“To my surprise some Turkish gendarmes intervened and started shooting at the jihadists,”
the farmer said. “That’s the first time I have seen them doing that.”

Interesting.

Sounds like a lot of “workplace violence” going on over there.

Seems like they are praising the US military. Something they did not do for Bush. Maybe trying to get the idiot dems support for our upcoming election.

Yes they are. Sure, ISIS isn't really there in great numbers. But we are CLEARING the entire town out so we can put in a new golf course just for the President. Those bombs aren't being wasted. ; )

Monica Lewinsky blew the hell out of Bill Clinton, but he’s still with us, more’s the pity.

Air strikes are ineffective unless there are trained spotters imbedded in forward positions communicating with the pilots. Ordinarily Special Forces or trained CIA agents would be present. Its a good bet that some very brave Americans are currently serving with the Kurds trying to direct those strikes.

Maybe domestic political calculus in Turkey and America are driving them push off another genocide until after the American elections, and until after the Kurdish street protests can be put down in Turkey.

Blowing the hell out of them?

So our soldiers are gay?

GTF over yourself.

We have only performed 7 strikes in the last 24 hours.

That’s not at all like we are trying to wipe em out.

If there are still ISIS tanks and artillery on that hill, obviously we are not hitting it hard enough. Heinlein had the right idea:

Mike said thoughtfully, "Man, I don't think we had better hit that mountain again."

"Why not, Mike?"

"It's not there any longer."

If we had a real president we would be vaporizing the ISLAMIC STATE thugs. Cluster bomb the hell out of them. Send in the B52 with tons of bomblettes. Arm the kurds to the teeth. Send in the Marines and wipe out any thug hiding in a spider hole. Then again if we had a real president.....

Yep. Obama and the demos don’t want the photos of the children being slaughtered in the news before the elections.
