Obama considers special forces to help in iraq

Just because Maliki can't be trusted was no reason for BO not to press policy with him.
Nice try.....its BO's fault.

So instead of a problem you accuse BHO of creating with the Sunni Muslim Brotherhood;
You would have preferred a further stand-off with Iranian-backed Maliki, inflaming both sides of the sectarian war left by Bush .
 
Can't imagine being a soldier with this buffoon in charge. Has ever there been so much uncertainty and distrust among our troops of the Commander and Chief?

Everything perplexes him. Surprised at every turn on everything. Drowning in incompetence and inexperience.

The VA, IRS, DoJ, prisoner swap, Obamacare, Benghazi, Egypt, Libya, Putin, Crimea, Ukraine, etc, etc, etc,.....and now this ugly terrorist takeover of Iraqi cities he's chosen to abandon for slaughter.

Perhaps he just needs some time off and a couple rounds of golf.

When your active duty who is commander in chief means little. Most soldiers are non-political or apolitical which ever word applies. We do what we are told and do it well. I served under LBJ, Nixon, Ford, Carter and Reagan, as far as my duties go it made no difference.

Nimby if you don't know that the Syrian Muslim Brotherhood were the backesr of the Rebels and funding them. Then you were never up on the news anyways.

I told you.....you want to know what was going on. Check out our threads on Syria and the Concerning Syria Thread. Its all there.
 
Ok, are you going ti blame the Allies for The Nazi Party?

Could certainly blame it for an atmosphere in which it could thrive.

It provided ammo for extreme nationalists... Which is what the nazis were.
 
Wow, that's a leap in logic. We didn't invade Germany or Japan on a pretext. Japan had attacked us, and we Germany had already declared war on us. And they, the aggessors, set in motion much of what came after. But, trying to keep making the false comparisons to WWII is just silly. This compares on no level.

The reason for invading is irrelevant. You claim we created a mess by invading: created terrorists by invading. Groups like the Red Brigade and the Bahder-Meinhoff gang were a by-product of WW2, so per your argument, we can blame the Allies for that mess, just like we can blane Lincoln for the KKK. Are you able to see where you're going wrong yet?

So, you would just as quickly blame Lincoln for the KKK?

No, because the aggressors hold the blame. Can't you see the difference between the two? If we had started WWII, invaded on a pretext, you would be spot on. But the aggressors were Germany, Japan and Italy. As such, they hold the blame.

And no, you can blame the compromise, that led to the war for the KKK. That and a host of other things. But once you invade, start a war of choice, what comes after will likely be bad, and you are responsible. That's why only going to war when you have to, not want to, is a better choice.

Helping HRC with a book tour? :lamo

Obama sending troops to Iraq. OBAMA BAD!

Who pulled out of there and claimed victory? It's all politics with him, never any substance.
 
So, you would just as quickly blame Lincoln for the KKK?
Don't ever blame Lincoln for the KKK again, k apdst?
That would be you southern cons, who are now GOPs.
Not to mention that sleazy deal by your Louisiana electors in 1876, giving away the Presidency to remove Union troops, as if Tilden wouldn't have .

Who gave him the go-ahead to leave from the GOP---GOP foreign affairs leader McCain?

Syria pounds ISIL bases in coordination with Iraq: NGO

Beirut (AFP) - Syria's army has been pounding for 24 hours major bases of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant in coordination with the Baghdad government, a monitor said Sunday. The strikes against ISIL -- which has spearheaded a week-long jihadist offensive in Iraq -- have been more intense than ever, said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. "The regime air force has been pounding ISIL's bases, including those in the northern province of Raqa and Hasakeh in the northeast," which borders Iraq, said the Britain-based group.

The regime of President Bashar al-Assad was responding to the fact that ISIL "brought into Syria heavy weapons including tanks" captured from the Iraqi army.

In Raqa, the air force bombed the area surrounding ISIL's main headquarters in Syria, as well as the group's religious courts, said the Observatory, adding there were no reported casualties . On Saturday, the regime also bombarded ISIL's headquarters at Shaddadi in Hasakeh, home to a frontier crossing from Iraq that is under the jihadists' control.....snip~

I wouldn't know anything Rush Limbaugh is saying unless someone posts something up. I never listen to him. Also If you want to know more with what is taking place with Maliki and Iraq.

Then you can look here.

The sad part, is you understand my point and don't even know it.
 
How did FDR make it into your post apdst--focus--
How does Obama clean up your boy Bush's mess without a SOFA, a SOFA that even Bush couldn't get--
remember McCain saying Obama was rigtht to leave without a SOFA--of course you don't -

How did Bush make it into any post? The thread title is 'Obama considers special forces to help in iraq'.

should it just be the USA only bombing, further inflaming all Arabs--

Right. Leftists are concerned about 'inflaming' Arabs but the Arabs certainly aren't worried about 'inflaming' Americans. That's what happens with weak leadership and blindly naive followers.
 
'WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House is considering sending a small number of American special forces soldiers to Iraq in an urgent attempt to help the government in Baghdad slow the nation's rampant Sunni insurgency, U.S. officials said Monday.

While President Barack Obama has explicitly ruled out putting U.S. troops into direct combat in Iraq, the plan under consideration suggests he would be willing to send Americans into a collapsing security situation for training and other purposes.

Three U.S. officials familiar with ongoing discussions said the potential of sending special forces to Iraq is high on a list of military options that are being considered.'

Obama considers special forces to help in Iraq


So...first no troops to Iraq...and now some troops to Iraq.

So much for Obama's word.

But I am quite sure liberals will make excuses for him...again.


(Once again, I am neither Dem nor Rep)
Obama can also consider leaving office immediately.
 
wrong--no need to waste further words--

Because of the lies about SOFA coming from your team.
Obviously, your team's lying revision of history beginning in 2009 by cheney/rumsfeld is the bedrock of our foreign policy divisions.
And thanks for the Bush-43 liars for coming out of hibernation to divide the Nation again .
