Sand ninjas in white tennies. Welcome to the bigs, fellas.
Uh, who’s side are we on this time? Let’s see, the militants are ISIS and they don’t like Assad ... we are supporting Assad, indirectly? Or is it the other way around? Does anyone really know?
You’d think our own news media would find the time to report on the first fight between ISIS and our guys.
Mess with the eagle and you get the claws.
This is impossible, because 0bambi said we wouldn’t be fighting.

“Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia.”
Active Duty ping.
Memo to ISIS:
US Troops use the sights.
Amen
Anyone know what US unit or units were involved in the fighting?
Fortunately, the attack was after midnight, so we just had slippers on the ground...
Indeed.
On the other hand this story can’t possibly be true because O said he would NEVER put boots on the ground/s
an unknown number of ISIS attackers were killed during the two hour firefight before being forced to retreat.

I can’t help but notice that our role as described in the article is defensive rather than on the offense.
What’s Obama’s objective, to try to run out the clock ... from behind?
WOW...
This sounds like Vietnam all over.(well, not quite)
In VN we ‘hung around’ unofficially from 59-64.
In VN we (officially) fought from 64-75.
Long about 2000 or so they published the revisions that FINALLY credited ‘US’ for really being there in the 59-64 period and gave the ones that were fighting a few fires in areas around VN some ‘credit’ for being there.
In Iraq we had a little skirmish which wiped out the ‘crack troops’ that were going to MOP UP ‘OUR’ guys because they had all that ‘experience’ in the recent war against Iran.
The press was ‘lapping it up’ cause they figured they could claim the Iraqi ‘Republican Guard’ was gonna kick some US ass so the media could drop the Iraqi and Guard and just say ‘Republicans’ kicked US Troops ass.
When the vaunted RG started surrendering to reporters and camera crews the doom and gloomers bout crapped themselves but they could loudly and proudly proclaim that US Troops ‘Kicked the (Iraqi) Republicans (Guard).
10 years later we were ‘at it again’ in a full blown find the WMD caches and there were none (ACTUALLY, if Bush/Cheney etal had known there were NO WMD’s, you can bet your bippie we would have found plenty). So we hung around there and Afghanistan for a few years, SOMEONE said ‘we won’ and we went home.
NOW we are going back to Iraq in an advisory status and, like JFK and LBJ had said ‘NO US TROOPS FIGHTING’, just advising....Also it was LBJ who basically said not ONE American Boys life is worth 1000 VN lives so we ARE NOT going - just prior to us going full tilt.
HEY LBJ, if not ONE was worth it, how do you answering for approx 59000+ of them....I don’t have to hope it is HOT where you are, pretty much sure know you are there now ... You and your flunky McNamara get to do your lying to Lucifer/Beel-Zebub etc you get the drift...
And as soon as the exact number is known, the Courts Martials will begin...
I suppose some people could make the argument that to wipe out the Crips would only help the Bloods.
Some folks just need killing.
