| Islamic State's brutality |

| [DAWN] IT remains to be seen whether the strong verbal reaction to the recent burning to death of a Jordanian pilot and the beheading of two Japanese hostages will translate into a punitive response to the so-called Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... 's threat to human values in the cradle of civilisation. The barbaric form of death inflicted on Jordan's Moaz al-Kasasbeh and the killing of the Japanese hostages are only two examples of IS brutality in a long list of crimes against humanity since the group began its murderous but unstoppable military advance from western Iraq to sweep into Syria and reach the Turkish border. Jordan's King Abdullah II vowed an "earth-shattering response", Saudi King Salman ...either the largest species of Pacific salmon or the current Sheikh of the Burnin' Sands, Cutodian of the Two Holy Mosquesand Lord of Most of the Arabians.... bin Abdul Aziz called the pilot's murder an "odious crime", Al Azhar denounced it as un-Islamic, while the UAE said this was "a brutal escalation" of the war by the terrorist group. An angry Japanese prime minister, Shinzo Abe, pledged his government's continued support to the war on terror, and US President Barack Obama Jedi mind meld... promised "decisive action". But, despite this diplomatic rhetoric, the situation on the ground hasn't changed much, and the IS militia looks unbeaten. The only setback the forces of Evil have suffered is their failure to take Kobane. But this relative success for the US-led coalition was due to the tenacity shown by the Kurdish fighters. Jordan has responded by hanging two jihadists, but, as remarked by the dead pilot's father, execution is no response, because what is missing is a concerted military offensive commensurate with the task involved. In fact, it is surprising that, with such a massive military presence in the region, the US is unable to reverse the IS tide. Also puzzling is Turkey's aloofness from the events unfolding in its 'underbelly', as is the total absence from the scene of the Iraqi government. The truth is that vast sections of people in the Middle East do not believe all parties in the US-led coalition have their heart in the fighting, and the Islamic State's forces of Evil enjoy many parties' tacit sympathy. |

| #1 "Despite its massive military presence in the region the US is unable to stem the ISIS tide" ... Goes to Leadership, Guts, + Agendum - you know, OWG GLOBALISM??? * E.G. TOPIX > [Forbes] [US-led]"PROXY WAR WID RUSSIA LIKELY A HOLLOW THREAT. * MANILA TIMES > HOW OBAMA'S DEFENSE BUDGET IMPACTS ASIA. IMO "pre-selecting", "scalpelizing" and or [super?] "micro/nano-managing" Any Each + All possible US military responses or counter-response. ARTIC = The Bammer's budget is above the USDOD spending cap which in turn formally places major cuts, restrictions, or limits, etc. on same. SENDING A NIMITZ-CLASS, ETC. INTO HARMS WAY WID ONLY 10-40 TOTE AIRCRAFT ABOARD, NOT 80-100. * SAME > NETCITIZENS SHOCKED BY AQUINO'S "INACTION" ON MAMASAPANO. Again, PH President Aquino = doing a poten "POTUS Obama" on Mamasapano + China's island -building in SCS??? US actions, or lack of same, due to ... * BIGNEWSNETWORK > [Prensa Latina] WORLD MOVING TOWARD POLYCENTRIC ORDER, SAYS RUSSIAN OFFICIAL. Russian Deputy FM Vasili Natenya. OWG-NWO = AKA SPACE GOVT.ORDER = SEVEN OWG GLOBAL FEDERAL UNIONS ON SEVEN [Five?] KNOWN [Inhabited] CONTINENTS HEADED BY ONE OR MORE P-A-R, "US-STYLE", "CO-SUPERPOWERS". The "Sole" Superpower USA must unilaterally voluntarily [forcibly?] give up Power-n-Influence around the World so that its OWG Globalist Siblings can rise to parity. AGAIN, MILPOL OR GEOPOL "PARITY" WID THE US, N-O-T INFERIORITY. "PARITY" also read, POTENT ECONOMY + NUKES. This is born NUKULAAR IRAN. "The Devil is in the Details", as the old saying goes. |
