Where is American air power when ISIS thugs congregate at sites such as this? Do we not watch for or monitor their convoys??? Does King Zero secretly applaud their actions?

If they are so worried about worshiping idols, why do they worship the space rock in Mecca and the rock in the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem? Seems to me they would be glad if someone destroyed those two false idols.

I guess if your goal is to antagonize Christians, Easter is the day to blow up churches.

When people are willing to fight back, ISIS will go away. As long as the Christians are martyred, there isn’t much we can do for them.
