As if it’s just Liberals who are hypocrites. The outcry of the West right now is that Russia sent aprox. 300 convoys into Ukraine to deliver food without the permission of the central government. That deserves sanctions but bombing runs over Syria, Libya etc is to be lauded? The moral high ground has been lost and this foreign policy is sheer incompetence on display

Attention ISIS leaders!
You might want to be in your bunkers next Wednesday at noon local time.
P.S.
I am really displeased with you guys.

Why discriminate and target only the Seniors? Like a termite mound, you gotta get in there and destroy all the larvae too... Bibi can give some pointers.

If you’re an ISIS leader all you need to know is that it’s time to move.

“Decimate” is the wrong term as it means to cull 1 out of 10, at random. Erradicate, Annihilate, or Obliterate would be better word choices. Or... kill all of them, their wives, their brothers and sisters, son and daughters... hell, take out their goats too... total war. Make the whole Fertile Crescent sterilized glass.

It’s a bluff. Obama isn’t going to kill his Muslim brothers. He wants them to bring the caliphate to the U.S.,through the Mexican border...

I swear if Obama was Pres during WW II, we’d see the headline “Allies Set to Invade Normandy on June 6th”.

Why would that be the case? Did bin Laden move around constantly? No. He stayed at Abbottabad for years. Moving around is a problem for high-level people. Too small a security detail leaves them vulnerable to enemy units and bandits. Too big a detail and aerial reconnaissance leads to air attack.

Our administration is insane. Tell your enemy in war time exactly what you are going to do next.

Unless of course they are for the other side.

Bomb the terrorists, not the families. And arms the Iraqi, Kurds and Syrian rebels to defeat ISIS.

Let's warn them!

Yes, exactly!

Why announce our plans to the enemy? Sheer stupidity, but what do we expect from the idiots in this administration?

Did FDR contact the Germans in 1944 and say, “Hey, we’re going to land troops on the coast of France on June 6th.”

It’s a bluff, so Obozo doesn’t look “weak.” There may be a couple of pin-prick attacks here and there, but nothing decisive. Main objective is to use these guys to get rid of Assad. Gotta get that pipeline through Syria.

Good thing this will be a surprise attack. They will never prepare for this.
