U.S. Dithers on Weighing Direct Military Assistance to Iraq
2014-06-13
[ONLINE.WSJ] The U.S. is weighing direct military assistance to Iraq, including possible airstrikes, where Sunni militants have seized control of some major Iraqi cities and have vowed to march on areas revered by Shiite Muslims.
Weighing airstrikes? What's to weigh? And Maliki asked days ago.
"What we have seen over the last couple of days indicates the degree to which Iraq is going to need more help--more help from us and more help from the international community," President Barack Obama bloviated.
Do you get the impression it would be really boring to play chess with the Smartest Man in the Room"?

#3  Isn't the US a wonderful place? Makes you proud to know we have such Leadership and honest sagacious, and prudent timely Leadership too.

The Messiah and NBC and the progs are doing their thing. How could it get any better?

YOU voted for them TWICE. What does that make you? It makes you an asscrack at Walmart. The US DESERVES Bozo. Remind me again why Obama got the Nobel. Cheeseballs, anyone?

#1  These assholes are just nNOW claiming to be considering action? When the IQ govt has been begging for drone zaps and intel in the NW part of the country for quite a while?

Fuck You, Obama, you and your shitstick Sec States (Lurch now, and Hillary who previously set up this massive CF) are getting good people and their families beheaded, and now giving a huge chunk of territory and half a billion dollars in looting to ISIL - a bunch of terrs that were so extreme that Al Qaeda kicked them out!

If the fucktards in the press try to bury this one, then we should start burying our press for lying to us.
