A backroom deal with Saudis and other nations to replace the Shia govt with a Sunni one, or to split it in 3?
Obama's sympathy for Sunni terrorist/caliphate movement?
Those wild speculations might be very wrong, but the normal explanations don't seem to fit very well either
Why not? I don’t think Putin would object?
Meanwhile Obama will be at some fund raiser with other idiots getting money from the people he most wants to make extinct.
So he’ll apologize to Assad and Putin now? These are the same assholes Obama / McCain wanted to put in power in Syria.
Actions speak louder than words. This beast is Obama’s creation.
well I heard that 200 American contractors are surrounded by ISIS at Balad Air Strip and are fighting to hold them off. Will Obama ignore these guys. He made all to do with Bowe Bergdahl —how we don’t leave anyone behind—what about these American contractors? I am not for putting American ground forces back in Iraq, but we have to do some air strikes. And we should help the Kurds if need be. Let the Shia & Sunnis go at it—Iran has already sent in forces to help Shia.
I’ve been thinking about this ISIS situation. If Iraq had defended its border with Syria, instead of letting ISIS maniacs roam back at forth at will, ISIS never would have had the ability to take over a huge part of Iraq without a wimper. It all goes back to the US working to topple Assad, and Iraq giving those “friendly freedom fighters” we arm and train free movement.
That speech from Obama sure made me feel confident. We are governed by eight year olds.
He wants diplomacy to settle it once and for all.
Unfortunately, that can cost ya yur life these days in Iraq.
Once called a success by Biden and Obama.
Now, nothing more than a death march for far too many
Who bought more than a few lies..
Almost as many as colonic Powell..
NO blood is shed in vain if you will,,
Rather some would seek a kinder way to conduct ‘diplomacy’ in Iraq.
Obama, will monitor the situation this weekend from his golf cart iPad...
translation: Hey, ISIS, you have a few days to hightail it to Syria and hunker down.
Meanwhile Herr Obozo and his Wookie have other important plans!
Amid Foreign and Domestic Crises, Obama Plans to Fundraise and Golf This Weekend

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.

Since they have our AA missiles that is probably a good idea.
