I wish America would load up the Jordanian Air Force with napalm. It would be outstanding to see these ISIS bastards being toasted alive.

Gen Jbour, 20% is not enough!
The enemy must be wiped out 100%.

Could it be, that all it takes to wipe out the vermin is a smartly led coalition of regional forces under the guidance and assistance of US?!
If so...what have we been waiting for?

Jordan is getting serious and doing their part,
Fox News Channel is on this...this morning,.
To: Awgie
I’ve wondered a couple of things.
How was Jordan able to wipe out their hideouts in such short order and America and its so-called coalition could not?
How could they launch 56 air strikes in 3 days and nobody else could carry this out?
This makes me wonder if there is deliberate delaying. Is this commander-in-chief stalling, warning the enemy, dithering and intentionally not coming down hard on these savages?
To: FlingWingFlyer
That is a brilliant idea - 200,000 eyes for an eye....

The administration calls it "strategic Patience"

The answer is a 4 letter word — I R A N.
Destroying ISIS means that the Shite Iran wins, which no Sunni Arab country would want.

I doubt there’s much hand wringing over target selection, which is something the US has done since Vietnam.
To: JudyinCanada
At the beginning of the recent campaign against ISIS, obama made it clear he would be choosing the targets. In retrospect it appears he is throwing the game - in this case the war.

Wring hands over target selection and pulled punches started under another dem president.
Remember Korea?

Not quite that old, but I remember reading something to that effect.
To: magooey
Oh no. Obama is choosing the targets? No military experience, no brains, and he’s outright stated that he would side with muslims if push came to shove....that explains it. He’s losing intentionally.
To: Ernest_at_the_Beach
I sure hope they don’t break any rules of engagement!

Jordan isn't overly concerned with collateral damage.

>Hes losing intentionally.<
.
Do his military commanders know this?
If so, one must wonder whose side they’re on.
