add in the fact that they just got 429 million from the mosul central bank,Saudi and kuwaiti funding and ISIL now have the potential to hire tens of thousands of “fighters” at the rate of $600 per months.This would yield an explosive mid-east that may not stop at Iraq.
I don’t think it’s going to stop at the ME, and the ISIS leaders have even promised as much. I think the idea that it’s “just” a sectarian conflict or “just” a regional or civil war is a comforting fantasy that Obama and the Dems want us to believe. Obama’s way of dealing with any advance of radical Islam is simply to shrug it off and tell us condescendingly that it’s just “stupid stuff,” kind of like children squabbling on the playground, and he, great lord and master and the only adult, knows that boys will be boys and we shouldn’t worry our little heads about it.
His minimizing or ignoring of crises may be simple stupidity, but I think it’s rather odd that every crisis he ignores results in weakening the US and advancing Islam.
