Pentagon says no.
Pentagon is denying they are bombing. If that is true, NY Time may have jumped the gun and ruined this operation.
The Arab Spring has sprung.
Failure of this operation is no option.
I sure hope they are. I’d doubt it, though.
I know the Kurds and this minority group asked Iraq for help, and the Iraqis came and dropped off water, but they had no more military support to give.
So I’d say it’s Iraqis, but somebody must have made Bambi cut loose with the equipment and materiel.
I would like to see us get fifty thousand of these slime on one place, and splatter their guts over every fencepost for a mile around. More rubble, less trouble. Let’s have an Islamist bloodbath like none since the days of Genghis Khan.
Quaqmire.
Obama creates a disaster then tries to get credit for doing a small cleanup on aisle 5.

Anything Obama touches turns to dung. Then he wants applause for waiting a year or two, then getting some paper towels and picking up a portion of that dung.
Pathetic.
They are denying that they did this. Maybe someone else did it...or maybe not. Who knows anymore? Truth is gone.
obama just double crossed the people he said he was going to support
oh, boy, it’sa going to be a baddddd summer...
I don’t believe it. Why would Obama want to bomb those he trained and armed. In other words, where it benefit Obama?
The NY Times wrote this to focus test the idea. Their mission is to provide cover and air support for Obama.
Quagmire!

Air power could solve a LOT of problems domestically too.
Baghdad (AFP) - A spokesman for the Kurdish peshmerga force said US warplanes on Thursday bombed Islamic State jihadist targets in two areas of northern Iraq.
“F-16s first entered Iraqi airspace on a reconnaissance mission and are now targeting Daash (Islamic State) in Gwer and in the Sinjar region,” Holgard Hekmat told AFP around 2100 GMT.
Pentagon spokesman Rear Admiral John Kirby said that reports of US air strikes were false. “No such action taken,” he said on Twitter.
The Kurdish official said: “They just struck the bridge linking Mosul to Gwer. The bridge had been used by Daash to channel reinforcements and ammunition to Gwer.”
It isn’t us. Could be the Iranians, though.
He does this a lot.
Might be Iraqi fighters. They have a few F16s and Sukhoi 25s.
shocking! /s
