I’ve wondered a couple of things.

How was Jordan able to wipe out their hideouts in such short order and America and its so-called coalition could not?

How could they launch 56 air strikes in 3 days and nobody else could carry this out?

This makes me wonder if there is deliberate delaying. Is this commander-in-chief stalling, warning the enemy, dithering and intentionally not coming down hard on these savages?

The answer is a 4 letter word — I R A N.

Destroying ISIS means that the Shite Iran wins, which no Sunni Arab country would want.

I doubt there’s much hand wringing over target selection, which is something the US has done since Vietnam.

At the beginning of the recent campaign against ISIS, obama made it clear he would be choosing the targets. In retrospect it appears he is throwing the game - in this case the war.

Jordan isn't overly concerned with collateral damage.

The last thing we need to do is send our troops in. Obama would abandon them like in Afghanistan. It took months for him to commit the troops needed when the generals said they were needed.

By committing our troops we are in effect abandoning them and wasting their lives. Obama will just pull out without finishing the job. Besides ISIS is a deterrent to Iran.

We need to cut off all weapon sales to muslems everywhere period. Let them use up their weapons fighting each other. When they have depleted themselves we go in and finish them for good.

EVERYTHING obama does either:
a) Weakens America/Americans
b) Distances America's allies
c) Strengthens America's enemies
d) Serves Islam
e) Harms Israel
Or some combination of the above.
There are NO counter examples.

It's Obama's new strategy....called "Strategic Pause"....announced a couple of days ago.

Bingo! If our satellites can see you working in your garden well enough to identify you, and they can, then isn’t it obvious?
