Activists report dozens of Assyrian Christans kidnapped by ISIS

Terrible. I am all for sending weapons and training. America and our allies seem tired of war. The mess in the middle east requires middle east solutions. We should probably think about picking the next dictator until we are ready to take him out in the 2020's.


That has worked so well for you in Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan etc. may as well continue doing it. America isn't tired of fighting a war, their tired of losing wars. One day, and hopefully soon, a real commander in chief will arrive and teach these vermin whores some humility.

There was a terrorist gang once who got their jollies shoving a Jewish American overboard from the ship they had pirated. A guy by the name of Gaddafi thought he'd give America the finger too and gave them safe passage. Some time later, US bombers out of England dropped some serious ordinance on where Gaddafi had been a few hours earlier, they destroyed his home and killed his adopted son. Mr. Gaddafi remained humble for about 20 years after..

That was a president universally despised by the American left today. But, you know what? Ronald Reagan never had to apologize to anyone and American was one **** of a lot safer then than it is today. I would suggest at this point, that after 15 years and no progress, that going scorched earth and destroying their ability to make war is now in order.
 
ISIS and Iran are closer related than you might think-Iran has its hands all over the ME, even if its fighting ISIS.

So if we can't pin a nuke on them, we'll blame the Islamic State on them, whatever it takes to do another pre-emptive war.
 
Especially with Obama trying to cozy up like an ally to Iran.

Right, because Iran feels like an ally and all with Obama telling lies about them, and enforcing sanctions on them, and giving Bibi bunker buster to strike them with.
 
Iran is exerting influence all over the middle east. Its destabilizing other nations and nukes would also start a nuclear arms race there.
You dont want nukes there, son.

Sonny, I don't want nukes anywhere. I can't believe you have a problem with Iran helping in the fight against the Islamic state, that's retarded. And what's more, of course Iran is exerting influence in their neighborhood. And so what. Bush and Obama remove Hussein, Mubarak, Gaddafi and hope to remove Assad, all of which has hugely destabilized the region. There's no legitimacy here.

Iran is the largest state sponsor of terror, it just doesn't like this brand of terror. Do you believe that the world is fully of unicorns and rainbows?

I don't think the world is "fully" anything. It's confusing that you have a problem with Iran helping in the fight against the Islamic State, and typical of your fretting over others doing a little bit of what the US has done all over the world, including supporting terrorism.

So to be clear here-you think Iran really is a "good guy" eh?
 
So why would you want them to get nukes?

I don't want them to get nukes, have stated such repeatedly prefer global nuclear eradication. The Council on Foreign Relations has argued in favor of a nuclear weaponized Iran. However both US/Israeli Intel state that they aren't building them and that you're fear mongering again because you're a warmonger.

You aren't going to get the world to give up nukes even if you want to. But US and world policy CAN prevent Iran from getting nukes-it just takes resolve and commitment-that you are apparently not willing to give.

Just admit it, you are fine if they do.

I don't get how a peace prize recipient can fight FOR nuclear proliferation...

Us and Israeli intelligence tells me they aren't. Your fearful and warmongering position, is irrelevant to that.

We know what Irans doing. You dont need a ton of centrifuges refining uranium to higher than required levels for nuclear power because of anything but weapons. And they refused being supplied with uranium.

You know it, Iran knows it, I know it.
 
Bumping up your thread NB. :2bump:



Activist: ISIS now holds 262 Christians hostages in Syria......


ISIS has seized even more Assyrian Christian hostages after taking over nearly a dozen Assyrian villages in northeastern Syria in the past few days, an activist said Thursday. The Sunni extremist group now holds 262 Assyrians captive, said Osama Edward, founder of the Assyrian Human Rights Network.

The London-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights put the number of Assyrian hostages seized over three days at 220, in a statement released Thursday. They were taken from 11 villages in the Tal Tamer area in al-Hasakah Province, the monitoring group said. Its information indicates that ISIS has taken them to the Mount Abdelaziz area, southwest of Tal Tamer.....snip~

Us and Israeli intelligence services say otherwise. What does some dude on the island of Crete, or floating on a dingy in the middle of the Mediterranean (or wherever this place between Athens and Jerusalem is) know about what's going on inside Iran, without being told by those who have been there keeping an eye, hmm? Listen to what's being said by people that actually know, and not what Allen Colmes or Michelle Malkin are saying.
