Fresh air raids launched against ISIS close to ancient ruins in Palmyra amid fears ISIS will slaughter rare bird - reward offered in attempt to find bird

Fresh air strikes have been launched against ISIS-controlled buildings in the ancient city of Palmyra amid fears ISIS will slaughter an endangered bird that is crucial to its species' survival.

Prior to the city being overrun by ISIS last week, four of the exceptionally rare northern bald ibis were kept in a breeding colony.

But three of these were abandoned in the fighting and a fourth - a female which knows the species' crucial winter migration routes - has now disappeared.

Children killed, molested and sold into slavery... Christians decapitated... Soldiers set afire... And nothing from the lefties, but even think about killing a bird and all hell is released on ISIS. Sheesh...

well....I’m fairly certain that this article isn’t a parody...but it is strange enough to be, isn’t it.

PETA...VS ISIL! PETA versus ISIS what a double bill

I told my family 15 years ago the country was very divided. And they told me it wasn’t. Then the vote came down to one state and a few thousand votes.

Kurdish genocide — Obama, “no problem”
Egyptian crucifixions — Obama, “no problem”
Selling of Syrian girls — Obama, “no problem”
Rape and sale of Iraqi girls — Obama, “no problem”
murder and rape of US ambassador — Obama, “no problem”
possible attack of a bird?

Obama leaves golf course and launches an irrelevant
attack on his children, ISIS (whom he calls ISIL
to begin an Israeli genocide (he hopes)).

Between the “religion of Peace” idiots, and the utterly brain damaged liberals.....at some juncture...a well placed MOAB fits both scenarios!

“ISIS is about to slaughter the American Chicken.”

Unfortunately, that doesn’t seem to be on the Endangered Species List...

Satire is no longer possible. When you have Republican candidates giving medals to Hillary! and Obama threatening Military men over climate change, going to war over a bird is perfectly logical.

There is no scenario so absurd that a liberal will not propose, defend or enact it.

Actually if that hasn’t already been taken, I claim it henceforth as “Lenhart’s Maxim” but God knows it must have been.
