Hate to break it, but we're ALREADY in there doing something about it. The US military is. They just got their dam back overnight. Downside here though is that we're now risking having the Pesh Merga turn on Turkey in a couple of years.As to long term solutions, we may have to raise taxes in order to pay for more stuff. Let's see who's willing to sell THAT. |

Destroying some equipment, killing a handful of bad guys. They'll ooze their way back into the civilian populace where we can't get at the majority of 'em. |

I still can't wrap my mind about the original plan back in 2001 when we took out Saddam to give Iraq to Iran, then formed a government between all the crooks Rumsfeld knew from Chalabi to Maliki made up of Iran's folks who then went and caused the Sunnis to revolt. *IF* we had just left that shit alone in the first place, Saddam was at least something that kept Iran somewhat in check.Now because of all this, we've got the Sunni and Shia killing each other for now ... and you're right. Once the dust settles, both sides will come after everybody else. We broke it, the world bought it. :( |

That's just a question of effectiveness, not intent.Give Hamas modern military hardware, and they'll be just as bad if not worse. Give Hamas military power on par with America's and you'd have a global holocaust. That they don't have the ability to cause any real damage doesn't mean they're not evil enough to do so if they could. |

More dangerous, but trickier to deal with given (a) the clusterfuck that is Iraq, (b) the clusterfuck that is Syria, (c) the fact that we are directly responsible for creating the clusterfuck that is Iraq, (d) the fact that we share indirect responsibility for contributing to the clusterfuck that is Syria, and (e) the fact that after creating the clusterfuck that is Iraq, Americans are understandably reluctant to send troops back in to make a bigger clusterfuck. |

You know an org is bad when Al Qaeda wants nothing to do with them for being too extreme. Unfortunately I guess we will be over there indefinitely. I wonder who is funding this group, they seem to have better training and better weapons than the Iraqi gov't. The Iraqi gov't was in such a rush for us to leave they don't seem to be as ready as they thought.PS Not all Muslims are bad they just have some terrible apples with means(sorry will get off my moral soapbox now) |

My directors serve for three year terms, and "bath time" is a flagrant mistranslation— although the word "kainas" literally means "to clean [oneself]," it's used idiomatically to refer to removing the old guard at a company to bring in new ideas. It also has connotations of forced retirement, so you probably shouldn't let my CEO hear you say it. |

Posted by Mitch45 on Wed Aug 20 08:26:43 2014, in response to ISIS beheads American journalist, posted by Dave on Tue Aug 19 20:22:13 2014. I am reminded of a musical skit during Mel Brooks' hilarious 1983 film, "To Be or Not to Be", which was a remake of an earlier Jack Benny films. Brooks plays the head of an acting company who is trying to get his troupe out of Nazi Germany, despite there being a number of Jews and homosexuals in the troupe.During the skit, Brooks, dressed as Hitler, sings about peace. "All I vant is peace! Peace! A little piece of England, a little piece of France..." |
