I agree. For one thing, the sheer volume of intel from many sources is overwhelming. There aren’t enough hours in the day to keep up, to sift through it all and decide what’s actionable. Very tough job.
I think time will show they’re likely better than we think. At least Hollande is taking charge and not hemming and hawing.He’s acting as he should. It doesn’t mean he’ll get it right. I pray for him and all the ignorant socialists.
In reality Se Mo....we do not want to put Troops on the ground there....bomb and blow them up ..yes...and with great force. But no troops there. That is exactly what ISIS wants because a ground war with The “great Satan” would enhance their obsessive prophetic belief that it is in that form of chaos (War)their Mahadi will come and force everyone to convert to Islam.
FYI:.....Prophetically they believe Northern Syria around Alleppo and Raqqa areas is the exact place their porphecies will begin to be filled....and why ISIS made the area their headquarters.
Also this is why Erdogan wants to set up a “safe” area there for refugees...( he controls the refugees and ISIS) as his dream is to be the Sultan of the Caliphat.
To understand why they choose the areas of intense fighting and why they are determined to hold those areas just take a look at what their prophetic teachings say. Syria is KEY...and why so many different tribes and sects of Islam are fighting there.
