ISIS Bearing Down On Baghdad Even As World Watches Kobani Siege October 10, 2014

Waves of U.S.-led air strikes against Islamic State fighters appear to have done little to stem the terrorist army’s advance in Syria, and now the militants are close to overrunning key positions on the outskirts of Baghdad.

With the world’s eyes on the terrorist army’s siege of the Syrian border city of Kobani, where U.S.-led airstrikes are backing Kurdish fighters, some 500 miles southeast, Islamic State fighters are within eight miles of the Iraqi metropolis. The Islamic militants have reportedly infiltrated the Baghdad suburb of Abu Ghraib, not far from the runway perimeter of Baghdad's international airport. The suburb is perhaps best known to the west as the site of an infamous prison operated by the U.S. military during the Iraq war.

When are people going to realize that this is being done in coordination with the Obama Administration.

This is treason by the Obama Administration. It is as simple as that.

[ArmstedFragg]

Not news. They’ve been operating in Abu Ghraib for several months. It’s an easy commute from Fallujah.

[Olog-hai]

There goes the “sovereign, stable and self-reliant” Islamic Republic of Iraq. (That was not a typo; under al-Maliki, they had adopted an Islamic constitution.)

[CatOwner]

Oh, many people realize it. No one will do a damn thing about it.

We get the government we deserve.

[twister881]

Makes no difference, because Obola has checked out. He’s too busy fundraising, playing golf, getting high, having homo sex, and planning his post-POTUS activities to care about Iraq or American security interests.

[Oldexpat]

So how many troops and diplomats do we have in Baghdad? There are a couple of airfields closer to the city center that could be used for evacuation, but the international airport seems to be within artillery range now.

[Jim Robinson]

Obama is the worst president ever. A traitor!

[blueunicorn6]

Send in The War On Poverty Army!

“We many.....we greedy many......we band of takers.”

[skeeter]

First casualties in Afghanistan triple under his ridiculous ROI, then he sends soldiers into ebola infected Liberia, now the military watches as everything they accomplished in Iraq is undone.

I respect them even more, the US military has the patience of a saint - in any other nation they'd be storming the White House.

[Lorianne]

Oh dear, what shall we do?

[Lorianne]

It was gone months ago. People just didn’t get the memo

We now have Syrac

[b4its2late]

0 gave it all back to groups that made Saddam appear tame.

[MeshugeMikey]

never to be one whos out of the spotlight..it is rumored that Obies making a covert trip... to greet isil... on their arrival in the Big B.

[montag813]

When are people going to realize that this is being done in coordination with the Obama Administration. This is treason by the Obama Administration. It is as simple as that.

Michael Savage has been saying this for 2 months now. If Americans knew the backstory, there would be impeachment hearings tomorrow. THIS is what Wikileaks should release.

[Gator113]

Meanwhile, the Traitor in Chief remains in our White House and continues to laugh himself to sleep.

[dragnet2]

Get India to do something about it...Or maybe Africa, or try our good friends the Chinese.

[DoughtyOne]

Makes you wonder if people will ever wake up to what this man is doing to global dynamics.

You don’t honestly want China or Indian ground forces in Iraq do you?

Good grief that would up the stakes incredibly.

We already have enough problems with old Russian influence in the area.

[American Constitutionalist]

Ebola knew what he was doing way ahead of time when bola ordered troops to leave Iraq.
The Arab spring, Isis, and the Ebola outbreaks and the spreading of ebola are no accident.
I dare to say ? All done intentional on purpose.
The spread of ebola virus in the USA ? It gives Obola a excuse to declare marsheld law.
