OBL may have lost his life, but he certainly accomplished and continues to accomplish(from his grave) all of his goals.

That is Will’s method of calming down the Islamic extremists. I wonder if Will has striped pants like Chamberlain’s?

“I think we’re looking at kind of a 30-year war,” Panetta said recently, adding the current conflict “will have to extend beyond Islamic State to include emerging threats in Nigeria, Somalia, Yemen, Libya and elsewhere.”

Same shit that Dubya was spouting after 9-11. By no means should we let our troops go in and kick ass and take names and get this shit over with. Instead, let’s just drag this shit out, get as many of our men and women maimed, mutilated, psychologically destroyed, and killed as possible, while making the registers at the Military Industrial Complex go “ka-ching”.

If we fought to win a decisive victory and get it over with, perhaps I could support such an effort, but this talk of “thirty year” wars tells us all a thinking person should need to know. The appropriate response is “not no but HELL NO”.

***BREAKING NEWS*** PLAN UNVEILED TO REDUCE 30 YEAR WAR TO 30 DAY WAR ***

Send in the B-52s and the B-1s. Carpet bomb everything. Take out bridges, buildings, power plants, water treatment plants, dams, weapons plants, food depots, hospitals, and anything else that the idiot terrorists can use. Continue this for one week then stop. Give them 12 hours to surrender unconditionally if they do not repeat. Continue this pattern until they surrender and we can send in troops to occupy the place and start rebuilding or until their is nothing of value left. War over with in 30 days, rebuilding begins, install friendly western governments in the same manner we did after WWII in Japan and Germany.

Wars are not won by the country with the military advantage. They are won by the country with the political advantage.
ISIS would love if that strategy was taken by the US. One third of the fighters are foreign. They could care less if everything is destroyed. All they need is guns, ammo and Toyota trucks. They would just hunker down or hide in the desert until it was over and move into neighboring countries. They would gain support worldwide from sympathetic jihadists. They would have the political advantage.

There are more than 1 billion Muslims. Carpet bombing Muslim nations will just make more enemies. If they want to live in the dark ages LET THEM! Pull our troops out and leave the Muslims to settle the mess Bush and Cheney started for themselves.

“Thirty Years War” is an apt comparison.

1. The people thought the war was about religion.
2. The war was about gaining power and the threating each other’s power.
3. The sides are confusing. Catholic France fought with the Protestants. Denmark-Norway and Bohemia fought with the Protestants then switched to the Catholic side. It is hard to tell which side Iran, Syria, Turkey and Saudi Arabia are on.
4. There were no clear winners, but it was the last major religious war in Europe. In fact, since the seventeenth century, the only major Protestant – Catholic conflicts were in Ireland and Northern Ireland.

The war in the middle east is another oil war, plain and simple. Now that ISIS has some of the precious juice, they can attack anyone they want … And of course the Kurds will defend their own oil rich low lying hills … and Iran will seek to get more from Iraq if give the chance … and the Saudi Royal Family doesn’t like the competition … and HamAss and Hesbulabula want what the Israelis are discovering the Mediterranean … And the Turks? And the Greeks? And the Cypriots and the Russians and the Ukrainians and the EU … and the USA.

Well, if you might be one of those one worlders who advocate population control, so having the stupid male Helots in the herd killed off in battle is a whole lot easier and quicker than castration.

But I’m being hugely cynical …

Our President and Commander-in Chief apparently does not want to win this one (either). If He did, our military would have (re)captured our military air base west of Baghdad and we would have a squadron of A-10s doing the dirty in the desert right now. The A-10s could and would easily knockout the ISIS command and control mullahs and thus would save thousands of lives on both sides.

No, Islamic State Militants Have Not Been Caught by U.S. Border Patrol
By Danny Vinik @dannyvinik Photo: Getty Images/Aris Messinis
Since the U.S. began airstrikes in Iraq and Syria against the Islamic State, Republicans have frequently connected the terrorist group to border security in the U.S. In August, Texas Governor Rick Perry called it a “very real possibility” that fighters from the Islamic State had already crossed into the U.S.
On Tuesday night, Representative Duncan Hunter, a Republican from California, took those comments even further. Appearing on “On the Record with Greta Van Susteren,” Hunter said, “At least ten ISIS fighters have been caught coming across the border in Texas.” When Van Susteren asked how he knew that, Hunter replied, “Because I’ve asked the border patrol, Greta.”

I asked the Department of Homeland Security if Hunter’s comments were true. They weren’t.
“The suggestion that individuals who have ties to ISIL have been apprehended at the Southwest border is categorically false, and not supported by any credible intelligence or the facts on the ground,” said DHS spokesperson Marsha Catron. “DHS continues to have no credible intelligence to suggest terrorist organizations are actively plotting to cross the southwest border.”
UPDATE: Hunter isn’t backing off his comments, claiming they came from a “high-level source” at DHS.”The Congressman was conveying what he knows—and what he was told,” Hunter’s spokesperson told The Huffington Post. “And as for DHS’ statement, it makes sense that the left hand of DHS doesn’t know what the right hand is doing—it’s been that way for a long time and we don’t expect that to change. No surprise there.”
