Decimated al Qaeda Captures Mosul & Tikrit Iraq

[mudwhistle]

They have Fallujah.

they actually have a large foothold

in Iraq Ramadi and Falluja and in the process of sacking Mosul

while holding

Aleppo Ar Raqqah in Syria

I think these guys had this planned for years and waited for us to pull everyone out before they took these cities.

Ya think?

 

[Moonglow]

Yeah, it's Booooooooooooooosh.

If they take the Iraqi oil fields then they can threaten the Kuwaiti oil fields, and then the Saudi Oil fields.

Simply taking them in Iraq will help drive up our costs at the pump because of the reduction of available oil. When you see a jump in price you can blame Bush for it.

We get very little of our oil from that region.

And maybe, you know, we might actually start looking at a sensible energy policy rather than trying to play hall monitor inthe MIddle East.

But you want to keep making sweet, sweet love to that Hornet's Nest, don't you?

Your president occupies the White House dummy.

Who do you think is tasked with setting energy policy in this country, the Tea Party?

And anyone who has any sense knows that oil prices are controlled by the dollar and the world market.

Are you really this stupid?

Obama likes the 2005 Energy Act. It has all the legislation in it for renewable and petroleum incentives..

 

[mudwhistle]

I know, Iraq is falling because the Repubs cut funding.....

 

[mudwhistle]

I thought they had Fallujah?

They have Fallujah.

The American Embassy is in Baghdad, what happens when they take that city? have we evacuated our personnel yet?

This is all because of some disgusting video.

of course that is what happens when you announce that

you are going to quit and go home

They have Fallujah.

we are preparing to leave

then the terrorists will have a 700 million dollar castle

to call home

 

[mudwhistle]

I'm watching a funeral detail practice right now in person.

I'd like to see the day these aren' t necessary, but I don't feel selling the farm to get out of difficulty is worth the alternatives.

 

[Jack203]

ISIS - the same guys fighting the Syrian regime. Reps wanted to arm them more. Brilliant.

 

[Spoonman]

Yup. al Qaeda has been decimated. And they just captured another Iraqi city.

TIKRIT Iraq (Reuters) - Sunni rebels from an al Qaeda splinter group overran the Iraqi city of Tikrit on Wednesday and closed in on the biggest oil refinery in the country, making further gains in their rapid military advance against the Shi'ite-led government in Baghdad.

The threat to the Baiji refinery comes after militants from the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) seized the northern city of Mosul, advancing their aim of creating a Sunni Caliphate straddling the border between Iraq and Syria.

The fall of Mosul, Iraq's second biggest city, is a blow to Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki's attempts to defeat the militants, who have seized territory in Iraq over the past year following the withdrawal of U.S. forces.

About 500,000 Iraqis have fled Mosul, home to 2 million people, and the surrounding province, many seeking safety in the autonomous Kurdistan region.

Having also taken two small towns north of Baghdad, Dhiluiya and Yathrib, the insurgents are in control of between 10 and 15 pct of Iraqi territory, excluding Kurdistan, and have led many Iraqis to fear they have the capital, Baghdad, in their sights.

Security sources said ISIL militants on Wednesday drove more than 60 vehicles into Tikrit, the home town of former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein, which lies about 100 miles (160 km) north of Baghdad.

The militants occupied the provincial government headquarters and raised the black flag of ISIL.​

Iraq insurgents take Saddam's home town in lightning advance

Amazing, yet with all of the issues facing the US President today, including this, jobs, the economy, healthcare, seniors who cant afford to retire, the national debt, foriegn policy issues, crumbling infrastructure, a partisan congress who americans have lost faith in, the number one regret he has for his presidency that he has not been able to address is to pass gun control.

Thats what you get from a president whos primnary interests are focused on his own agenda rather than america.

He is more concerned with taking away your rights than addressing our problems

Maybe that is an indication of the source of our problems.

Democrats used so much time an energy dragging us through the mud, so that a shitforbrains community-organiser seemed a reasonable option.

I thought it was because the Miami Heat are behind in the NBA Finals. The Iraqis love them some Lebron.

Detonate the place with explosives than, fuck them.

Only the Shiites back Miami.

The Sunnis are backing SA and Terrible Tim.

This just shows how much more worse off Iraq is than even when Saddam was at the helm.

At least we had that guy cornered and fly-zoned and internationally sanctioned.

Ever since the retarded neo-cons went in there promising us we'd be greeted as liberators, in came Al Qaeda and now a splinter group to help make things even more FUBAR than they are now.

Had America never stuck her nose into Middle East affairs in 1954 and then beyond, Europe, Russia and Asia would be the ones forever trying to meddle over there while we would get to be the wise and great superpower that we know we are capable of being.

 

[JakeStarkey]

Boooooooooooosh!

Doesn't work. Your King Bush failed the Iraqi and American peoples.

He was warned what would happen if he did not keep the necessary number of troops in the country.

Yea, it did come to pass in the days of the evil king and his advisors that their plans failed, and they sat at the side of road pouring ashes onto their heads.

Project much?

Not at all. What was predicted, Bush failed, and the country suffers until today and beyond for it.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

There was no ISIL or al quida in Iraq until bush the lesser said "bring it on" , so now because of that little born again half wit Iraq is worse now then with Saddam

Boooooooooooosh!

You know Obama's been President these past 6 years, right?

Obama likes the 2005 Energy Act. It has all the legislation in it for renewable and petroleum incentives..

That explains why he keeps cutting off our alternatives.

Listen to NPR.

Right now they're talking about the terrible side effects of fracking.

Sean Pean and Matt Damon could team up to make an academy award winning movie showing the evils of fossil fuels. The China Syndrome did in the nuke industry in America.

Remember:
"I'M GONNA SUCK YOUR MILKSHAKE!!!

Liberals have been an albatross around our necks for decades.

 

[LockeJaw]

I'm not going to blame this entirely on Obama, Bush Jr. Deserves the most credit for this if you are fair about it....

Let's go spread dermocercy! Merkuh! Fuck Yeah!

Obama was a lazy fuck in the Senate, and he's the same as POTUS.

I figure if he couldn't handle the job he shouldn't have run....
