Rep Duncan Hunter was quoted by the Washington Examiner on the King’s meeting with American legislators today:
“He’s angry,” Hunter said of the king. “They’re starting more sorties tomorrow than they’ve ever had. They’re starting tomorrow. And he said, ‘The only problem we’re going to have is running out of fuel and bullets.’”
Jordanian spokesman have described that their response will be “earthshaking”, which sounds like aerial bombardment to me. The King himself is an Air Force guy, so this would be a natural way to vent some rage on a target set. They will probably need targeting info as well as ammo, fuel and maintenance support, but it sounds like they have fighting spirit.
Also, ISIS did not just fall off the turnip truck - they are essentially al Queada in Iraq, regrouped after Obama released them from Camp Bucca Confinement Facility. They were once led by a Jordanian from Zarqa - Zarqawi. These folks Great, Great Grandparents knew of each other. The tribe of the woman hung today is from just over the border in Anbar Province of Iraq.
This could be the start of a high intensity tribal vendetta. Some tribes may give up their criminals rather than go to war over them. Jordan has deep insight, and intelligence capability deep inside these communities. Jordan might have some sway with the new King in Saudi Arabia as well, but that we will have to see.
All in all, recent developments confirm my prediction of 2015 as “The Summer of Death” for ISIS. They may not have to wait until Summer after all, but more is on the way then, such as the Battle of Mosul.
If his Dad was president we wouldn’t have got to this..
President Hunter would have stood up to the islamic terrorists and annihilated them years before this..
His Dad was the one who built the fence on our southern border and wanted it completed to keep out all intruders..
“He’s angry,” Hunter said of the king. “They’re starting more sorties tomorrow than they’ve ever had. They’re starting tomorrow. And he said, ‘The only problem we’re going to have is running out of fuel and bullets.’”

If “Mom Jeans” in the WH won’t supply what Jordan needs, maybe Japan is mad enough to help Jordan with some funds. Evidently, also per interview on FOX with Hunter, King Abdullah is upset with all the ‘red tape’ in obtaining what he needs via the Mom Jeans administration.
Very insightful. Thanks - keep your observations coming.
