ISIS is Obama.

"Time to drop a tactical nuke on this area"

How about this.

We announce that the next American who is beheaded will be followed by a neutron bomb attack targeting a ISIS stronghold.

Repeat until the killings are stopped.

We accept all his actions but none have asked the question if he is on our side.

If he is not on our side, whose side is he on?

Many have difficulty accepting the fraud, Clown Prince nobama.

I would be completely apoplectic,... “I don’t understand it.”

I wonder if the victims are not told they are about to die? Maybe they are told they are making a propaganda video.

I am familiar with the realities of combat operations, and running around with a bunch of trigger happy goofs who are in it for the money is a fast way to wind up with an empty bank account in the few days of life you have left.

Back when, I.E. 1974, in Jacksonville, NC, there were a good many people who would be getting discharged, soon, getting recruited. The "official" job description was as "pipeline guards" in the Middle East. The ones that followed that road far enough ended up in in Angola with the FNLA. At least one American was executed by the Cubans.

As I understand the law, US citizens are barred from enlisting in a foreign army, and working as mercenaries for foreign companies. Naturally, when the CIA approves, these laws fade away.

I like it. But Oisis will never do that.

[MarMema]

I like it.

According to one guy who escaped the hostages are repeatedly subjected to mock execution/beheading. It gets old after awhile.

Zer0 is laughing. He never meant for these air strikes to inflict damage.

[Cowboy Bob]

I've been thinking about the neutron bomb. Haven't heard much mention of it since the 80’s.

When will strong action be taken against these savages?

As with everything else, Obama will only take decisive action when and if it presents a political payoff for him. Right now, he has no incentive to destroy ISIS, regardless of what words he uses during speeches. Right now, he's only interested in doing the absolute minimum vs. ISIS to get that story off the front pages. The only issues Obama wants at the media forefront are "paycheck inequality" and "climate change." As for the Ebola outbreak, it will be carefully managed into a full-scale crisis in order for Obama to appear decisive in time for the November elections.

The President and Valjar will do nothing, as it would interfere with the President’s golf and fundraising schedule.

I hear they do these mock executions over and over again and the victim doesn’t know which time is real...at a point, I guess you just think it’s another mock one....that’s the one they show. Not the defiant one or the panic one....
