Such a dorkhead.
Obama has been pushing at the recent NATO summit for the formation of a coalition to resist ISIS, but Great Britain has been stressing such a force should not be Western led. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and other administration officials have, in turn, been reaching out to nations across the Middle East.
Many of the key Sunni countries, such as Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates, however, not only channel money to ISIS, but also have militaries inferior, particularly in command and control and tactical maneuvering, to ISIS’ capabilities – and its fanaticism and ferocity on the battlefield.
ISIS was able to score early battlefield successes against an Iraqi army that initially scattered upon being attacked, abandoning much of its modern – and expensive – Western military equipment for ISIS’ use.
This development came after the United States over a decade had spent hundreds of billions of dollars to train and equip the Iraqi army, only to have it evaporate on ISIS’ initial assaults into the country last June.
This acquisition of powerful military hardware, along with its takeover of oil wells and the robbing of banks approaching a billion dollars, allowed the Sunni jihadist group to incorporate vast amounts of territory, military bases and other strategic infrastructure facilities, which the Iraqi army now finds difficult, if not impossible, to retrieve.

I have always maintained that this is the anointed obuttment's strategy all along, he wants a strong, muzzie army to establish the caliphate there, then import them to here to solidify his place in it's history. they just don't want the ol' USA to exist. they want slaves, and the wimmen...

DeleteHell, Obama couldn't keep up with my three year old grandson's rock throwing strategy.
ReplyDeleteYou got that right!
DeleteHave you ever noticed our PINO's flat affect when he speaks on just about any topic? The emotionless Chauncy Gardner discussing matters all the same -- beheadings, constant wars started by him, plunging dollar, soaring debt, demolished military, Nazi IRS, NSA, DHS - "how nice to be on the Titanic and listen to the lovely violins playing and we should be so grateful that we are on such a lovely ship and notice the lovely violin music, and isn't that nice that these men have decided to stay behind to play for you as the ship floats to its destination... blah blah blah blah blah (we won't talk about how few lifeboats there are).
ReplyDeletewe won't talk about how few lifeboats there are
DeleteVery well said. :)
There is only one way to stop this, and it involves Russia. But with the Kenyan's expected (yet another) screwup (via European sanctions from USA pressure) that will never happen. The Kenyan will never move unilaterally so, like Iran's acquisition of nuclear weaponry, we can expect ISIL to flourish.
ReplyDeleteBe interesting to see the reaction if Putin bombed them.
DeleteYep, and with the Europeans backing off on the heavy sanctions threat, that might still happen. But then, the sanctions thing is so fluid, who knows what's going to happen? They (we) change our minds every fifteen seconds. It's a Kenyan thang.
