If we know this, isn't it time to carpet bomb that highway with B-52s?

[Paulie]

We’re only bombing asprin factories. Wouldn’t want to interrupt the caliphate.

As I recall, the Iranian militias assisted the Iraqi forces in taking back Fallujah. As far as I know, the Iraqi government still controls fallujah. I’m thinking that is ISIS’s next goal. Once Fallujah falls, they will be really close to Bagdad and all of the Anbar province will effectively be in ISIS’s hands.

I don’t understand how ISIS can run their Toyota trucks on highways all over Iraq/Syria. They should be sitting ducks for air power.

What the hell is going on with our military? Obama tells the media last week to stop reporting ISIS as an organized military operation, as they are just individual fighters on the run. What are these bozos doing?

If Assad falls, ISIS has a corridor to the Med. Why THE HECK are we fighting Assad?

[PGR88]

And remember, just a short time ago, that @ss McCain pushing for American power to overthrow Assad and turn Syria on its head?

Is this the result he was seeking?

[Lorianne]

Why? What difference does it make who controls which highway over there? It’s Sunni vs Shia for over 1000 years.

Which team are we on?

[Obadiah]

Why is everyone so upset. Obama told us this was just the JV team. Pffft... nothing to worry about.

[SandRat]

Time to make BLOODY HIWAY NUMBER 2?

[Iscool]

And that means the Islamic State (aka ISIS, ISIL, or Daesh) now has a superhighway or sorts across Syria and Iraq.

That would be completely impossible, unless---

Isn’t it time Obama was held responsible for this catastrophic failure in foreign policy and national defense?

Sadaam had a "superhighway" supplying Kuwait too. Highway 80, aka the Highway of Death. Doubt ISIS is concerned about that.

Between refusing to support the Iranian green movement, supporting the Arab Spring, supporting the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt and then wailing when it was taken down, supporting the removal of just about every friendly leader in the middle east by fundamentalists and terrorists, and letting Iran humiliate us repeatedly at the bargaining table because he's so desperate to get them to sign up for a fake deal we know they'll break, it's almost as if Obama supports the advance of militant Islam.
