This is why ‘American Sniper’ has done so well. America CRAVES seeing what a REAL MAN and a LEADER looks like. One who exudes PATRIOTISM too. America doesn’t get ANY of those things from the current crew in the White House, so we have to go to the movies to experience it.

A month's worth of drone strikes would put a real crimp in their style. How come that's not in Obama's bag of tricks?

Princess Barry is intent on saving the taxpayer's money. If ISIS' oil revenue were to be interrupted, Obomba would have to send them more of our money.

Exactly.

And the Republican Leadership (read: McConnell and Boehner) were informed that 0bama was supplying ISIS / Al Nusra / Al Qaeda.

Because otherwise the hearings would be focused on WHY we were in Benghazi, not why we didn’t DEFEND our guys in Benghazi.

Rumor has it that King Abdullah is heterosexual. He looks it. His wife is young and very beautiful, too. As far as I know she has never equivocated about whether she was proud of her country.

Thanks much for all the info. I knew Turkey had moved towards militant Islam... but, had no idea it has gotten this bold with it.

As GWB used to say, “If you’re not with us? You’re agin us”.

Of course, I guess Obama would read all this and assume Turkey was “with him”.

Turkey has been backed down in the last couple of months because ISIS got out of control.

But having started out as Turkey’s puppet, they got enough arms, territory, oil, population, etc. to be largely self sufficient now.

Nonetheless, we need to hang the ISIS albatross around Turkey’s neck forever. No county should ever think they can get away with that cr*p again.

Actually no. The King’s mother was British. His mother was Princess Muna al-Hussein, nee: Antoinette Avril Gardiner. The King’s American wife, his fourth, is Queen Noor, born as Lisa Najeeb Halaby.

I happened to find something in Wikipedia, while I was researching the Jordanian Air Force’ capabilities. I have not seen this in news articles:

Apparently, U.S. special forces attempted on Jan. 1 to rescue Lt. al-Kasasbeh, but the US’ helicopters were driven off by heavy fire from ISIS.

I gather the World has accepted beheading as reasonable.

“World peace 1.20.09.” Liberals said so and put bumper stickers on vehicles.

See, the problem is that The POtuS we have is such a coward that he’s not really Muslim or Christian or anything in between. He keeps sucking up to leaders, but he has never yet shown that he is worthy of any respect from any country, including ours. I’d rather have someone who was predictable in his decisiveness than someone who is as wobbly as the POtuS. He is SCARY because he is such a coward.

Like other presidents, he has back problems, but his are caused from a yellow stripe down the length of it.

“ISIS IS Turkey.

Turkey supplies ISIS... Turkey is the buyer of ISIS’s oil.

ISIS is just a Turkish front group.”

And now the Turkish President (for life, it now seems) Erdogan has just moved into a new palace that he had built - the world’s largest, four times the size of Versailles.

Fit for a modern day Caliph.

I bet the plan is for Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi to die a glorious death as a martyr at some point, and for Erdogan to assume the burden of ruling all of Islam.

“Another video, titled Muslims’ Joy at Burning of Jordanian Pilot and published later by the group, sought to confirm earlier reports that IS used large viewing screens and movie projectors across Raqqa to play the barbaric clip of the pilot’s killing.

In the footage, members of the Raqqa crowd are briefly interviewed about the execution in a documentary-style, while the video plays in background. Among them a smiling child, not older than eight years old, is seen praising the murder.

I am curious, with those Jordanian air strikes, some IS turds are nothing but charred dust. How does charred dust deal with virgins? Just curious...
