WASHINGTON—Foreign fighters are streaming into Syria and Iraq in unprecedented numbers to join Islamic State or other extremist groups, including at least 3,400 from Western nations among 20,000 from around the world, U.S. intelligence officials say in an updated estimate of a top terrorism concern.
Intelligence agencies now believe that as many as 150 Americans have tried and some have succeeded in reaching in the Syrian war zone, officials told the House Homeland Security Committee in testimony prepared for delivery on Wednesday. Some of those Americans were arrested en route, some died in the area and a small number are still fighting with extremists.

Maybe if Obama hadn’t been on his high horse all this time and paid attention to what was going on. . . .
How big are we going to let IS get before we get serious about taking them out? January 2017 can’t come fast enough.
a GREAT Caption in that one!!
tis a shame that Obie cant come out of the Mooselim Closet and go fight against those who defame the prophet of islam....
what a drone target .....
imagine the ODDS made in Obama Pools around the world
When I see these terrorists lined up on the road going from town to town I have to ask myself, “where are the A-10’s”, what better time to send them to their chosen place for the afterlife then when lined up on a road between towns!
Just a few thousand “misguided” people joining ISIS. Nothing to see here. They don’t “represent” Islam.
It’s just random guys getting together to do random stuff toghether...nothing here get back to real stuff like Global Warming.
Freegards

Bush had these barbarians defeated and now we have an Arab summer.
Pray America wakes up
I see that burning the Jordanian pilot to death and killing the female aid worker did nothing to stop the flow. After all, burning someone to death is not Islamic. (Bull crap)
20,000? Nothing compared to what comes across our southern border.
I wonder if the Kurds and are takin’ volunteers like the Daesh? I saw a story of one vet workin with’em. d:^)
I’m not sure we are capable of electing a president that would unleash our military in a way to do what’s necessary.
I believe the last thing that we did which resembled ‘total war’ was when we created the “Highway of Death” with the Iraqis going out of Kuwait. They sure as hell got what was coming to them!
A lot of people raised hell, just because of that....
A handful of Mothers Of All Bombs—and they think they’re in paradise, every civilised person in the world is happy.
Everyone’s happy. It’s a solid win-win.
Oh yeah, rats. I keep forgetting Barry .....
It’s too bad someone can’t reactivate the South African / Rhodesian “Executive Outcomes” mercenaries and turn them loose on this situation.
“They don’t “represent” Islam.”
Perhaps not, but they sure are about to.
Let them go. It means fewer among us. Don’t let them return. It’s easier to eliminate them while gathered and contained in one area.
