The government of Italy appears to be taking seriously the threats posed by the Islamic State (ISIS) to its nation. Italian officials said on Monday that they are considering sending 5,000 troops into Libya to combat the country’s burgeoning jihadist presence. In a recent video purportedly produced by the Islamic State’s Libya affiliate, the group slaughtered twenty-one Christians and vowed to seek out Rome as its next target. “And we will conquer Rome, by Allah’s permission, the promise of our prophet, peace be upon him,” a North American English-accented militant leader said after his comrades slaughtered the Christian hostages. Italian Defense Minister Robert Pinotti said that the 5,000 troops were ready and willing to lead a unilateral mission if necessary. Prime Minister Matteo Renzi said on Monday that “the proposal is to wait, so the U.N. Security council can work with a bit more conviction on Libya” in reaching a diplomatic accord, the Associated Press reported. The Italian head of state said that the U.N. should recruit “all the players, the local tribes, African Union countries, Arab countries, the Europeans” to fight ISIS in Libya.

Quick question:
If ISIS is operating freely in Libya...and Egypt is making air strikes in Libya...and Italy is preparing too...
Doesn’t Libya lack sovereignty in every way? IOW it is a failed state. Touted as one of Barry’s great success stories...just forget the small details.
Isn’t Italy a NATO nation? If so, Obama may be pushed into the ring, whether he wants to fight or not.
0bama was ISIS’s Air Force in Libya.
If there’s anyone you don’t want to fight with, it’s an Italian woman.
For sure.
Line up all those Italian mothers along the border, tell them they need to stop the invasion to protect their sons, and that’s the end of ISIS.
If things come to battle would it be the 3rd or 4th carthegenic war?
Quisling? There was a time when I donned the tinfoil hat, now I'm sot so sure.
Starting to fell like—I don;t know—July, 1914 or so.
ISIS is skillfully drawing the moths to a flame.
WE better be thinking two or three steps ahead and be prepared to unleash hell on ISIS.
But with Dempsey and Obama, that would be wishful thinking.
Obama has been aiding and abetting ISIS and AL Qaeda since day one of his Presidency.
The picture is just coming into focus now.
“WE better be thinking two or three steps ahead and be prepared to unleash hell on ISIS.”
Unfortunately, the plotting and planning against us has been going on for at least 8 decades, and are more than 2-3 steps behind. I’m not just talking about ISIS.
iraq 
afgahnistan 
They are...terrifying...the terrorists....
ISIS merely needs to use the BRAIN of a specially trained camel to destroy the Tornado aircraft on the ground! WE ARE DOOMED! DOOMED I TELL YOU, BY THEIR SUPERSCIENCE AND DEVOTION TO THE HIGH HOLY ALLAH: O

No, no, no, no, new, new, newwww....he will don only what he wants to do, with the entire cheering section backing his moves....
Yes, that’ was the topic last week: a failed state that Barry touted as a success story. Good one, youngster....
They are too terrifying to behold.....
Our Barry is in change, Insha’Allah!!
as i have said many times, THE EYE-TALIANS ARE TERRIFYING TO TERRORISTS everywhere....
Rome, we have a problem...
52% of Italian men still live with their mothers.

“America is no longer the world’s superpower. ‘CHANGE’.”
Yep, only CHINA can afford to finance a war, and would profit greatly from control of the Libyan oil fields.
My guess is they’ll use Egypt though.
A NATO member would be complicated. Especially if China wanted it’s military to get a little practice in.
