You would have thought that Barack Obama and David Cameron, the nominal leaders of the free world, would have had it all figured out by now.
Obama, in the sixth year of his presidency and Cameron in his fourth as prime minister, have both nevertheless been loath to identify the growing menace that threatens the survival of the West.

The ISIS phenomenon has stunned the world. Much like the Mongol hordes that swept out of the Central Asian Steppe in the 13th Century, this is a force which seems to have emerged from nowhere -- anti-modern, highly focused in its objectives and brutal in its execution while paying no attention to the niceties of the rules of war. Brutal decapitations of Iraqi civilians, the rape of women, their sale in slave markets, the burial of live victims, the starvation of villagers into submission -- this is not even terrorism, or Assad-like murder of Syrian citizens, but Genghis Khan reincarnated in the 21st Century.
So far, it has swept everything before it, conquering two of Iraq's largest cities, and mercilessly killing anything standing on two legs that does not conform to its standards of religious observance. It represents the gravest threat to stability in a notoriously unstable region of the world.
But because ISIS does not want nor need television credentials nor exposure, and does not have a spokesman nor any kind of specific political identity, Western leaders have been flummoxed as to how to contend with the group and its acts of unrelenting barbarism.
Yet we in the West would be wrong to think that we have seen nothing like it at all on our own soil.

“Calling a thing by its right name is the beginning of wisdom”.
Stunned some parts of the world, but not those with even a modicum of sanity and foresight. Astute people from all quarters (active military, retired military, civil service, etc.) predicted that when the U.S. vacated Iraq, jihadists would move in to fill the vacuum.
Obama just crossed his fingers real hard, squeezed his eyes shut and refused to see or deal with the obvious.
David Cameron came home from his vacation to deal with the ISIS threat. Obama went back to Mahtha's Vineyahd to play more golf.
nobama's got it figured out. In fact, he appears to be helping his fellow moslem brothers.
“this is a force which seems to have emerged from nowhere”
Really???? We’ll start taking these satanists by their word when they’re beheading people on US soil. Maybe.
“Much like the Mongol hordes that swept out of the Central Asian Steppe in the 13th Century...”
No, ISIS has emerged directly from the contemporary Western namby-pamby disinclination to identify the problem - Moslems - and do something about it.
But, then, governments are only good for confiascating taxes from their hard-working constituents, they really don’t like actually to have to do anything in exchange.
ISIS is NOT the problem! ISIS is only a manifestation of Islam with resources. The problem is and has been for 14 centuries ISLAM. Should Islam prevail in the present eruption, civilization will have ended for all time. The human race will descend to a level of bare subsistence and much reduced population. Internecine warfare will continue so long as the race exists but will not rise above the level of raids because there will be insufficient resources for greater violence. Islam must have nonIslamic civilization as a neighbor for it to gain wealth or even maintain what it has. With Islamicization of the world the next civilization can only arise when technology has broken down to such an extent that there is effectively no communication between these much reduced populations and perhaps the people on one continent or another will evolve differently.
My prediction is they'll converge on some isolated little American town or a school, hold hostages in a standoff for awhile, then behead them.
Did they ever thank Obama for the military equipment he gave them back when he called them Freedom Fighters?
When that happens, may God so stir our souls that Islamic jackals will discover what Yamamoto feared, that in America “there will be a rifle behind every blade of grass”.
And, our knives will be loose in our sheathes as we will not take many prisoners.
Odumbo supports these monsters.
Pray America wakes up
RE: Did they ever thank Obama for the military equipment he gave them back when he called them Freedom Fighters?
Actually,most of them were taken from the Iraqi military after they refused to fight, fled and left their military equipment behind.
Now, we find ourselves having to BOMB and destroy our own military equipment.
Hmmmm.....that is a tough one.
How about this? KILL THEM! Slaughter every last frickin one of them. See.....that wasn't so difficult.
------------------------------------------------------------ Nope, those are THEIR rules, works for me. Unfortunately that is the only thing the understand. When do we start?
All mosques in America, and all members and visitors thereto must be cataloged. Said data being public documents, they must be made available to the public.
In such manner may the sworn enemies of America be identified.
You’ll be fighting the DHS — muzzies are a protected species in this country, don’t you know?
