They totally ignore the fact that this is a RELIGIOUS thing for them, not money or jobs. They believe in their silly-assed 72 virgin-filled afterlife!
clueless libs just cant grasp the concept of someone fighting due to their beliefs.

can comprehend, which is a pretty narrow and simplistic.
You know it's bad when you're rocking the naughty librarian look and all you inspire is contempt.
Global midnight basketball and goat sexin.
The porch light is on but nobody is at home.
Our lib pals have no trouble envisioning Christians living their beliefs, even though the former have horribly warped ideas about the latter.
So when a religious hate squad actually DOES show up in the world, what do our lib pals do?

nailed it, + gotta love the giant fake “ I’m smart” glasses

Bingo!

I call BS. The real problem is that these ISIS murderers have low self esteem. We should send all of our college professors over there to help build up their self esteem.
America deserves what she gets by continually voting in these idiots, sigh.

Is there something wacky in the state departments water that make these people lose their minds? Jen Psaki is a prime example.
Jobs? Really? When Daesh combatants can take what they want by force, including sex slaves?
Communist infiltration of the State Department and Academia: a gift that just keeps on giving.
Perhaps send to them awards for their misplaced shop class skills?
Round them all up and make them sweep streets under armed guard. Anything less of a “jobs program” would fail to deal with Daesh.
