One picture tells the whole story. No need to watch Fox re-write it for its dumbed down loyal viewing audience. The most easily fear-mongered bunch of rubes in the world.
I am beginning to think
I don't argue your "facts". Way too many gaps in your narrative. Very Clintonian.I am beginning to think
Good for you. Why not argue the facts rather than pretending to be a comedian too. It is a historical and definite fact that Iran gained access and greater influence in Iraq as a result of Bush43's bombing and Blitzkrieg into Iraq to secure the most lethal weapons ever devised from falling into the hands of terrorists.
It's not about Bush as much as it is about current Republican denial of historical fact when forming opinions about the current situation in that part of the world.
You have no concept of what's going on today when you suggest Obama is supposed to be enforcing the rules in Iraq. Whatever the hell 'enforce the rules' could possibly mean. You learned nothing from 4484 dead Americans in Iraq. Absolutely nothing.
I don't argue your "facts". Way too many gaps in your narrative. Very Clintonian.
Obama said he will destroy ISIS...how will he do that without forcing his rules?
.
“Our objective is clear: We will degrade, and ultimately destroy, ISIL through a comprehensive and sustained counter-terrorism strategy.”

THE FOUR PARTS OF THE U.S. STRATEGY
In his address, the President outlined the four key parts of the United States’ strategy to defeat ISIL:
1. A systematic campaign of airstrikes against ISIL
Working with the Iraqi government, we will expand our efforts beyond protecting our own people and humanitarian missions, so that we’re hitting ISIL targets as Iraqi forces go on offense. Moreover, I have made it clear that we will hunt down terrorists who threaten our country, wherever they are. That means I will not hesitate to take action against ISIL in Syria, as well as Iraq. This is a core principle of my presidency: If you threaten America, you will find no safe haven.
2. Increased support to forces fighting ISIL on the ground
In June, I deployed several hundred American servicemembers to Iraq to assess how we can best support Iraqi security forces. Now that those teams have completed their work –- and Iraq has formed a government –- we will send an additional 475 servicemembers to Iraq. As I have said before, these American forces will not have a combat mission –- we will not get dragged into another ground war in Iraq. But they are needed to support Iraqi and Kurdish forces with training, intelligence and equipment. We’ll also support Iraq’s efforts to stand up National Guard Units to help Sunni communities secure their own freedom from ISIL’s control.
Across the border, in Syria, we have ramped up our military assistance to the Syrian opposition. Tonight, I call on Congress again to give us additional authorities and resources to train and equip these fighters. In the fight against ISIL, we cannot rely on an Assad regime that terrorizes its own people -- a regime that will never regain the legitimacy it has lost. Instead, we must strengthen the opposition as the best counterweight to extremists like ISIL, while pursuing the political solution necessary to solve Syria’s crisis once and for all.
3. Drawing on our substantial counterterrorism capabilities to prevent ISIL attacks
Working with our partners, we will redouble our efforts to cut off its funding; improve our intelligence; strengthen our defenses; counter its warped ideology; and stem the flow of foreign fighters into and out of the Middle East. And in two weeks, I will chair a meeting of the U.N. Security Council to further mobilize the international community around this effort.
4. Providing humanitarian assistance to innocent civilians displaced by ISIL
This includes Sunni and Shia Muslims who are at grave risk, as well as tens of thousands of Christians and other religious minorities. We cannot allow these communities to be driven from their ancient homelands.
“This is our strategy,” the President said, adding that the United States has a “broad coalition of partners” joining us in this effort:
Already, allies are flying planes with us over Iraq; sending arms and assistance to Iraqi security forces and the Syrian opposition; sharing intelligence; and providing billions of dollars in humanitarian aid. Secretary Kerry was in Iraq today meeting with the new government and supporting their efforts to promote unity. And in the coming days he will travel across the Middle East and Europe to enlist more partners in this fight, especially Arab nations who can help mobilize Sunni communities in Iraq and Syria, to drive these terrorists from their lands. This is American leadership at its best: We stand with people who fight for their own freedom, and we rally other nations on behalf of our common security and common humanity.

Grand Ayatollah Wants Sunnis Armed; 143 Killed in Iraq
by Margaret Griffis, March 06, 2015
Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, the highest-ranking Shi’ite cleric in Iraq, called on the government to provide weapons and supplies to Sunnis in Anbar province. During his Friday sermon, he said that the Sunnis in Anbar have shown a patriotic attitude against the militants, but the shortages they are suffering could encourage them to change their sides. He also warned militiamen not to seek revenge on civilians.
Way too many gaps in your narrative.
And your Shiia friends are committing atrocities just like ISIS..
. ...and where is this coalition you are dreaming about?
How many American casualties?
