Given who is in charge of it, shouldn’t it be MoS?

Ministry of State..

No, they did NOT remove them from Iraq. Did you even read the story?

The U.S. contractors are at Balad to help the Pentagon prepare the facilities for the delivery
of the F-16 aircraft the Obama administration has agreed to provide the Iraqi government.

Exactly. Some need to still wake up to that.

1,700 beheaded. It’s staggering to imagine that scale of barbaric evil.

Meanwhile. .I take it as a good sign we’ve not heard anything from Ms. Power. Maybe it means she’s not doing anything ;)

Nice of him to drop off presents for the terrorists.

Too bad the soldiers couldn’t learn from Mossad: profile, then S,S,S.

I always thought Iraq should have gone with the three state solution and let UN blue helmets try to pacify de-militarialized zones between them. Parliamentary is for civilized people.

” - - - Just unbelievable. And Obama is dragging his feet. - - - “

No, this is very believable, as Obama always drags his feet.

Obama always acts opposite to what his US Military Personnel advise, never takes responsibility of any blunders that he makes, and then leaves his employees to die on the battlefields caused by his blunders.

REMEMBER BENGHAZI !

I don't think they were delivered yet. Crews were preparing for their arrival.
Even so, just anybody cannot climb into one and fly away without the keys.
Or codes.

It was a comment on everything (surprise-all being left behind) that the terrorists are picking up.

It may not have been delivered yet, but I have no doubt that they would be given whatever they needed to fly (including lessons paid for by Americans)

They don't need no stnkin' codes-imo they've got an obama and his friends.

Where is the 1700 number coming from? That is staggering.

Amid Foreign and Domestic Crises, Obama Plans to Fundraise and Golf This Weekend

Townhall.com ^ | June 13, 2014 | Leah Barkoukis
Posted on 6/13/2014 12:29:17 PM by jazusamo

The Iraqi government is pleading for help from the U.S. as ISIS militants close in on Baghdad; Syria is still in the grips of war; veterans are dying from long wait times at the VA; and we’ve got a humanitarian crisis going on at the Southwest border.

With all this at the forefront, you’d think the president would work tirelessly to address these problems. Alas, he’ll be doing what he does best this weekend: fundraising and golfing.

President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama should land at Palm Springs International Airport at about 6 p.m. Friday, straight from a visit to the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation in North Dakota.
At approximately 8:30 a.m. Saturday, they’ll jump over to Laguna Beach for a Democratic National Committee fundraiser, followed by the commencement address to UC Irvine’s Class of 2014 at Angel Stadium, which wraps up at 1 p.m.

That puts the Obamas back in the desert at about 2 p.m. Saturday. They will stay for Father’s Day, before flying home to Washington, D.C., mid-morning on Monday. It’s unclear if their daughters, Malia and Sasha, will tag along.

What is Obama’s plan here in the Coachella Valley? Presumably a short vacation, and likely a round of golf or two – though the details remain fuzzy.

Priorities.

Given his gay military policy, I believe it’s “Leave no one’s behind.”

“This is not going to happen overnight,”

This obama code-speak for “good luck to my successor; I’ve got golf clubs to try out.”

If this is indeed true, and any of those contractors are murdered, I hope the country will finally wake up and see what a disaster O truly is. And then I hope he’s driven from office, him and Biden, Pelosi, Reid, Schumer, and the rest of his despicable hord of communists.

I read it- I think it was in the UK Telegraph . It isn’t confirmed so it’s probably unwise of me to post. There were rumors of this happening in/around Mosul.

“..With Obama at the helm, they can trade 200 of them for 1000 terrorists.”

I just said this to my husband a couple of minutes ago.

Sad what our country, and the entire world has become, because of Obama.
