Long video but important. A lot of information in this video.

I saw that earlier. Her statement just further demonstrates just how clueless this administration is with regards to Islamic terrorism/radicalism.

I recognize these "people" as nothing more than savage animals, fighting for a 9th century superstition. One that is leading to the slaughter of a lot of innocent people. At the same time, I say NO to US involvement. Not our country, not worth the life of an American serviceman. It's time for the people of the ME to stand up to these animals and put them down. Not for our people to fight and die to stop butchery in the ME again.

Plenty of gay men have been tossed off a roof to their death by an ISIS terrorist with a job.

You could say the same thing about gainfully employed ISIS terrorists who rape little girls, and cut their heads off.

If I was on Tweeter i might tweet that, so anyone else is welcome to do so for me. LOL

I half agree with you. Not our job. The other half though....Is kind of true, when theres abject poverty, and no future....people will do barbaric things. If they did have jobs and income things might not be as bad. ISIS might not exist.

But there isnt, and thats not going to change.

Looks like some entrepreneurs have already started businesses making orange jumpsuits, ISIS flags, human cages and mounting machine guns on pick up trucks.

How has ISIS become one of the richest ever militant groups? - CNN.com

"as have reports that put the jihadist group's wealth as high as $2 billion"

Good, I guess we can expect this all to end soon.

Maybe if Osama bin Laden hadn't been poor and out of economic opportunity, we would have never had al qaeda either....

What an absolute idiot.

The ONLY solution is to withdraw from the entire area and let them do what they have been doing for centuries. This fight is not win-able which has been proven over and over again.

But not that often. India and many other countries have abject poverty and they don't do what ISIS does. I don't see the cause and effect here.

ISIS are near the town where our marines are. What will Obama do if our soldiers are captured and beheaded on camera? He won't let them fight to save themselves so will he let them die? How about his, "we leave no one behind"?

I heard the soldiers going over to Iraq now pretty much consider themselves sitting ducks. I agree you don't go to war with your hands tied but that is what Obama wants now.

The easy solution is to just leave. Forever.
