestrated by the United States that I can think of.

Then we doubled down on the stupidity by ousting Mubarak and Kadaffy. At least they haven’t succeeded, yet, with Assad.

To my knowledge, ISIS hasn’t come up against Hezbollah once in Syria. Seems a pretty a strong indication of some understanding between Iran and ISIS.
