That is why they ALL need to be investigated before being allowed to settle anywhere, it can be done if one actually cares to do so.

Thankfully most American citizens don't by into Obama's "religion of piece" rhetoric anymore.
Going forward the United states, Russia and other major countries will align to wipe out the oily desert rats, while house cleaning their own countries.
The US is already doing so by locking out supposed Syrian refugees, much to the ire of our temper tantrum throwing president.
It will be very interesting to see what Obamas final act of allegiance to Muslims will be before he and his brood are shown the curb on Pennsylvania Avenue.

You're being too much of a pacifist. Yeah, poor foreign policy decisions by western actors are partly to blame for MENA instability, but ISIS is acting on a totalitarian and theocratic pursuit that follow the tenants of Islam. Besides, ISIS finds its origins in a Shiite wing of the Saddam government.


As a liberal, I have to call out blind pacifism on this topic.

That's 180 degrees wrong. There was no "Shiite wing" of the Saddam government. Saddam's government was all Sunni, and ISIS is all Sunni. ISIS is opposed to Shiites, which is why Iran is assisting the current Shiite-led Iraqi government in fighting ISIS.

Actually they were 100% correct and I see you have nothing to refute their comments, noted.

That's 180 degrees wrong.

The expressed, specific reason Al Qaeda staged the WTC attacks--both of them--(as well as the USS Cole, Khobar Towers, and Somalia Embassy attacks) was because the US had forces based in Saudi Arabia, the Islamic holy land. Osama bin Laden had specifically said that was the reason for each of those attacks as they occurred and warned each time there would be future attacks until US forces were removed from Saudi Arabia.

Isn't it sad to see people attempt to speak on a topic they obviously have no knowledge of, good grief people, read up on a little history before jumping into the deep end of the pool.

Got the two mixed up, but my point still stands.
