This report should reassure us all:
Reports #Iraq-i town of al-Baghdadi fallen to #ISIS, but Pentagon says no attack on US troops at Asad Air base
I wouldn’t want to take on 320 dug in Marines. That said....
Obama told us everything was fine in Iraq. Obama told us everything was fine in Yemen.
What the hell is it going to take before the American Press quits covering for this dipstick? Let’s load the American Press on planes and take them to Iraq and give them each a stick and tell them to get after it. Dumbasses.
Finally, an accurate article.
Good luck taking on those Marines, ISIS idiots.
Is it reasonable to assume that since this story has made it to the non-right wing HuffPo that it is true?
Because if this is true I think it is very, very bad.
I know it’s frustrating, but these are Marines. I am an old Soldier, but I have been around a lot of Marines. ISIS will regret the day they ever even thought of messing with United States Marines. I’m not there, but I will bet on the Marines any day.
Perfect place for application.
The earliest report on this is the Reuters story posted at 2:45 pm EDT on Thursday. All subsequent news stories since then are rewrites of that report. No one apparently knows what the situation there is at this time.
