ISIS attacks Iraq air base; 300 Marines could be trapped; Pentagon says no big deal
Pentagon says no big deal
And we're supposed to believe this?
Wonder what they are saying on the Iraqi Air Base.

What are they saying at the airbase? I’ll tell you.
They are tattooing “300” on their biceps, and making jokes about fighting in the shade. You cannot imagine how pleased those Marines are to be thought of as “the 300”.
They’ll be just fine,,, No thanks to Obama, but they will.
Think of it this way. Two old retired seals in Benghazi held off this ISIS horde all night with no support. Multiply their downrange violence by about 150, and add in crew served weapons. ISIS doesn’t have the stones, odds are they wont ever attack in force. They know Marines and will avoid that site like the plague except for random suicide bombs at the perimeter, or a mortar here n there.
“And we’re supposed to believe this?”
Yes.
Wonder what they are saying on the Iraqi Air Base.
Probably,”Send some more.”
The Marines are probably saying “They’ve got us surrounded again, the poor bastards.”
“300 Marines could be trapped; Pentagon says no big deal”
Trap 300 angry USMC grunts lying in wait for you. Ones who know that if they surrender (already unthinkable) they are beheaded. Why, you’ve practically already won./
We have so many assets that we can maintain in the air, we can land the 82nd, we have Tomahawks, the existing Marines and Iraqi elements in place are already strong, and ISIS is not a great fighting force anyway.
There is no Soviet Union or Red China threatening us or inhibiting whatever options are available to us and limiting the assets that we can commit, or the violence of the protective bubble that we can put over the Marines, or what we can move into to attack ISIS from another direction.
I wouldn’t think this is a very serious threat and it sure isn’t a last stand.
As far as I know, we have enough control that we can still have access to our area and move in men and materials.
ISIS could take the Pentagon in an afternoon with their sissified cowardice. I actually am serious. I bet 250 ISIS fighters could take the Pentagon and hold it hostage within 30 minutes.
Sitting her in the comfort and security of my home I feel our Marines would love to pick ‘em off like a carnival game. However, if it was my son, husband, brother, etc. over there I’d be worried sick.
