Coalition of the les than willing?
GWB had over forty countries in his coalition, but then again he was hated by the World!

OMG. Seriously?!?! The asshat-in-chief was no doubt schooled by the NATO allies (when he could be bothered to be on time to meet them), yet the Times trumpets that HE “recruits” THEM? BARF.

Diplomats and defense officials from the United States, Britain, France, Australia, Canada, Germany, Turkey, Italy, Poland and Denmark huddled to devise a two-pronged strategy: strengthening allies on the ground in Iraq and Syria, while bombing Sunni militants from the air. Do we know for sure which side Turkey is on...???

The real punchline would probably be who this man thinks is our ally.

If you ask me, McVeigh parked his Ryder in front of the wrong building.
They have been asking for it since the Civil War, agitated against a peaceful solution after Secession and for conquest of the south, as well as freeing the slaves and then not repatriating them back to where they came from.
In short,responsible for the murder of millions of Americans by the Federal government and by the descendants of freed slaves, and our coming third world status.
A 150 year record of relentless smear attacks and propaganda against real Americans.
NYT OUT!!!

“Administration officials said support for moderate rebels in Syria is critical. This summer, President Obama set aside $500 million to train and support vetted members of the moderate opposition to Mr. Assad. Officials say they expect Congress to approve that request next month.
But even after that money is approved, American officials will face obstacles in strengthening the Free Syrian Army, the moderates of choice for the United States. This is going to take months, one Defense Department official said on Friday.”
I can't believe this. ISIS came out of the supposedly “moderate” FSA. They pretend to be moderate when they are asking for U.S. money and arms. Then when they get the funding they use it to attack.

This is great news!!!
9 Allies!! Really, really awesome! Much better than anything Bush was able to put together! He only had 45 allies!

So I guess the libs in Britain won’t be laughing at Poland now like they did when they were part of the much larger coalition Bush built?

Were we worthy for this fight we wouldn’t have to “recruit” anyone. They’d naturally follow the Winner.
