How long before this turns into the battle of Khe Sanh?
Not much news being allowed out.
Probably later tonight...
Father God,
We stand on Your promises in Psalm 91 for every man and woman in uniform. God keep His promises.
In Jesus name we pray. Amen
Psalm 91
1 Those who live in the shelter of the Most High
will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
2 This I declare about the Lord:
He alone is my refuge, my place of safety;
he is my God, and I trust him.
3 For he will rescue you from every trap
and protect you from deadly disease.
4 He will cover you with his feathers.
He will shelter you with his wings.
His faithful promises are your armor and protection.
5 Do not be afraid of the terrors of the night,
nor the arrow that flies in the day.
6 Do not dread the disease that stalks in darkness,
nor the disaster that strikes at midday.
7 Though a thousand fall at your side,
though ten thousand are dying around you,
these evils will not touch you.
8 Just open your eyes,
and see how the wicked are punished.
9 If you make the Lord your refuge,
if you make the Most High your shelter,
10 no evil will conquer you;
no plague will come near your home.
11 For he will order his angels
to protect you wherever you go.
12 They will hold you up with their hands
so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone.
13 You will trample upon lions and cobras;
you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet!
14 The Lord says, “I will rescue those who love me.
I will protect those who trust in my name.
15 When they call on me, I will answer;
I will be with them in trouble.
I will rescue and honor them.
16 I will reward them with a long life
and give them my salvation.”
Thank you!
As Chesty said “Poor Bastards, They have us surrounded!:
.... this time.
When you are only a couple of km from a much larger, well armed military force that has vowed to exterminate you I'd say there's a direct threat.
Are these US Marines being Micromanaged by Susan Rice and the White House ?
It takes a special kind of idiot to depart this earth as a failed suicide bomber.
Attempted? Attempted??? They're all dead, aren't they?
It's just so nerve-racking because of who is in charge of our military. Don't want another Benghazi.
BUMP
Just remember - there are no ground troops in Iraq.
I wonder if Obama set these Marines up? I wouldn’t doubt it.
I heard yesterday that IS seized al-Baghdadi. This is the very focal point of IA and they lost it. Yet, the news is that all is well. These are primary IA objectives: Hit - Haditha, which is closely associated w/ Ramadi - Fallujah. If al-Baghadidi is lost, right next to the major airbase, then, well, it’s great that eight bombers attacked the base and were defeated, but...
You have to wonder if these dudes have more than one tactical plan. They started the offensive yesterday with suicide bombers blowing up the police station, today they tried it at the base.
