Obama is likely terrified that he will hit civilians; his base routed Bush by loudly decrying every civilian hit. If Obama starts killing human shields his base is gone from him forever.
Obama actually hits lots of civilians, with the drone attacks. That’s why a lot of our allies aren’t willing to be allies any more; he hits the wrong people with drone strikes. That is, unless he intended to hit our anti-terror allies...
His base says they give him a pass because he qualifies as a “Black”.
I’ve read that ISIS shifted their techniques once they knew there were airstrikes coming. They’ve dispersed. But that doesn’t explain why Obama won’t hit them when they’re obviously congregated to attack this Kurdish city; seems like anyplace they gather enough fighters to overtake a city it should be like wearing a target on their backs....
But not with this Muslim-in-chief as supposed commander-in-chief.
“And why are they striking empty buildings?”
My guess is that Obama knows they are empty and wants to appear to fight ISIS without actually doing them any harm.
Also hoping that his cuts to the military will result in depletion of missiles and such...
