——US forces had scrambled drones and Apache helicopters to assist Iraqi forces to repel the attack but the fighting was over by the time they arrived——

Translation: Lawyerly dithering prevents fighting and thus saves lives.

Are ISIS oil tank trucks being bombed?

How about supply routes?

Did Obama know where the hostages were?

Could the US military wipe the floor with this JV team in a matter of days?

Is Assad fighting against ISIS?

Inquiring minds would like some answers.

What are the Marines doing in Iraq at this point? They say training Iraqis, but its too late, they have already lost their country. The Marines are sitting on a relatively small spot in Iraq and the other main locations are lost or in the process of falling to ISIS. I say get the hell out of there. This is nuts.

There is a rise in the beliefs expounded by a 1960s islamic Radical Quto which he outlined in his book Milestones. its belief is that Muslim religion has been dead for centuries because of Godless Ignorance (jahiliyya) and must be reconquered by secular Islam. No wonder Obama supports the ISIL existence - it is the area of the Levant, whereby Israel does not exist. does anyone remember the assassination of Egypt’s Anwar Sadat - by a radical of the beleifs espoused by what is now called Qutbism. Oddly America’s resurgence of the 60s mentally has come to fruition, the same is happening in other parts of the world - rstlessness amongst the adherents to Islam - where is the 12th Imam the promised one whom was supposed to be here in 2014, he never showed up, so now their is a belief that in order for the 12th Imam to show up, massive destruction must take place in the world - in Islamic countries and in the west. the killing will happen between the religious factions, the leadership of the Arab countries and the west, where the tenants of Islam are mocked. Yes it is coming to America, become Obama believes as they do himself. a police state - no an Islamic state were Jews, and Christians, conservatives, children - anybody that has opposed Obama. Unfortunately for Obama has has not been able todeliver on everything he promised. The gay marriage law is a facade - the gays will be registered and the Obamites will now where they are and the gays will die alongside the Jews, the Christians and the conservatives. Net Neutrality is just a way to have people registered for the new world order under the guise of Obama. Some will sy tinfoil hat time. Look it is happening in Europe the Muslims whom were invited into the countries of sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland are rising up to declare war on the West. france, Great Britain, Germany and many others have and will see the same issues happen. It is a call to rise up against the West . In order for it to work in the USA - guns have to be outlawed. families have to be destroyed by gay marriage and the healthcare system has to be destroyed. Just wait net neutrality, gun laws and all other issues will have to be placed in effect, the Islamic cultists will flood America and America will be in a chaotic war, the Obama Administration will capitulate and Obama will be declared the 12th Imam - the anti christ.

when one looks at the 63 commie manifesto and then thinks about how bozo has acted then they have nearly completed their manifesto, queer marriage, queers, cross dressing, the media lying, social other issues, foreign policy even with now Cuba.

What is even more pathetic is that we get a handful on here who actually have no problem with homosexual marriage, open borders, lesser military and foreign policy. They are all shooting for the commie manifesto too and either know they are or just too dumb to understand what they are helping.

Result of Obama’s Foreign Policy debacle:

...(song) You put your right foot in, you put your right foot out, you put your right foot in and you shake it all about, you do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself about, that's what it's all about!

Massive miscalculation on the part of Barry. If US troops come to harm, it will be on Barry's head yet again!

The anti-Christ will come from the Old Roman Empire. Kenya was never a part of the Old Roman Empire.

How is it even possible that a group can organize, take much territory, and not be pushed back? In such a short time.
