[Psalm 144]

“And that raises a side question, at least in my mind. That clock tower was the sight of many executions. So why wasn’t it leveled some time ago?

Seems to me that would have sent a message.”

Good point. The fact of the matter is that the One World types running the West have little or no motivation to put down ISIS, which they are in large part responsible for nurturing if not creating. Their real immediate goal is to reduce Syria to another anarchic charnel pit like Libya.

This is just a sop to popular opinion. Even if it is true, one loser torturer does not destroy the organization which is large, well funded, and mysteriously rich in logistical support.

There is something weird about this whole ISIS thing. Their so-called capital city is Raqqa. Certainly, that city must have considerable infrastructure. Power plants, banks, major roads, a city hall, etc. Maybe I missed the reports, but I don't think any of that has been hit.

Maybe concern for the civilian population is part of it. But it sure seems like something more going on.
