A wider campaign to 'get rid of IS' is going to have to be an international deal. We can't and shouldn't take it on alone otherwise we will be what they say we are, "Defenders of the Cross".

We are and will be sorry Bobby no getting around that.

Pretty much the only reason Obama is lifting a finger now. Can't be a Jew hater and Christian hater all at the same time it's not good for elections.

US air power will have limited effect against ISIS since it's is not a conventional war. It could help the Kurds from losing more ground. Long term solution has to be from within, not from a coalition of forces from the west.

They can't even get their act together and settle on a PM. Obama said just now that we will not be Iraq's Air Force. Hope it stays that way.

At least Baghdad and Kurdistan realize there is a common enemy.
I think we should bomb the ISIS control centers in Syria..that is where the command and control element is.

think about it...no one would really be upset about that except ISIS. Analysts say that is where the decisions about Iraq are being made. ISIS also has the Mosul Dam.
