It will motivate the ISIS mob to join Irans Shiites. Not going to happen. Even shiites are not that nuts.

That is a fact hidden by the fog of war by the MSM to protect its king.

Congress? “Present” also.

And so, another Democrat gets us into a war on the installment plan. Will he be personally selecting targets from the White House (sorry, from the golf course) the way that LBJ did?

Yes these are the people we shuttled arms to thru Benghazi where 30 cia operatves were at work when Steven and 3 other brave men were killed.
We helped to created this monster with our taxpayers dollars.
Of the many weapons we gave them there were also stinger missiles and I would bet that one of those were use when 30 special forces were killed when Extortion 17 was shot down. Maybe this is why the Government has made that investigattion so clouded.
Your Goverment at work, Obamas Transformative Foreign Policy.
And you cant ever be allowed to tell the truth because thr Regime and the New Ameican Pravda will not tolerate any misalignment to their political ideology, facts be damned.

Not to worry. Kerry says they’ll be incredibly small. They’ll probably send in a squadron of 1/72 scale Revells.

The President is enforcing or perhaps even establishing the new borders of the nations emerging from the former Iraq.
Once the understanding is reached for the Kurdish border, the pressure will switch to the south and a de facto border between the Sunni and Shia areas north of Baghdad.
Then, Allepo will be taken and perhaps part of Lebanon.

Well, that out to get them through a day, or two.
I know. I read there were 40,00 Yazidis, etc on this mountain. Sending them 8,000 MRE's is better than nothing, but it's not enough to keep them going.
