Maybe we could put out the fire by bombing it with Heinz ketchup ?

I can't see ISIS as oil men. Knowing them they probably beheaded anyone who could actually operate the plant. May it blow up in their face. Literally.

Send the Whale Wars attack group against ISIS. Let Animal Planet broadcast it Pay-Per-View.

What is their motivation? To strike fear into the Great Satan? Even the LoFos are going to get PO’d about this, forcing the Great Commie to take military action against them.

The free world lost the war with ISIS a long time ago. And it will continue until the free world get off its ars and kills all the ISIS bastards. By air and land, take no prisoners.

Probably just a big “thank you” shout out from ISIS to their boi, Johnny Kerry, who recently proclaimed that the Bible says Americans need to buy carbon credits to protect the Muzzies from “global warming”.

The thought or sight (and sound) of a fellow human being’s filmed beheading by another human being must be confusing to them.

"Islamic State militants have set fire to Iraq’s largest oil refinery, escalating tensions in the region and raising questions about how much control ISIS could potentially gain over the world’s oil supply."

Refineries produce gasoline and various other compounds and fuels from crude oil. Destroying a refinery is not going to effect the world's oil supply. But I'm sure it will effect that region's supply of fuel for cars trucks etc.. Now if ISIS started destroying oil wells ...

Killing reporters, aid workers, and burning stuff. How fearsome! Killing innocent doesn’t make you a warrior, it makes you lower than a pig. Jihad Joe’s are the most pathetic group of wimps on earth. They can’t point a gun unless they have a woman or child as a shield. The only victories they can claim are against unarmed towns in the middle of nowhere.

I hope the internet mocks them everywhere they go. It would effectively neutralize any chance at propaganda. Punch em right in their tiny-dick pride. They can’t even get a woman to talk to them without a slave collar or sticking a gun in their face. They probably need slave girls to change their diapers.

We’d be better off attacking Iran.
