Iraqi local officials in Iraq’s town of al-Baghdadi have warned of another ISIS mass burning massacre. The terror organization surrounded a compound several days ago that houses more than 1000 families and burned 45 people alive.

“ISIS has killed more than 150 people from al-Obaid tribe...some of them were burned alive and some were beheaded...they were policemen...some of them fought against ISIS before,” said sheikh Mal Allah al-Obaidi, the head of the local council in the al-Baghdadi.

but first a focus group to check on the buzzwords and optics.

He would probably like that delay for sure. But honestly he would just buy his way out of there, with our money. So a bad idea on my part. I was envisioning a different outcome. But the worst possible outcome, for us, would probably be the reality.

before signing up for that.


Agreed, as far as enlisting, but once they are in, not much choice, they follow orders. Thank you.

God help the Marine who falls in ISIS’ hands.


I can’t recall the exact phrase, but earlier today, someone posted that he felt sorry for the ISIS guy that fell into the Marines’ hands.

Respectfully, I like that version, better.

Thank you.

Obama’s summit on “violent extremism” was no more than an extended “make nice to the Muzz” session.

Revernd Gramham called it the other day: “A storm is coming.”

Sounds like it’s arrived there....this will not be stopped, I believe, without prayers of God’s people...there’s an enemy behind this pushing it along.

...”How about we bring the troops home, put on our borders, ban Islam, deport Muslims? Let them kill each other there.”...

Yep...I don’t want our troops on their soil no matter what they’re doing to each other! We cannot send them into these barbaric lands with their hands tied as they are....

I mentioned to my daughter-in-law the other day that for the “first time in my life”, and we are military families, I would not today encourage any of my sons to sign up to fight in Oabma’s wars....in fact I’d do all I could to deter them, including kidnapping them and locking them up!

We simply cannot send them overseas to that God forsaken land ...we all know how these beasts are and capable of....so they have to ‘unleash’ our guys if they’re going to send them there.

Marines are too disciplined to go against the Geneva Convention but perhaps they should turn ISIS prisoners over to the Iraqis.

“Then he would order them to expose their necks to ISIS blades. What a POS.”

Wouldn’t be the first time. Remember ambassador Stevens?
First they disarmed them then they hung them out to die.

“Courageous” was another movie that I found to be marvelous, but practically no one saw.
