The ignoramus might be able to do something with air strikes while these terrorists are moving by the highways, but once they’re fighting in the cities the only thing that can stop them will be boots on the ground, and there hasn’t been much indication far that the Iraqi forces can or will do that.
But that opportunity if probably already lost.
Obama noted that it seems something has gone awry...”kinetically”...in the...”overseas contingency operation”.
The Obama Administration will label their response a “tentative preemption intervention” or such.
Meanwhile, has anyone considered that perhaps Obama was sandbagged in Syria. Responding to ever more requests for arms, training and yes money that was stockpiled by the rebels for this ISIS/ISIL operation...???
That’s the $492 million dollar question it seems.
Do not allow Obama to deflect attention from Obamacare. We must walk and chew gum at the same time.
Something tells me “short-term” means maximum expenditure of blood & treasure for little or no results.
Obama simply needs to sign an executive order stating that nobody can own a gun in Iraq.
You can bet Iran is definitely looking for a way to stir up shit with the U.S. Because we have a weakling POS for a pResident.
I would be in favor of this plan if he confined his recruiting to Obama bundlers.
Don’t care. Not one more drop of US blood for that shit hole. I spent 13 months there that I will never get it back. Almost bought it a few times. Was lucky. Screw them all.
