I agree, that's the whole problem. If Isis can be headed off in Iraq than great but then they will just focus more attention elsewhere, mainly to Syria and like you say we can't start attacking them there because then we'd essentially be defending Assad. I don't think the West has a clue what to do now about Syria tbh, they might quietly be hoping that Assad's forces can actually defeat the Islamists there.

A USA General on All News
just said its temp that they are holding ISIS back for now
while try to help those on the Mountains.

So far ISIS has not blown a USA Helicopter
out of the sky.

why is it when you say that you sound like you want it to happen. asshole.

I agree with your assessment completely. the west is damned if they do and damned if they don't.

but there are innocent people trapped on a mountain, and i am proud for my tax dollars to help save as many of them as possible. I think it is a noble mission. It's about time we started making things right.

Wrong I do not want any Deaths.


But going in this late
things will go wrong.

Matt Wright on His Ch5HD show

[Bill O'Reilly really went after President Obama tonight for, he argued, failing to take any
concrete action to stop the spread of ISIS in Iraq. O’Reilly charged that Obama
“does not want to lead” and he has allowed a massive spread of terrorism under his watch.
O’Reilly found it unbelievable that the White House didn’t recognize any immediate danger
from these “killers.” He charged that for “one solid year,” Obama “did absolutely nothing to
contain this threat.” He even went so far as to say what’s happening now is comparable
to the lead-up to World War II, and there’s “no difference in the mentality of the Nazis and ISIS.”]

well, if your wife crashes the car you bought her...

Another day another crisis in the Middle East, the west has inadvertently caused this mess by their initial rush to War in Iraq in 2003. In their haste to topple Saddam they had no realistic plan to cope with the aftermath.

Years later and after a very dubious attempt to create a western leaning Iraqi Govt and army we watch in horror as large parts of that army with weapons supplied by the west decide not to go along with the western supported Govt of Maliki preferring instead to join the Isis group. a group so extreme that even Al Queda want nothing to do with them.

Now switch across to Syria another Country the west feels is ready for regime change and our old friend Assad is fighting dissent by his own population. So what does the west do ? It arms all the groups fighting against Assad as they are the enemy of my enemy so they must be my friends....right

Err...No actually they are the same terrorist extremists the west has been fighting in Iraq,Afghanistan,Libya they are no friend of the West.

Anyway now in our pretty little picture of Middle Eastern chaos we have large numbers of young Jihadists battle hardened with hatred against the west and their Non Sunni brothers...and armed to the teeth with weapons from Syria and the deserters from the Iraqi army.

So why wouldn't they try and set up their own Caliphate they have plenty of heavy weaponry billions of Dollars of stolen cash and lots of time and money to enjoy their murderous killing spree.

They say you reap what you sow, and boy how true is that now turning out to be.

Isis on the run

Wtf...???

Does it hurt your brain when you try to understand Middle eastern politics .

Best left to the adults I think, you should go back to reading your comics.

you haven't been discussing mid east politics though medusa, you have just been repeating the talking points you read on your conspiracy websites things you've probably read on Facebook.

You haven't expressed an individual thought or unique opinion yet.

There is no clean cut end goal here, the fighting will continue until everyone is dead or enough people have died on one side that another side "wins" and gains control of the region until the next uprising. The West shouldn't be getting involved, but of course we will because that's what we do. The mix of different religions and the stupid land borders that don't reflect reality and the meddling from outside influences have created this volatile cocktail and it's not going to go away if the West barges in and tries to placate each side; part of the problem is the West trying to tell everyone what to do is seriously offensive to most concerned parties. I think a major shake up of land divisions will unfold over the coming months and years and I think it'll only continue to escalate.
