Jordan confirmed on Wednesday that “The Jordanian King Abdullah II will participate personally on Thursday in conducting air strikes against the shelters of the terrorist ISIL organization to revenge the execution of the Jordanian pilot Maath al-Kassasba by the ISIL.”
Media outlets reported the King Abdullah II as saying “The war against ISIL will not end and we will fight them in their shelters.”
I bet there’s a phone conversation where Barry Soetoro is pressuring him not to retaliate ....
If you mess with his authority (by messing with his military) ... that’s a line you don’t cross. ISIS messed up there!
Leadership. Material.
Meanwhile king Hussein doesn’t give a Dang about what IS does.
“Does anyone recall our illustrious leader being all picky about using ISIL instead of ISIS and actually supporting them? I do.”
Yes, he refers to it that way very purposefully. ISIL stands for Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant. The Levant is the historic name given to the entire region east of the Mediterranean from Egypt, east to Iran and to Turkey and effectively leaves the State of Israel out of the picture.
This has to say a lot to Jordan’s fighting forces. The king will personally stand up for them. Wow. They may be Muslims and/or pagans, but they know Loyalty.
The king goes to war with his men....time to get medieval....

The United Arab Emirates has suspended its air attacks against the Islamic State in Syria since the capture of a Jordanian pilot who was burned alive by the jihadi group, it has emerged.
US officials confirmed that the UAE, one of the four Arab states in the anti-Isis coalition, had ceased its participation because of concerns over a lack of contingency plans to rescue downed aircrew.
The news came as Jordan pledged to strike back hard at Isis over the brutal murder of the pilot, Muadh al-Kasasbeh, but against a background of concern that after an initial backlash to satisfy calls for revenge, popular opposition to the campaign may grow in the kingdom.
Or even biblical... this is the sort of stuff you read about in the Old Testament.

“The king goes to war with his men....time to get medieval....”
They are fighting an opponent mired in the 7th Century, after all.
And its Starfleet!
From Wikipedia:
Personally, instead of even thinking about arming the puppet fascists in Kiev, maybe we ought to arm Jordan with all the bombs they ask for.
Maybe he can talk Obama into going with him...
