Actually that’s a total of 12000 ISIS in various places, not all in one place.
In addition to the embassy people, we have thousands of contractors who all have to get the heck out of there.
Where did that flight originate?
Just diverted.
Yes that would be nice, and we Used to have fully funded and arrayed A-10’s.
It’s all about the “optics.” The media can’t report this crisis just yet — Obama is still relaxing in Palm Springs. When he is good and ready to leave, they’ll breathlessly start their coverage with “President Obama cutting short his California vacation and returning to Washington on Air Force One amid unconfirmed reports of attacks in Iraq!” This will allow the low-information voter to get the full impact of Obama’s selflessness and sacrifice.
No good. Kept going North.
Mr. GG2 says the only 747’s Boeing ever delivered to Atlas were freighters so he thinks if they are sending one in they plan to probably pack as many people people as possible in there and then get the heck out. Cattle car.
GTFO and let the muzzys sort it out.
I’m jealous :D
Looks like that one didn’t land... changed course and is headed north now. It seemed to originate in the dessert SE of Baghdad... maybe it’s taking folks outa there.
The ISIS has been armed and financed by the US, NATO, and Saudi Arabia for the past three years to fight Uncle Scam's proxy war against Syria. This attack into Iraq is part of that proxy war. The Iraqi Army has been ordered to stand down by the same people that run the ISIS.
Whatever is going on we can be sure its bad. Every channel is running OJ, Bush 41 or some BS special. Not a word about the fact that Bagdad is under attack. We have been to very cable news channel.
I’m trying not to think that they waited too long and we have several thousand people trapped in the Green Zone with 100 Marines to protect them.
That, sadly, makes 100% sense.
You’re probably correct, JennysCool. EVERYTHING this Administration does (or doesn’t do) is ORCHESTRATED to suit their political agenda.
Quick! Fly the “gay” flag! Then they’ll like us and stop... /S
“Too late Alamo”, man that sounds grim.
