As ISIS makes inroads into Libya, officials in Rome are panicking about an Islamic State just across the sea—but have no idea how to combat the crisis. ROME — Last weekend in Italy, as the threat of ISIS in Libya hit home with a new video addressed to “the nation signed with the blood of the cross” and the warning, “we are south of Rome,” Italian prime minister Matteo Renzi shuttered up the Italian embassy in Tripoli and raised his fist with the threat of impending military action. Never mind that Italy has only 5,000 troops available that are even close to deployable, according to the defense ministry. Or that the military budget was cut by 40 percent two years ago, which has kept the acquisition of 90 F-35 fighter jets hanging in the balance and left the country combat-challenged to lead any mission—especially one against an enemy like the Islamic State.

As well they should.
The only was to stop ISIS is to offer them jobs.

A bunch of jets, lots of fuel air explosives and seal up your ports. That’s for starters. Also, anyone who has entered the country over the last 6 months with names like Achmed, go find and deport immediately.
The they should stop letting them in and stop them at sea and turn them around back to their country.
Notice how Malta is not being overrun and that is nearer to N Africa.
Shagging shells down at the artillery range?
and don’t ever get on your high horse about what they do as there were horrible violence in the Crusades. Now if we can have some social justice and help them with jobs and job training they will forget about the past and stop killing us, because the two airheads who have their college social justice ignorant minds told us so.

I assume Italy is a NATO alley, this could fire up into something pretty quickly.

Actually, all very good advice.
Italy can expect no help from our fearless leader. He hates Italy because most are Christian.
If the savages get to Italy they move on to France, and then to England. Soon after, to the USA.
Better go visit the coliseum and Venice now before the bearded vermin take over.
Interesting typo. Perhaps more true than what you intended.
oops, I didn’t catch it... lol
I never thought I’d say this but I think Italy might have better “leadership” than we do - at least at the present time.
Penicillin for Staphylococcus.
Strychnine for Rattus norvegicus.
Thermonuclear for Muzzius throatslittus.
Every infestation has a cure.
“Notice how Malta is not being overrun and that is nearer to N Africa.”
Malta has 6,000 Muslims and always had a close relationship with Libyan Muslims. They dominate the Islam in Malta: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Islamic_Call_Society
The US couldn’t do much worse with Captain Francesco Schettino as President than Obama.
Oh, lovely. And I am planning a trip to Italy in April.
Malta has just about 3,000 muslims and only just over 2,000 are not Maltese. There is only one mosque there which muslims complain about.
I have family who live there and come from there and it is very rare to ever see a muslim and Malta is one of the most Christian countries in the world.
