This has been the plan all along. Unfortunately for TPTB, Assad would not roll over in Syria. They still plan to get him eventually.

Next is Jordan, and then the big one - Saudi Arabia. Once the entire Middle East is run by radical jihadis, we will plenty of reason to launch WW3 there. We will have a monstrous, murderous enemy that we ourselves created.

Jordan is a lot tougher nut to crack and will bloody the nose of ISIS. If it looks like Jordan is in any danger of falling, Israel will defend them.

It's not the first time this has happened.

Look for the Israelis to take those “bombs in the basement” out. They will most likely need to use them.

People should take out their maps. If ISIS gets a corridor through Jordan, they're on the Med, unstoppable, and a close threat to Israel. Now, the Kurdish situation isn't factoring in, but when it does and spills into Turkey, that involves NATO.

What's left of the civilized world should get together and eliminate ISIS now, before the cancer spreads into other regions. They're a rogue terrorist group that seem to have their own agenda and could easily spread way beyond their mideast playground.

The media has sanitized this group by calling it ISIS (according to them, “I” is for “Iraq” and “S” is for “Syria”).

But the name was originally translated into English as ISIL, which is correct, because the last letter of the acronym, “S,” is for al Sham, a term that does not mean Syria, but Levant. So it’s the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. In other words, Jordan and the Mediterranean region.
