And Trump goes up another three points in the polls. Hellary wants to “understand” ISIS dudes and give them jobs so they’ll be good people.

The whole thing is sickening.

They should have been hit, collateral damage or not, with such a BRUTE and BRUTAL barrage of sorties after this event that this thing would be over.

Any military guys? What would be a barrage. Sorties seems to be wrong, as we are not barraging them with sorties but they would be the delivery means.

Bombs? Missiles? jets? tanks? get my military retaliation statement mixed up all the time.

I’ll bet Obama and the state dept are very busy right now trying to hush this up.

The DNC plays this out as the “New Normal”. Nothing to see. Move along. Not procured in Benghazi weapons warehouses. Just a bottle of French’s Mustard found near an unexploded ordinance courtesy of George Bush.

Is that a red line?

I can remember when our diplomats warned Sadat that use of WMD’s against the coalition would draw the harshest possible response...which is code for a lumpy sheet of glass.

[US troops tested it and received an initial reading for a chemical agent they believe is mustard. ]

Uhh, ‘mustard’ is not a problem, and is great on hamburgers, hot dogs and used when grilling chicken.

Mustard GAS, OTOH...........

Great job CNN - great staff you’ve got there. No wonder they can’t find anything wrong with Obama.

I remember seeing a video of Iraqi trucks moving the stuff to Syria before out attack. So I’m sure it’s available in either country.

'GAS' CNN - DUH. This is like 5th graders reporting "news".



I didn't know you could shave with mustard - I'm shaving with butter now.

Well, I don’t know if you remember, but I recall when ISIS was first ramping up, I saw on the news a long convoy of ISIS vehicles and troops on a highway, lined up as far as you could see. All that was needed was a few A-10 Warthogs and you could have taken care of ISIS right there.

Another thing Obama and his apologists do that infuriates me is that they talk and brag about occasionally taking out ISIS leaders. NO, that is not going to get the job done, as another leader just steps up. You have to take out the rank and file. The leaders cannot do anything if all their troops are dead. It seems so simple, but these people cannot seem to understand it, or refuse to implement it for PC reasons.

Another option if you can catch them out in the open, is to drop a MOAB on them and be done with it.

My guess would be Syrian stockpiles. Supposedly, Khadaffi destroyed all his (2003?). Of course, that doesn’t mean some didn’t survive.

MOAB i know! :)

Yeah, i remember that convoy too. The inaction had led to horror upon horror upon horror.

Yet he has not been dragged from office and the half dead hillary is still quite in this race.

Makes me want to vomit.
