American Forces Said to Bomb ISIS Targets in Iraq[W:1007]

Re: American Forces Said to Bomb ISIS Targets in Iraq

lol It's difficult to rally around a war based on lies.




I dunno about that.

Were you asleep at the time?
 
Re: American Forces Said to Bomb ISIS Targets in Iraq


It's clear from that video that democrat politicians think voters all have short term memory issues. Based on many of the comments on this thread it appears they are correct in regards to progressives.
 
Re: American Forces Said to Bomb ISIS Targets in Iraq

Oh goodness!

The Islamic State (IS)[4][6][50] (Arabic: الدولة الإسلامية‎ ad-Dawlah al-ʾIslāmiyyah), also known as the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS)

The group, in its original form, was composed of and supported by a variety of Sunni insurgent groups, including its predecessor organizations, Al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI) (2003–2006), Mujahideen Shura Council (2006–2006) and the Islamic State of Iraq (ISI) (2006–2013), other insurgent groups such as Jeish al-Taiifa al-Mansoura, Jaysh al-Fatiheen, Jund al-Sahaba and Katbiyan Ansar Al-Tawhid wal Sunnah, and a number of Iraqi tribes that profess Sunni Islam.

Sorry sport.....I don't bother to click on Wikipedia links. Do come back with a serious main stream source.
 
Re: American Forces Said to Bomb ISIS Targets in Iraq

The topic is ISIS, not the US. You were obviously wrong and now respond like spoiled little boy.

Progressives lose their composure over any mention of inner city violence and killing in the US.
 
Re: American Forces Said to Bomb ISIS Targets in Iraq

Oh I have a good understanding of wars, and given recent history a good understanding of preemptive wars and wars of choice. NOTHING was won in Iraq. Iraq was a total loss. A loss of US blood and treasure, and a HUGE loss of Iraqi blood and treasure. And the horrible thing is that they never stopped loosing. They are still loosing.

The war moved Iraq from a totalitarian dictatorship to a democracy where Iraqis actually get to vote and elect their leaders. It is incredibly stupid to suggest that nothing was accomplished.
 
Re: American Forces Said to Bomb ISIS Targets in Iraq

What part of this do you not understand. Had Bush not launched a pre-emptive war of choice, and had the House and Senate not had their heads up there asses with support for it. We wouldn't be talking about Iraq. Iraq is a colossal failure of a huge magnitude. And late as it is, thankfully Americans in majority numbers finally figured this out.


My decisions aren't based upon polls. I was opposed to Afghanistan and Iraq when it was hugely unpopular to be, as in, before either one happened. I was in the lead on this along with very few other Americans at the time. I'm just pointing out to you that even though it took Americans years to realise it, they are in growing numbers, too. BOTH A-Stan and Iraq. Your going to have to live with it, that's the way it is.

We can agree or disagree in regards to Iraq....however it is completely idiotic to oppose our invasion of Afghanistan. The WW2 era equivalent would be the USA giving Japan a pass on Pearl Harbor.
 
Re: American Forces Said to Bomb ISIS Targets in Iraq

I've only stated it endlessly here, pay attention. Aggressive, interventionist policies in the ME, decades of support of the very Islamic jihadists that have you frightened, have enabled them and bred hatred for America. Have you still not read OBL's letter in which he outlines clearly why the 9/11 attacks were launched? Never mind what Bush said they hate us for, its not because of Starbucks, the NFL and shopping malls, nor perceived morals and values. You seem to want to ignore the reasons and just keep fighting.

Osama Bin Laden was a bloody murderous and quite insane terrorist. It's sad that you put so much stock in what he said.
 
Re: American Forces Said to Bomb ISIS Targets in Iraq

You vastly overestimate their potential. The movement has real limits and while they can make random strikes outside, as can some in other countries, they lack the ability to do much else. You can't rule the world. And you won't stop terrorism by invading and occupying countries.

Right now they control enough land to cover the size of Belgium.
 
Re: American Forces Said to Bomb ISIS Targets in Iraq

Of course you would, but him not being white is just the icing on the cake for you.

Race baiting is clearly the only weapon in your arsenal. Pathetic.
 
Re: American Forces Said to Bomb ISIS Targets in Iraq

You're funny buddy.

Recent converging studies are showing that liberals tend to have a larger and/or more active anterior cingulate cortex, or ACC—useful in detecting and judging conflict and error—and conservatives are more likely to have an enlarged amygdala, where the development and storage of emotional memories takes place. More than one study has shown these same results, which is why I felt it was worth investigating.

Your Brain on Politics: The Cognitive Neuroscience of Liberals and Conservatives : The Intersection

You are positive proof that those studies cannot be taken seriously.
 
Re: American Forces Said to Bomb ISIS Targets in Iraq

Do you have any proof? Feel free to put up or shut up.

Then I assume you were asleep at the time.

And I'm going to assume you're full of beans.

There is a facade of democracy. It's a Shiite government, try again.

No, it wouldn't. Do you think we've Conquered terrorism? Anyway, the majority of Americans consider it to have been a mistake, and once the last troops are gone from there, it will go the way of Iraq as well.

You deny that he told everybody why he attacked us on 9/11, silly.

Can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.

No... no it wouldn't. A country that is small in population and run by tiny tribal sects does not equate to imperial Japan. Sorry.

Pretty lame, the race card, as usual. You know absolutely nothing about me, but call me a racist. How are your protests with The Westboro Baptist Church going? Not that I know anything about you, but who cares? Doesn't stop you.
 
Re: American Forces Said to Bomb ISIS Targets in Iraq

Yes, that is why liberals invented the group hug and watch countless hours of TV court shows and Jerry Springer knock-offs.

Liberals wallow in misery, lash out against anyone they deem to be happier or more successful, and generally sit mired in self-loathing bitterness. You rarely meet a happy liberal.

And your "study" was written by liberals who wrote a book called "The Republican War on Science". Nice try, though.

That's another thing they do, after they make their emotional decisions. They try and justify it all with studies, charts, and graphs. Usually it's something that shows that liberals are the superior being... they'll claim to be smarter, richer, gayer, etc... (they don't realize that they are the same as us). Heck, they'll come up with a study that says 2+2=5 if it furthers the cause. It's quite sad.
 
Re: American Forces Said to Bomb ISIS Targets in Iraq

You are applying western values to a region with different values. This is historical, religious, ideological, etc-western diplomacy ESPECIALLY in the ME has a poor record.

Nope. But I do tend to live by my values and not theirs. If you believed in ours, you would as well.
 
Re: American Forces Said to Bomb ISIS Targets in Iraq

Diplomacy? With these kind of animals? Are you really this naive. They do not have your values so quit trying to apply your value to people whose radical ideology is all about an Islamic world caliphate

Islamic State's shocking barbarity prompts calls for world to act | Fox News

The most evil of brutality starts by dehumanizing a group. Calling them animals allows the human to do brutality because they're not human. It's a lie of course. But it's one that blinds the person calling a group animals.

Your political lean and your posts tell me pretty much what I need to know about you.
