Glad to hear this.. maybe things are beginning to change for the better over there. Just keep arming and equipping the Peshmerga, give them some close air support, and they’ll take it the rest of the way.

“When they know were he is and he’s with supporters..”
That should be a piece of cake. He’ll be in the middle of a few hundred children and pregnant women. He’s as much a coward as is obama.

It's just that simple to put a stop to these guys.
If Obama had even threatened air strikes when ISIS first attacked they never would have left Mosul.
If Obama actually had allowed air strikes on ISIS at the start of this ISIS would have been wiped out in a matter of days.
It seems Obama and ISIS have similar policy goals for Iraq, and Obama has no problem with ISIS in control .

So afraid of being targeted he fled amongst a convoy of 30 Humvees..
Why was he not bombed?

Obama wants the caliphate so badly he can taste it.

Are A10's still active?
For some reason I thought that they had been pulled from active service. If so, what a shame!

May the Syrians send this bastard to hell.
Killing him will help the world.
If the Syrians can’t kill him, maybe the Iranians and Russians can take him out.
Our Sunni White outhouse will never issue a kill order for their Sunni/ISIS/IS buddy.

How true, though I was thinking primarily about recent events in Libya.
To: GonzoII
"as part of a convoy of 30 Hummer vehicles" Interesting. If this isn't deception, then it's target acquisition.

Should’ve been very easy to spot, and very easy to destroy. This Al Baghdadi needs to be introduced to his 72 Helen Thomases.

Of course, the Yazidis are unarmed.
American airstrikes need to intesify, with .50 cal cannon, as well as bombs and missiles.
