They should have continued into Lebanon and killed as many Islamofascists there as they could.

From the article:

The raid, which a US military official in Washington confirmed>

MEANS to me that the PRESIDENT approved it....

Question is...What would Obama have done?

“Global Jihad?”

I don’t know whether it’s the name of a faction or the JPost is distinguishing domestic terrorists from global terrorists.

From the article I like this phrase:

Global Jihad operatives

Probably building a homeless shelter for wayward jihadis.

That’s about 3-4 years later than it should have been (incursions into Syria, that is).

"terror targets possibly linked to the Global Jihad and Al Qaida."

Used a proper noun. Just a catch-all for all the other terrorist groups?

To me that means this group we’ve been allowing to exist while we used it to infiltrate our spies into other Syrian groups is no longer needed.
Good, very good. Hopefully we’re doing as well infiltrating Iran.

We should have carpet bombed the Bekaa valley as part of our initial drive into Iraq. As a message.

What would Syria have done? Send terrorists into Iraq for revenge? /s

Syria was taken out of the Axis of Evil, no?

These pursuits were probably mentioned as a possibility.

Note that Syria is not exactly mobilizing on the Iraqi border. They issue a mere "condemnation".

Hot pursuit!!

Of course the little problem of aiding and harboring terrorists is not mentioned.
